Motors communicate before they fail, but only if you know what to listen for. Electrical noise and mechanical noise mean very different things, and diagnosing the wrong one first can cost you time, money, and unnecessary downtime!

Your circuit breakers are supposed to protect your facility. But if they haven't been tested, you don't actually know if they will.

Switchgear and circuit breaker maintenance is one of the most underrated items on a maintenance team's checklist. Testing your electrical distribution equipment helps you avoid dangerous situations, extend equipment life, and stay ahead of failures that don't announce themselves.

IE performs acceptance and maintenance testing on low and medium-voltage switchgear, transformers, relays, transfer switches, and more, all to NETA standards, on-site or in-shop. We also offer complete circuit breaker rebuilds and retrofits to modernize your older (but sturdy) breakers.
