Expansions, Upgrades, and Renovations
When your business’s power needs grow, expanding or upgrading your existing electrical system is often the most cost-effective solution. We specialize in adding to most switchboards, whether NEMA 1 or NEMA 3R, with hard-bussed connections for a hassle-free installation. From simple enclosure additions to larger upgrades, our tailored solutions allow you to increase your system’s capacity without replacing the complete existing installation. Whether it’s adding circuits, integrating new technology, or expanding your power infrastructure, we provide efficient, compliant, and cost-effective enhancements to support your business’s growth.

Switchgear Retrofits
Established in 1978, Pacific Electric is your Premier Low Voltage and Medium Voltage Power Distribution Equipment Solutions provider.
Our retrofitting services include circuit breaker additions, fusible switch additions, bus bar replacements, and sheet metal replacements, designed to enhance performance and extend system longevity.
By upgrading rather than replacing equipment, you save on the costs and time associated with purchasing and installing new systems. Retrofits also minimize downtime and keep production running smoothly. Additionally, we provide precise dimensional drawings to ensure hassle-free job site assembly.
Why Upgrade? Switchboard performance decline can be attributed to:
Increased short circuit availability
Changes in environment
Aging components
Load changes
Insulation deterioration
Natural wear and tear
