Our engineers can help you to design and build systems that are tailored to your specific needs. Trust us to deliver electrical systems that are efficient, effective, and designed to last.
What is electrical installation design?
Electrical installation design is the engineering process of planning and specifying all aspects of an electrical system before construction or installation begins. This includes determining the layout of distribution equipment, sizing conductors and protective devices, selecting appropriate equipment, and producing detailed drawings and specifications that guide the installation work. A well-executed electrical installation design ensures the finished system is safe, reliable, code-compliant, and optimized for your specific operational requirements.
What electrical installation design services does RW Electric provide?
RW Electric: A Division of KROON provides comprehensive electrical installation design services for commercial and industrial clients. Services include system layout and design, equipment selection and specification, load calculations, single line diagram development, conduit and cable routing design, lighting design, emergency and standby power system design, and the production of complete drawing packages for permitting and construction. RW Electric’s engineers manage the design process from initial concept through to construction-ready documentation.
What types of projects does RW Electric provide electrical installation design for?
RW Electric provides electrical installation design for a broad range of project types including new commercial and industrial construction, facility expansions and renovations, electrical system upgrades, manufacturing and process installations, substation and distribution system design, and specialty electrical installations. Whether your project is a straightforward upgrade or a complex multi-system installation, RW Electric’s engineers have the expertise to deliver a design that meets your requirements.
How does RW Electric ensure designs meet applicable codes and standards?
All electrical installation designs produced by RW Electric are developed in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), Ontario Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) requirements, applicable building codes, and any project-specific standards or specifications. RW Electric’s engineers are experienced in navigating the regulatory requirements that apply to electrical installations in Ontario and across Canada, ensuring designs are approvable and compliant from the outset.
Can RW Electric manage both the design and construction of an electrical installation?
Yes. RW Electric provides both design and construction services, giving clients the option of a fully integrated design-build delivery model. Under this approach, RW Electric takes responsibility for both the electrical design and the installation — providing a single point of accountability from concept through to commissioning. This integrated approach reduces coordination risk, shortens project timelines, and simplifies contract management for the client.
What deliverables does RW Electric provide as part of an electrical installation design?
RW Electric’s electrical installation design deliverables typically include a complete drawing package covering single line diagrams, floor plan layouts, panel schedules, conduit and cable routing drawings, equipment specifications, and load calculations. The package is developed to the level of detail required for permitting, tendering, and construction, and is tailored to the specific requirements of each project.
How does RW Electric approach the design of electrical systems for complex or specialized facilities?
RW Electric’s engineers bring extensive experience with complex and specialized electrical installations — including high voltage systems, industrial process installations, emergency power systems, and facilities with demanding reliability requirements. RW Electric works closely with clients and other project disciplines to understand the full operational context of each installation and develop a design that addresses both current requirements and future flexibility needs.
Where does RW Electric provide electrical installation design services?
RW Electric: A Division of KROON provides electrical installation design services throughout Kingston and Eastern Ontario, and through the BCES Global network of subsidiary companies, across the rest of North America.
