Facilities With Electrical Infrastructure They Cannot Afford to Lose.

Premier works with facilities where an electrical failure is not an inconvenience but a production stoppage — manufacturing plants first, and any facility carrying critical electrical infrastructure alongside them.

Manufacturing & Industrial

01
Manufacturing Plants

Where downtime is measured against a production rate. Distribution equipment that has been expanded around for decades, and a maintenance department already at capacity on the machines themselves.

02
Automotive Suppliers

Tier one and tier two operations running to customer schedules with real penalties attached. High drive density, and line stoppages that get escalated the same day.

03
Food & Beverage Manufacturing

Washdown environments, refrigeration loads that cannot be interrupted, and product loss that turns a short electrical fault into a long financial one.

04
Plastics Manufacturing

Injection and extrusion loads with heavy heater banks and drive content. Thermal and harmonic problems are common and rarely investigated until something fails.

05
Metal Fabrication

Welding, cutting and forming operations with the load-cycling and imbalance issues that come with them, in environments hard on electrical equipment.

06
Machine Shops

High machine-tool density, sensitive controls, and drives that are expensive to replace repeatedly when the underlying cause is never established.

07
Processing Facilities

Continuous process operations where an unplanned stop is not just lost time but a restart procedure and often lost material.

08
Chemical Facilities

Where electrical reliability is a safety matter as much as a production one, and documentation carries weight beyond maintenance planning.

Commercial, Utility & Critical Facilities

09
Warehouses & Distribution

Large distributed lighting and conveyor loads, dock equipment, refrigerated sections, and long feeder runs across a big footprint.

10
Large Commercial Facilities

Multi-building campuses, hospitals, schools and institutional properties with substantial distribution and deferred documentation.

11
Data Centers

Where the electrical system is the product. UPS, battery, generator and transfer equipment carrying the load that everything else depends on.

12
Utilities

Substation and distribution equipment condition assessment, thermographic inspection and documentation support.

13
Critical Electrical Infrastructure

Any facility where the consequence of an electrical failure is measured in something other than an electrician’s time — regardless of what the building does.

What These Facilities Have in Common

The industry varies. The electrical situation rarely does.

  • The system was engineered once and has been added to ever since.
  • The one-line does not reflect the last two expansions.
  • Maintenance is well run on rotating equipment and thin on distribution.
  • Some equipment is at or past its expected service life and nobody has quantified which.
  • Drive and non-linear load content has grown considerably since the system was sized.
  • There is at least one recurring electrical problem that has been lived with for years.
  • Electrical work is reactive because there is no data on which to be proactive.

None of that reflects badly on anybody. It is what happens when a facility runs long enough and nobody has been given ownership of the electrical system as a whole.

Service Area

Premier serves the Northeast Ohio industrial corridor. Assessment and inspection work regularly takes us across the region — travel is not the constraint on where we work.

  • Canton
  • Massillon
  • Akron
  • Alliance
  • Wooster
  • Medina
  • Cleveland
  • Barberton
  • North Canton
  • Orrville
  • Dover
  • New Philadelphia
  • Ravenna
  • Kent
  • Cuyahoga Falls
  • Stark County — Canton, Massillon, Alliance, North Canton and the surrounding industrial base.
  • Summit County — Akron, Barberton, Cuyahoga Falls and the Route 8 corridor.
  • Wayne County — Wooster, Orrville and the county’s manufacturing and food processing operations.
  • Medina County — Medina, Wadsworth and the I-71 industrial parks.
  • Cuyahoga, Portage, Tuscarawas and Carroll counties and the wider Northeast Ohio region.

If your facility sits outside these counties but the work is a fit, ask anyway.
