Specialized High-Voltage Services
Our team combines hands-on fieldwork with advanced diagnostic equipment to deliver comprehensive substation solutions. Whether you're managing routine maintenance, responding to equipment degradation, or planning capital improvements, we bring the technical depth and compliance expertise your operation requires.
-
SF6 Leak Detection and Repair
Identify and eliminate costly SF6 leaks with infrared imaging and portable gas analyzers. We handle detection, certified repair, post-repair verification, and full EPA compliance documentation.
-
Methane Leak Detection
Advanced optical gas imaging and portable detection across pipelines, valves, storage facilities, and compressor stations. Detailed reports with leak locations and severity estimates for your compliance records.
-
Circuit Breaker Repair and Refurbishment
Complete teardown, remanufacturing, and testing of circuit breakers from 12kV to 500kV. We restore your breakers to factory specifications, delivering the performance of new equipment without the capital expense.
-
High Voltage Consulting
Strategic guidance on equipment lifecycle, upgrade planning, root cause analysis, and regulatory compliance. Access specialized field knowledge without building a large in-house specialist team.
-
Maintenance and Consulting
Customized maintenance programs, thermal imaging diagnostics, battery installations, and preventive service plans. We help you extend equipment life and avoid unplanned outages through proactive care.
-
Infrared Thermography Inspection
No-outage thermal imaging surveys of energized substations and switchyards, with every finding graded against NETA Table 100.18 temperature-difference criteria and a recommended action for each.
-
Partial Discharge Testing
Acoustic imaging surveys that locate partial discharge on energized equipment, classify it by type and grade its severity, so the right repair happens before insulation breaks down.
-
Transformer Testing and Oil Analysis
Transformer testing and condition assessment, with dissolved gas analysis and thermal monitoring that track transformer health between scheduled tests.
SF6 Leak Detection
and Repair
Sulfur hexafluoride is a greenhouse gas 23,500 times more potent than CO2 over a 100-year horizon. Regulatory pressure from the EPA, combined with rising operational costs, makes SF6 management critical for substations across North America. Even minor leaks compound quickly, degrading insulation performance and creating compliance violations.
We deploy specialized infrared imaging cameras, portable gas analyzers, and certified repair protocols to identify leaks with pinpoint accuracy. Our technicians document every repair with pressure decay testing and atmospheric concentration verification, providing the evidence regulators require.

Field-Tested Expertise for Critical Infrastructure
Hands-On Technical Team
We're not a broker connecting you to contractors. Every technician carries field experience and EPA certification. When we show up, you get real expertise from people who understand substation operations in the trenches.
Full-Spectrum Voltage Coverage
From distribution substations at 12kV to transmission infrastructure at 500kV and higher, our equipment and training span the full voltage spectrum. One technician, one vendor, no coordination headaches.
Environmental Compliance Built In
EPA reporting, SF6 tracking, and comprehensive leak documentation are built into every job. We help you stay compliant, avoid penalties, and maintain the paper trail regulators expect.
Nationwide Deployment
We maintain field teams and supply caches in California and Montana, positioning us to reach most continental US locations within 24 hours. Emergency response isn't a promise; it's our standard operating practice.
Technical Resources for Substation Operators
We publish field guides, maintenance checklists, and diagnostic protocols to help you manage substation operations more effectively. Access our resource hub to stay current on industry best practices and regulatory updates.
