Safer power. Resilient systems. Verified delivery.

Service & Distribution

Compare capacity, selective coordination, equipment, shutdowns and commissioning.

Lighting & Controls

Align fixture performance, controls, emergency lighting and maintainability.

EV Infrastructure

Plan utility capacity, load management, networking and future expansion.

Emergency & Resilient Power

Coordinate generators, transfer systems, testing and closeout documentation.

Code, credential and scope intelligence

Electrical proposal intelligence for Ontario projects.

Electrical comparisons are classified by occupancy, voltage, service capacity, life-safety impact and the authority having jurisdiction. Every price is checked against installation, inspection and acceptance evidence.

01

Licensed contractor

Hired electrical work in Ontario must be performed by a Licensed Electrical Contractor, subject to the applicable exceptions.

Evidence to captureESA licence number, company identity and current status
02

Notification and inspection

Almost all electrical work requires an ESA notification. Work that will be concealed should not be covered before the required inspection.

Evidence to captureNotification number, inspection stages and fee responsibility
03

Capacity and protection

Compare load calculations, available fault current, protection, grounding, service upgrades, shutdowns and utility coordination.

Evidence to captureOne-line diagram, load study, panel schedules and utility scope
04

Complete installation

Normalize equipment, feeders, raceways, controls, firestopping, labelling, testing, permits, demolition and restoration.

Evidence to captureItemized scope, makes/models, quantities, exclusions and alternates
05

Final acceptance

Closeout should include the ESA Certificate of Acceptance, test reports, as-builts, settings, training, warranties and updated insurance/WSIB evidence.
