Industrial Electrical
24/7 breakdown service, switchboard design and manufacture, motor control centres, and ongoing maintenance. When your plant stops, we answer the phone.
Complete In-House Engineering
From initial drawings to final handover, every step under one roof.
Electrical schematics, layouts, cable schedules, I/O lists
In-house workshop, not subcontracted
Cable installation and termination
Mechanical and electrical plant fit-out
Testing, tuning, handover
Most industrial electrical contractors handle two or three of these steps and subcontract the rest. All Plant Engineering carries the full chain under one roof: one point of responsibility, one consistent documentation set, and no gaps between design intent and what gets built on site.
Service That Understands Plants
Our electrical team works across all industrial sectors, not just concrete batching. The common thread is plants where downtime is expensive: ready-mix concrete operations losing a pour, quarrying and materials handling lines, food and beverage processing, manufacturing operations with continuous processes. In these environments, the response time and quality of the diagnosis matter more than the hourly rate.
The 24/7 breakdown service is how many of our long-term maintenance relationships start. A plant goes down at 2am, a VSD fault, a blown control fuse, a sensor that fails on the night shift when the only people on site are operators. All Plant Engineering responds, diagnoses correctly the first time, and gets the plant running. The quality of that response is what turns a one-off emergency call into a maintenance contract. A generic electrician who shows up three hours later and replaces the obvious component without understanding why it failed doesn't deliver the same outcome.
Switchboard and MCC (Motor Control Centre) design and manufacture draws on the same in-house capability as our control system design division. Professionally designed, built in our workshop, tested before it leaves the building. Main switchboards, sub-boards, distribution boards, and full motor control centres with VSD integration, soft starters, DOL starters, and star-delta configurations. The same principle applies as with control panels: the designer and the builder are in the same building, which means problems get resolved at the design and build stage rather than on site.
Machinery safety upgrades are a compliance requirement that many plants defer until an incident forces the issue. All Plant Engineering works to AS4024, the Australian Machinery Safety standard, providing risk assessment, guarding interlock design, safety relay and safety PLC integration, and documentation packages for compliance audits. The goal is not to gold-plate a safety system but to implement what's appropriate for the hazard level, documented in a way that withstands regulatory scrutiny.
Calibration and testing services round out the maintenance offering: instrumentation calibration, thermographic scanning to identify hot spots before they become failures and protection relay testing to verify that relays will actually trip under the fault conditions they're specified for. These are the services that prevent breakdowns, and that give plant managers the documented evidence that their equipment is being maintained to a defensible standard.
Industrial Electrical Services
The full scope of All Plant Engineering's industrial electrical capability, from emergency response through to scheduled maintenance programs.
24/7 Breakdown Service
Emergency response for industrial plant breakdowns, any time, any day. Fault diagnosis by electricians who understand industrial plant, not residential maintenance tradespeople. Getting your plant running is the priority. First-time fix rate matters more than hourly rate when downtime is costing production.
Switchboard Design & Build
Professionally designed, workshop-built, tested before delivery. Main switchboards, sub-boards, and distribution boards from single feeder replacements to full main switchboard upgrades. In-house design and manufacture means the documentation set matches the physical board, not an approximation drawn after the build.
Motor Control Centres
MCC design, manufacture, and installation. VSD integration with proper input and output filtering, soft starter configurations, DOL and star-delta starters. Motor protection relay selection and settings. MCCs designed for the specific motor load profile and duty cycle, not assembled from a standard template.
Machinery Safety
AS4024 Machinery Safety standard compliance. Risk assessment, guarding interlock design, safety relay and safety PLC integration. Documentation packages for compliance audits: risk register, functional safety specification, verification and validation records. Upgrades for existing machinery that doesn't meet current requirements.
Calibration & Testing
Instrumentation calibration with traceable certificates. Thermographic scanning to identify overloaded connections, failing contactors, and underperforming capacitors before they cause unplanned outages. Protection relay testing to verify trip setpoints and timing against the protection philosophy document.
Preventive Maintenance
Scheduled maintenance programs tailored to your plant's equipment and production schedule. Thermal imaging surveys, connection tightness checks, insulation resistance testing, VSD inspection and filter replacement, and switchboard cleaning. Documented maintenance records that demonstrate due diligence for insurance and compliance purposes.
