Healthcare/Medical Electrical Services

No medical facility can afford power problems of any kind. That’s why hospitals, clinics, and labs across greater San Diego turn to Premo Electric. Our expertise with medical centers ensures we can help you fix current problems and prevent future problems.

We care for your electrical system the same way you care for your patients. You can call us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In most cases we’re able to provide same-day service, because we know you (and your patients) have no time to lose.

You’d be surprised to find out how many medical centers experience trouble.

State-of-the-art medical equipment, but ancient power system?

As Healthcare Facilities Today reports, many medical facilities are burdened with outdated electrical systems just waiting to cause problems at the worst times. Some facilities even have dangerous counterfeit products in their systems.

Retrofitting those facilities presents challenges, but it’s better than riding old and unsafe systems to the bottom. Updating your electrical system isn’t about installation alone. Stringent codes govern all medical facilities, and compliance isn’t easy. And there’s no room for error: too many lives and livelihoods depend on everything functioning as it should. Updating your electrical system requires the same level of engineering required to outfit a brand new building. We’ve done both. 

Adding a new hospital wing? The renovation will have to be wired up and integrated into your existing electrical system. Even reworking a wing requires seamless attention to detail.

You’ll want specialists familiar with National Electrical Code (NEC) standards for hospitals. We know when and where to install hospital-grade, tamper-proof plugs and receptacles, when GFCIs are a better choice, and which systems require low-voltage wiring. Calling us means getting the peace of mind that comes with knowing your facility will be wired correctly.

Is your facility equipped for stormy weather?

Every medical facility needs a backup generator and other emergency power systems, to make sure no patient’s life is threatened by a sudden failure.

You don’t want just any electrician to do this for you. Small, careless errors can have big consequences. For example, EC&M reports one California electrical contractor came close to causing a major crisis by failing to install the automatic transfer switch required to get the generator on in the event of an outage. Although nobody was hurt that time, errors like that often turn out differently. We check and double-check every aspect of our work. See our backup generator and emergency power page for more information.
