Electrical
Our electrical engineering expertise spans the discipline from source to end use. We design the generating stations and systems that power our communities, ensure emergency centres have reliable backups, plan fire protection systems that save lives, design buildings to meet the highest green standards, and automate industrial processes to increase productivity. On every project, our electrical engineers aim to deliver safe, dependable, energy efficient solutions you can rely on for the long haul.

Automation, Controls and Instrumentation
Our experts are experienced with most forms of instrumentation to provide process measurement and control systems to monitor the instrumentation and respond as necessary to control the process. We can provide concept arrangements, control risers and narratives, detailed design, programming, commissioning and support on most platforms. We will work with you to get your systems functioning the way you want.
Types of Instrumentation
- process transmitters to monitor various process conditions such as pressure, level, temperature, flow, speed, position, etc.
- analyzers to monitor pH, free & residual chlorine, conductivity, turbidity, etc.
- commissioning of instruments,
- gas monitors for hydrogen, carbon-dioxide, carbon-monoxide, methane (or other combustible gasses), hydrogen-sulphide, etc.
- environmental monitors for humidity, temperature, etc.
Control Systems
We also have extensive experience with various forms of control systems such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), distributed control systems (DCS), human machine interface (HMI) systems, and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. A few of the control system platforms we’ve worked with in the past include:
- PLC platforms including Allen-Bradley (ControlLogix, CompactLogix, MicroLogix, SLC-5, SLC-500, etc.), Schneider Electric (Modicon Quantum, M340, Momentum, etc.), Siemens (Simatic S7), General Electric (RX3i, 90-30) and others
- DCS platforms including Emerson Delta-V, Emerson Ovation, ABB (Bailey) and Foxboro
- HMI/SCADA platforms including Rockwell FactoryTalk View SE/ME, GE iFIX, GE Cimplicity, Genesis32, Wonderware, etc.
