Power Distribution for Critical Operations

Switchgear, transformer, and UPS installation and maintenance serving commercial and industrial facilities in Butte, Montana.

Your facility in Butte depends on electrical infrastructure that does more than deliver power—it distributes it safely, protects equipment from faults, and ensures continuity when the grid goes down. Switchgear controls the flow of electricity between your service entrance and downstream panels. Transformers step voltage up or down to match the needs of specific equipment. UPS systems keep critical operations running during outages or voltage events that would otherwise shut down servers, medical equipment, or production lines.

Arc Electric Inc installs and maintains switchgear, large transformers, and UPS systems throughout Butte, supporting commercial and industrial environments where power reliability and capacity matter. Work includes installation, replacement, system integration, and routine maintenance for high-voltage and high-capacity electrical distribution equipment that handles the demands of data centers, healthcare facilities, manufacturing operations, and other critical environments.

If your facility in Butte requires switchgear upgrades, transformer replacement, or UPS system installation, contact Arc Electric Inc to discuss your electrical distribution needs and project requirements.

What Your Facility Gains After Installation

Your facility will have electrical distribution equipment sized and configured to handle current loads and future expansion. Arc Electric Inc installs switchgear that protects circuits from overloads and faults, transformers that deliver the correct voltage to equipment, and UPS systems that provide seamless backup power when utility service is interrupted or unstable in Butte.

Once the system is in place, your operations continue without interruption during power events, equipment is protected from voltage fluctuations, and electrical distribution is handled through code-compliant infrastructure designed for long-term performance. Maintenance schedules can be planned around your operational needs, reducing the risk of unplanned downtime caused by failed or outdated equipment.

Arc Electric Inc works with both new installations and upgrades to existing systems, including replacing aging transformers, retrofitting switchgear for modern safety standards, and integrating UPS systems with existing power distribution infrastructure. Work is coordinated to minimize disruption to ongoing operations and completed to meet manufacturer specifications and local code requirements.

The Questions Usually Focus on Capacity and Reliability

Facility managers and business owners in Butte typically want to know how the equipment fits their current and future loads, what the installation process involves, and how maintenance requirements affect long-term operating costs.

What types of facilities require switchgear and transformer installations?
Data centers, hospitals, manufacturing plants, large commercial buildings, and any facility with high-voltage or high-capacity electrical needs use switchgear and transformers to distribute power safely. Arc Electric Inc installs and maintains this equipment for commercial and industrial clients in Butte.
How does a UPS system protect critical operations?
A UPS system provides immediate backup power when utility service is interrupted, giving you time to shut down equipment safely or continue operating until a generator takes over. Arc Electric Inc installs UPS systems sized to match your load and runtime requirements.
What maintenance do transformers and switchgear require?
Routine maintenance includes visual inspections, thermal imaging, connection tightening, and testing for faults or degradation. Arc Electric Inc schedules maintenance to catch issues before they cause equipment failure or unplanned outages.
What happens if the existing transformer cannot handle increased load?
Arc Electric Inc evaluates your current transformer capacity and recommends replacement or additional units if your facility has outgrown the existing equipment. Installation includes disconnecting the old unit, setting the new transformer, and integrating it with your electrical distribution system.
How long does switchgear or transformer installation take?
Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the equipment, the electrical infrastructure it connects to, and coordination with utility providers or other contractors. Most installations in Butte are completed within a few days to a week, with work scheduled to minimize downtime.
