As your partner, Signature Electric manages the entire installation process from beginning to end, including post-installation servicing and individual resident needs.

First, we start with a consultation to assess the corporation’s needs and current capacity for EV charging infrastructure.

Then, we’ll conduct an engineered load evaluation that will specify the condo’s electrical capacity and determine how many EV chargers the building is able to support. From there, we’ll consult with the property management and condo board so they can make an informed decision.

Finally, we’ll work together to deliver a tailored solution for the condo’s specific needs.

This may work for smaller condo corporations; however, most condos recognize the benefit of investing in a more holistic, future-focused solution.
Often, after the first charger goes into a building, the second is not far off. The responsibility of the property management team to ensure billing is managed, power needs are met, etc., increases. This is why we recommend investing in infrastructure that will automate billing and power management to reduce the strain on the corporation’s professionals and ensure ease of use for all involved.

It is recommended that a building’s electrical infrastructure undergoes predictive maintenance, like a thermographic inspection, every 18 months to ensure everything is in good working order. This schedule will help you catch both the heating and cooling cycles.

This depends on the electrical capacity of your building and whether or not your building is using a power management system with their EV chargers. Signature Electric recommends performing an engineered load evaluation to determine the power capacity of the building.

Signature Electric can absolutely assist with any repairs to your hydro vault, whether they are mandated by your utility or just part of regular maintenance. Please contact the office to discuss your building’s specific needs.

It may be okay for a non-electrician to change a screw-in fuse in a resident panel. However, any fuse that requires you to open the door of a switch requires a professional. The voltage can be very volatile and there is a certain testing method that must be followed. In addition, it is important to understand what caused the fuse to blow so that any possible faults can be cleared before the fuse is changed. There is a similar concern with ballasts. While it seems like a very simple job, the voltage here can be very dangerous and should not be handled by an untrained individual.
