“They found two loose lugs on a starter bucket during the thermal scan and fixed them in the same weekend window. The report had a photo of each.”

Preventive maintenance menu
Pick the checks your plant needs
Each visit is written up on one page: what we found, what we fixed, what to watch. Start with one line of the menu or take all of it.
- Usually yearly
Thermographic survey
Infrared scan of panels, starters and switchgear under load, with a photo log of every hot spot.
- Planned outage
Switchgear and breaker testing
Cleaning, torque checks and trip tests, done in a planned outage.
- Usually yearly
MCC and starter inspection
Buckets, contactors, overloads and terminations, checked and tightened, with spares noted.
- Usually twice a year
Drive and soft-starter service
Filters, fans, capacitors and parameter backups for drives that run the line.
- Usually twice a year
Panel cleaning and torque
Vacuum, wipe, re-torque and label check on control panels that run in dust and heat.
- Usually yearly
Grounding and emergency lighting
Ground continuity, bonding checks and a walk of exit and emergency fixtures.
Lockout first
Six steps before anyone touches a conductor
Every job, from a blown fuse to a new line hookup, starts the same way. The crew writes it on the job card and signs it.
- 01
Step 1: Walk the job
The lead and your maintenance supervisor walk it together and name every source of power and stored energy.
- 02
Step 2: Isolate and lock
Each person applies their own lock and tag. Nobody works under another person's lock.
- 03
Step 3: Verify zero
Test the tester, test the circuit, test the tester again. Then we say it out loud.
- 04
Step 4: Do the work
Work in the planned window, with the meter and the job card at hand.
- 05
Step 5: Test and document
Readings go on the job card and into your report before anything is restored.
- 06
Step 6: Remove locks, restore
Locks come off one at a time, and the operator is told before the line moves.
Shutdown windows
Short outages, planned like a job
Most plants give us a weekend, a holiday or a changeover. We write the sequence before the window opens: who is on site, what comes apart, which spares are staged and what happens if a part is not good.
The same crew that surveyed the panels does the outage, so nobody learns your building on your downtime.
Switching steps written and reviewed with your supervisor
Spares and test gear staged the day before
A test record for every breaker and relay we touch
Two ways to run a plant
Planned maintenance or a breakdown call
Both get the line moving again. Only one lets you choose the day.
| Run to failure | Planned maintenance | |
|---|---|---|
| When the work happens | Run to failureWhen the line stops | Planned maintenanceIn a window you picked with production |
| Who is on site | Run to failureWhoever can get there | Planned maintenanceThe crew that already knows your panels |
| Parts | Run to failureExpedited, from wherever they are | Planned maintenanceSpares noted on the last report and staged |
| Paperwork | Run to failureA service ticket | Planned maintenanceFindings, readings and photos on one page |

From the plant floor
What maintenance managers say
“Our controls tech had a backup of every drive parameter before he touched the first one. That saved us an afternoon when a drive failed in March.”
Neda R.Plant engineer, machining shop
“Their lockout card is better than the one our own contractors use. I asked if we could copy it, and they said yes.”
Hrag D.EHS coordinator, parts manufacturer

Plant walks
Walk the plant with us
Tell us what runs, how many shifts and when it can stop. A lead electrician or controls technician calls you to set a walk-through.
