Power Systems Built for Growing Developments

SMB Electric LLC designs and installs electrical infrastructure for multi-unit commercial construction projects in Dandpoint.

When you plan a commercial complex or mixed-use property in Dandpoint, the electrical system determines how efficiently tenants can operate and how safely the building functions. You need power distribution that supports multiple users without overloading circuits, lighting that meets code for common areas and parking structures, and shared utility connections that allow each unit to be metered independently. SMB Electric LLC works with developers and general contractors to install electrical infrastructure that aligns with occupancy schedules and inspection timelines.

This service includes power planning for the entire property, installation of main service panels and subpanels for individual units, placement of lighting systems in hallways and exterior spaces, and coordination with utility providers to establish metering for shared and tenant-specific loads. You receive wiring designed to handle commercial appliances, HVAC systems, and tenant improvements without requiring major upgrades after construction. Work is scheduled in phases to match your construction timeline, allowing inspections and occupancy to proceed without delays.

If you are developing a commercial or mixed-use property in Dandpoint and need a team that understands phased builds and compliance requirements, contact SMB Electric LLC to discuss your project planning needs.

Coordination That Matches Your Build Timeline

SMB Electric LLC begins by reviewing your site plans and utility access to determine where main service equipment will be installed and how power will be routed to each unit. In Dandpoint, this often involves coordinating with inspectors early to confirm panel placement and emergency egress lighting before framing is closed. Conduit and wiring are installed in phases, allowing other trades to proceed without waiting for electrical rough-in to be completed across the entire building.

After installation, you will see labeled panels that clearly identify circuits for each tenant space, exterior lighting that activates on timers or photocells for security and visibility, and metering infrastructure that allows individual tenants to be billed for their own usage. Shared areas receive dedicated circuits that remain accessible for maintenance without interrupting tenant power.

The service includes testing and documentation to confirm that load balancing meets design specifications and that all connections are ready for final inspection. If your project expands or adds phases later, the panel layout is designed with spare capacity to support additional circuits without requiring replacement of main equipment. This approach reduces downtime and keeps costs predictable as your development grows.

Questions About Commercial Electrical Work Are Normal

Developers and property managers often ask how electrical systems are coordinated across multiple units and what happens when construction timelines shift. These questions help clarify what the work involves and how it fits into your overall project schedule.

What does power planning include for a multi-unit building?
Power planning includes calculating total load requirements, determining panel locations, routing main service lines, and designing circuits for tenant spaces and shared areas. You receive a layout that supports independent metering and future expansion.
How is electrical work phased during construction?
Electrical work is scheduled in stages that align with framing, drywall, and finishing timelines. Rough-in is completed before walls are closed, and final devices and fixtures are installed after painting and flooring are finished.
What type of lighting is used in common areas?
Common areas receive LED fixtures that are rated for continuous use and controlled by timers or photocells. You get consistent lighting in hallways, stairwells, and parking areas that meets code and reduces energy costs.
When can utility service be connected to the building?
Utility service is connected after main panels are installed and inspected, typically before tenant improvements begin. SMB Electric LLC coordinates with the utility provider to schedule connection and confirm metering is operational.
What happens if the project adds units or phases later?
The main panel is designed with spare breaker slots and conduit access points to support future circuits without replacing the service equipment. This allows you to add tenants or expand the building with minimal disruption.
