Underground Electrical

The distribution that runs below grade — duct banks, service runs and pad-mount transformers — carried by the same crew that wires the building.

Our scope

A building’s electrical system starts well before the building line.

The service run from the utility connection, the duct bank carrying primary and secondary distribution, the pad-mount transformer that steps it down — that infrastructure is electrical work, and LuMar Electric carries it as part of the same scope as the panels and the branch wiring inside.

For a general contractor or developer, that means the underground distribution and the building electrical answer to one contractor and one schedule, instead of being split across a handoff where the two have to be reconciled later.

From the utility connection to the panel

The below-grade electrical work we carry alongside the building scope, coordinated with the site schedule and with the utility.

Duct Banks

Duct bank installation for primary and secondary distribution on commercial and multi-unit sites, sized and routed with the building’s load in mind.

Underground Service Runs

Underground service installation from the utility connection through to the building, terminated and tested by the crew that carries it inside.

Pad-Mount Transformers

Supply, placement and termination of pad-mount transformers, coordinated directly with NB Power or Maritime Electric.

Site Lighting

Parking lots, walkways, yards and building exteriors — pole and wall-mounted site lighting, fed from the underground distribution.

Utility Coordination

Working the service application, the inspection sequence and the utility’s schedule so energization is not the thing holding up occupancy.

Multi-Unit Distribution

Underground servicing for housing communities and multi-building developments, from the site distribution through to each suite.

Bucket truck & overhead work

Our bucket truck covers the work that a ladder can’t reach — pole lighting, service masts, signage and exterior lighting on commercial buildings.

It is the same argument as the underground scope: overhead work that would otherwise mean bringing in a separate contractor stays with the crew already on your site.

Below grade, at grade and overhead, the electrical infrastructure of a site stays with one contractor.

Service & Maintenance
Why it matters

One contractor, one schedule, one point of accountability

The distribution is one scope

The duct bank, the conductors and the panels they land in are designed and installed as one system, under one foreman, rather than divided at the building line.

Sequencing that holds

The crew pulling the underground service is the crew terminating it inside, so the below-grade work is sequenced around the electrical schedule it feeds.

Accountability that doesn’t split

If something below grade needs to change, it is one contractor’s call to make and one contractor’s cost to carry.
