Built around your production schedule.
Spark’s plant power system design covers substation EPC through MCCs, switchgear, arc flash, and the protection coordination that ties them together.
Plant electrical design, equipment layouts, and interconnections engineered for food-safe production environments.
Substation EPC engineering for plant interconnections to IEEE C37 and IEC 62271 standards.
LV/MV MCCs, switchgear, and transformers delivered as integrated design-and-install work packages.
Production system maintenance, commissioning, and testing alignment engineered into the original electrical design.
Arc flash hazard analysis to CSA Z462 and IEEE 1584 plus protective device coordination across plant systems.
Ground grid analysis and site safety integration sized for plant shutdowns and turnaround windows.
HACCP, GFSI, and BRC food-industry electrical standards, ESA approvals, and CSA compliance built into every scope.
Industrial scopes get built by Spark crews directly, not by subcontractors with their own schedules.
Low-, medium-, and high-voltage installation and field support inside operating food and beverage plants.
Switchgear, MCCs, transformer installations, lighting, and grounding engineered for food-safe environments.
Process equipment power and instrumentation install — mixers, mills, fillers, packagers, ovens, and refrigeration.
Sanitary-zone wiring, washdown-resistant terminations, and stainless conduit to food-safe construction standards.
Utility interconnection and upgrades for food and beverage plant substations engineered and built end-to-end.
600+ tradespersons and 700+ fleet vehicles across Canada and the U.S., supported by Prime Contractor accountability.
COR-certified Canadian operations and stop-work authority for every employee on every job site.
Our teams understand Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and the sanitation, food safety, and operational requirements that guide electrical work in your facility.
Custom panels for VFD, PLC, RTU, SCADA, MCC, and skid applications get designed, programmed, built, and tested inside Spark’s three CSA/UL-certified panel shops.
Calgary AB, Hamilton ON, and Fresno CA — regional panel shop coverage for North American food and beverage processors.
Design, program, build, and install custom control panels for VFD, PLC, RTU, SCADA, motor control panels, and skid applications.
Pre- and post-build acceptance testing, operator training, and ongoing maintenance from the panel shop team.
CSA and UL pre-approved panel shops, with ESA approval coordination for installed systems.
Rockwell-based controls integration — including the Conestoga Meats automated abattoir reference scope.
Marel automation integration for abattoir and processing automation across food-industry production lines.
Engineered-to-order control buildings, modular E-houses, and auxiliary enclosures for plant deployments.
F&B expansions land in three constraint envelopes at once: production schedule, sanitation cycles, and changeover windows. Spark sequences the work to fit all three, integrating new equipment with live systems.
Greenfield electrical install and commissioning — Ontario’s first greenfield flour mill in 75+ years (P&H Milling Group, $45M, 480-tonne/hour).
Brownfield expansions and capacity increases — Conestoga Meats’ 100,000 sq ft automated abattoir delivering +58% production capacity.
PLC programming, SCADA integration, Marel automation, and Rockwell-based controls integrated with the electrical scope.
Construction equipment install and integration with existing plant power systems and process automation.
Substation builds, MCC additions, and transformer installations integrated into the expansion’s power scope.
Disciplined outage and shutdown coordination tied to plant production, sanitation, and changeover schedules.
Execution coordinated with food-safe construction standards and GMP’s — sanitary zones, segregation, and material handling.
Uptime is non-negotiable, so Spark embeds local technicians on shift contracts in the communities where customers operate.
Disciplined outage coordination, switching plans, and commissioning sequencing engineered for production windows.
24/7 shift coverage from local technicians in the communities where customers operate.
24 to 72 hour mobilization from 16+ regional offices across Canada and the U.S. for emergency dispatch.
Energized fault response, transformer replacements, breaker swaps, and process equipment electrical repairs.
Coordination with food safety, sanitation, and changeover schedules so electrical work fits production reality.
Engineering, parts, and field crews from one accountable team. No handoff between diagnosis and execution.
Spark Power covers all 50 U.S. states and Canada.
Acceptance testing to NETA ATS standards for new and refurbished industrial electrical equipment.
Predictive and preventive maintenance to NETA MTS standards across plant power systems.
Low-, medium-, and high-voltage breaker testing with primary and secondary injection.
Oil analysis, DGA, insulation resistance, power factor, and sweep frequency response on critical plant transformers.
Thermography surveys, power quality monitoring, and partial discharge analysis for industrial systems.
Fieldbus network analysis, troubleshooting, and SCADA verification for plant controls and automation.
24 to 72-hour mobilization and audit-ready documentation delivered inside compressed outage windows.
