Why is electrical maintenance important?
Routine maintenance ensures that your electrical equipment is safe, reliable, and fit for continued service.
As stated in the Canadian Electrical Code (2024), Section 2-300:
(1) All operating electrical equipment shall be kept in safe and proper working condition.
(2) Electrical equipment maintained for emergency service shall be periodically inspected and tested…
(3) Infrequently used equipment… shall be thoroughly inspected before use…
(4) Defective equipment shall either be put in good order or permanently disconnected.
Additional standards from ANSI/NETA and WorkSafe BC reinforce the importance of periodic inspections and preventative testing – especially when dealing with aging equipment or critical infrastructure.
A preventative maintenance program is not just best practice, it’s a smart investment in operational continuity and safety.
