ELECTRICAL PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE (EPM)

Electrical Preventive Maintenance (EPM) Agreements

At Champion Electric, we understand the critical importance of keeping your low-voltage electrical systems running safely and efficiently. Our Electrical Preventive Maintenance (EPM) single and multi-year agreements are tailored to ensure the reliability and safety of your systems under 1000 volts. With our comprehensive approach and expert team, we provide you with peace of mind and a proactive strategy to minimize downtime and costly repairs.

What's Included in Our EPM Agreement?

Infrared Thermography
Our infrared technicians identify potential issues like overheating connections and equipment anomalies before they lead to failures. Infrared inspections are a vital part of preventive maintenance to ensure your system operates without interruptions.

Power Quality Monitoring (PQM)
Monitoring your power quality helps prevent disruptions caused by harmonics, voltage sags, or transients. Our team analyzes your system’s performance to optimize reliability and efficiency.

Arc Flash and Short Circuit Studies
Compliance and safety are paramount. Our NFPA 70B-certified experts perform detailed arc flash and short circuit studies to identify hazards and recommend solutions that protect your personnel and equipment.

Cleaning and Torquing
Regular maintenance, including cleaning and torquing electrical connections, prevents loose connections and contaminants from compromising your system’s performance.

Breaker Testing
Periodic testing of circuit breakers ensures they are functioning correctly and will trip when required, safeguarding your operations from electrical faults.

What Does EPM Mean for Your Business?

With Champion Electric’s EPM agreements, you’re not just maintaining your electrical systems—you’re investing in the long-term success of your operations. From reducing downtime to improving safety and efficiency, EPM is a smart, proactive approach to managing one of your most critical assets.

The Key Benefits of EPM

1. Improved System Reliability

Regular maintenance identifies potential issues before they lead to unexpected downtime. By addressing problems proactively, you minimize disruptions and ensure your operations run smoothly, even during peak demand.

2. Enhanced Safety

Electrical failures can pose serious safety hazards, including fire risks, equipment damage, and personnel injury. Our comprehensive inspections and testing ensure compliance with safety standards like NFPA 70B, reducing the likelihood of accidents.

3. Cost Savings

Preventive maintenance is a cost-effective alternative to emergency repairs. By identifying and addressing small issues before they escalate, you avoid expensive repairs, replacement costs, and productivity losses caused by unplanned downtime.

4. Prolonged Equipment Lifespan

Electrical components, like breakers, transformers, and switchgear, degrade over time. Regular cleaning, torquing, and testing extend the lifespan of your equipment, maximizing the value of your investment.

5. Energy Efficiency

Well-maintained systems operate more efficiently, reducing energy consumption and associated costs. Power Quality Monitoring (PQM) can also help identify inefficiencies or power anomalies, enabling corrective actions to optimize performance.

6. Compliance with Industry Standards

Regulations like NFPA 70B and OSHA require businesses to maintain safe and compliant electrical systems. Our EPM programs ensure you meet these standards, avoiding potential fines or legal liabilities.

7. Tailored Solutions for Your Needs

At Champion Electric, we know that no two businesses are the same. Our EPM agreements are customized to fit your unique operational priorities and budget, ensuring you receive maximum value and impact.

8. Added Peace of Mind with Warranty Coverage

By enrolling in our EPM program and allowing our team to handle all recommended maintenance and testing, you gain access to an unmatched warranty that provides additional security for your systems.

Levels of Compliance in Electrical Preventive Maintenance (EPM)

At Champion Electric, we understand that compliance with electrical safety and reliability standards is not a one-size-fits-all process. Businesses often require a phased approach to meet their operational, regulatory, and budgetary goals. Our EPM program is designed to guide you through a structured progression of compliance levels, ensuring every step brings measurable value to your operations.

Level 1: Level 2:

Baseline Maintenance and Safety Assurance

The first step in compliance focuses on establishing a foundation for reliability and safety. Key activities include:

  • Conducting an initial assessment to identify potential hazards or deficiencies.
  • Performing basic maintenance tasks such as cleaning and torquing connections.
  • Testing critical components like circuit breakers to ensure functionality.

This level provides immediate improvements in system performance and addresses the most pressing safety concerns.

Preventive Diagnostics and Risk Mitigation

Building on the baseline, Level 2 introduces advanced diagnostics and testing to identify emerging risks. Activities include:

  • Infrared thermography to detect overheating or anomalies in electrical systems.
  • Power Quality Monitoring (PQM) to analyze and correct power anomalies.
  • Detailed reporting and recommendations for necessary repairs or replacements.

At this stage, you begin to proactively address issues before they impact operations.

Level 3: Level 4:

Advanced Compliance and System Optimization

Level 3 is focused on achieving full compliance with industry standards, such as NFPA 70B, and optimizing system performance. Activities include:

  • Comprehensive arc flash and short circuit studies to ensure personnel safety and regulatory compliance.
  • Implementation of long-term maintenance schedules tailored to your equipment and operations.
  • Ensuring documentation and records are up to date for regulatory audits and inspections.

This level maximizes operational safety, minimizes risks, and ensures your systems meet or exceed regulatory requirements.

Ongoing Reliability and Warranty Protection

At the highest level, your system is maintained at peak performance with ongoing monitoring and support. This includes:

  • Proactive replacement of aging or suspect components to reduce downtime risks.
  • Warranty protection for qualifying equipment, covering labor for replacements.
  • Regular reviews to adjust and improve the maintenance program based on evolving needs.

This level ensures your systems are always compliant, efficient, and protected, providing the ultimate peace of mind.

A Path to Long-Term Success

No matter where your business is starting, Champion Electric’s EPM program meets you where you are and helps you progress toward full compliance and system optimization.
