Follow the power through a building

Every commercial system starts at the same place: the utility transformer and your main switchboard. Pick a system to see its path, and what we do for it.

How power moves through a commercial building A two-story commercial building in cross-section. Power comes from the utility transformer outside to the main switchboard in the electrical room, then to a panel on each floor, and from the panels to the lighting, outlets and equipment, the storefront sign and an EV charger outside.

    2. A circuit tripped furing the extreme hear so I called Volta at 6pm and they were able to schedule service for the next day. On arrival, Eric and his associate were so polite and ready & willing to help. Luckily my problem was just a tripped circuit I didn't know about but they checked all the breakers and made sure everything worked before they left. I'd highly recommend Volta.
