Services
We appreciate this opportunity to acquaint you with the various services and products that the repair department at Sandusky Electric can offer. Our goal is to provide our customers the best possible service in helping them to maintain the reliability of the electrical equipment they depend on.
Our electrical apparatus repair shop provides a complete service, from inspection and diagnosis, to rebuilding, rewinding, and final testing. The procedures we follow are designed to ensure that all equipment brought to us for repair will be thoroughly inspected for all obvious electrical and mechanical defects, and that, once repaired and rebuilt, the apparatus is put back in service in the best condition possible. Our repair services are by no means limited to motors; we can also handle repairs on pumps, gearboxes, and mechanical brakes, to name a few.
In addition to our apparatus rebuild service, we also maintain an extensive inventory of new motors and motor parts, as well as belts, pulleys and sheaves, and other products essential to keeping your industrial and commercial processes running smoothly.
We also provide a complete control panel fabricating service. We would welcome the opportunity to take your design or concept and build a quality control system that meets your specifications and requirements. Once built, our AutoCAD services can provide the essential documentation needed to assist in the maintenance and operation of the control process.
These are just a few examples of what Sandusky Electric can offer; enclosed for your convenience is documentation of the scope of services we can provide. Please take the time to review this information and feel free to contact us with any questions or inquiries you may still have about our services. We appreciate the opportunity to acquaint you with our capabilities, and we look forward to any opportunities for future business that can be developed.
