Key Benefits

  • Properly sized service and distribution systems
  • Reliable emergency and backup system designs
  • Provisions for future needs, power quality and safety

Capabilities

Ritter Engineering has extensive experience in designing, sizing and implementing various power distribution systems for many different types of facilities and many different clients.  From general commercial, to hospitals, to data centers and even trading floors, Ritter Engineering can meet your power design needs.

General or Normal Electrical Service
This includes service to the facility from the local utility company.  Care must be taken to insure that the service is properly sized and that the proper precautions have been taken to insure that the installed switchgear can interrupt the service in the presence of a fault condition.
Backup Generator Service
Some installations require a secondary or backup source of power which is generally supplied by a local generator.  Care must be taken to insure that the different emergency load types are properly separated and that adequate distribution and transfer capabilities are provided to cause a smooth transition to emergency power in the event of a loss of normal power.
Uninterruptible Power Supply and Transient Protection
For critical facilities or loads, such as data centers, there must be a "continuous" or uninterrupted supply of power.  Hi tech electronic loads, like computers, do not tolerate even a "glitch" in power (like that experienced when transferring from normal to generator) so they must be supply through a UPS.  Care must be taken in this situation to insure that the UPS is sized and installed correctly to allow for proper bypass conditions for maintenance.
