Industrial Backup Generators & UPS Systems GTA | Ramboll Electrical & Contracting Solutions

Uninterruptible Power for Critical Industrial Operations

The Greater Toronto Area’s electrical grid is generally reliable, but severe weather and grid overloads can cause unexpected blackouts. For an industrial facility, even a 10-minute power loss can result in ruined manufacturing batches, corrupted PLC data, and hours of machine resetting.

Ramboll Electrical & Contracting Solutions protects your bottom line by installing robust, industrial-grade backup generators and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems. We ensure that when the provincial grid fails, your critical operations do not.

Complete Emergency Power Solutions

Industrial Standby Generators: Installation of high-capacity diesel or natural gas generators capable of backing up your entire manufacturing floor for days.
Automatic Transfer Switches (ATS): Systems that seamlessly and automatically switch your facility to generator power the moment a grid failure is detected.
UPS Systems: High-capacity battery backup systems that provide instantaneous power to sensitive servers, PLCs, and emergency lighting so they never drop offline while the generator spins up.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between a UPS and a backup generator?

A UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) uses batteries to provide instantaneous power the exact millisecond the grid fails, preventing computers and PLCs from crashing. However, batteries only last a short time. A backup generator runs on fuel and can power your entire heavy-machinery operation for days, but it takes about 10 to 30 seconds to turn on. The two systems work perfectly together for total power protection.

How do I know what size generator my facility needs?

Sizing an industrial generator requires precise engineering calculations. Ramboll Electrical & Contracting Solutions will assess your facility's peak kW demand, evaluate the starting loads of your heaviest motors (which draw massive power when turning on), and design a generator system perfectly sized to carry your critical operations.

Do industrial generators turn on automatically during a power outage?

Yes. We install an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) alongside your generator. The ATS constantly monitors the local power grid. The moment it detects a blackout, it automatically starts the generator and transfers your facility's power load within seconds, requiring no human intervention.

Where can a heavy-duty industrial generator be installed?

Industrial generators are large and require proper ventilation and noise management. We typically install them on reinforced exterior concrete pads or, if ground space is limited, on reinforced structural rooftops. We handle the complete installation, including fuel line routing and structural coordination.

Do you provide ongoing maintenance services for the generators you install?

Yes. A backup generator is only useful if it actually starts when you need it. We offer scheduled maintenance programs that include running test cycles, load bank testing, battery checks, and fluid replacements to ensure your emergency power system is always on standby and ready for the next storm.
