Commercial Electrical Optimization, Diagnostics & Integration

Reliable.
Responsive.
Ready to Serve.

We help commercial facilities stay safe, efficient, and code‑compliant through dependable electrical services, advanced diagnostics, and hands‑on implementation.

Commercial Electrical Expertise

Your commercial space should work as hard as your business does — and Bremer Electric & Automation delivers dependable electrical services for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, medical facilities, schools, and municipal buildings throughout Wisconsin.

Whether you’re planning a tenant buildout, upgrading to energy‑efficient lighting, or bringing an older building up to code, David Bremer brings a Master Electrician’s precision and a business owner’s understanding of timelines, budgets, and operational needs. We get the job done right — on schedule, on budget, and fully code‑compliant.

Our Commercial Services

Tenant Buildouts & Commercial Remodels

Moving into a new space or reconfiguring your current one? We manage the full electrical scope from start to finish — circuit layout, panel sizing, lighting design, data cabling rough‑in, and final device installation. Your buildout stays on schedule, passes inspection the first time, and is ready for occupancy without costly delays.

Dedicated Circuits & Subpanels

Commercial equipment requires stable, properly sized power. We install dedicated circuits and subpanels for kitchen equipment, server rooms, medical devices, HVAC systems, and specialty machinery. The result: clean, reliable power distribution without nuisance tripping, overheating, or voltage drop issues.

Lighting Retrofits & Energy‑Efficient Upgrades

Modern lighting improves visibility, reduces energy costs, and enhances the look and safety of your facility. We design and install LED conversions, occupancy sensors, daylight‑responsive controls, and architectural lighting upgrades that deliver consistent illumination and long‑term efficiency. Our retrofit approach ensures minimal disruption to your operations while bringing your building up to modern lighting standards.

Emergency Lighting & Exit Systems

Emergency and exit lighting must work when it matters most. We install, test, and maintain code‑required emergency lighting, battery backup units, and illuminated exit signage to keep your building compliant and your occupants safe during outages or evacuations.

Backup Power & Critical Load Protection

Power interruptions can shut down operations and create safety risks. We design and install standby generators, UPS systems, and automatic transfer switches sized to support your critical loads — ensuring your business stays operational through outages and grid instability.

Code Compliance & Electrical Upgrades

Older commercial buildings often need updates to meet current NEC requirements. We identify deficiencies, prioritize corrections, and bring your facility into compliance — whether you’re preparing for a sale, onboarding a new tenant, or responding to an inspection.

Smart Lighting & HVAC Controls

Intelligent building controls optimize comfort and energy use without adding complexity for your staff. We integrate programmable lighting systems, smart thermostats, occupancy‑based HVAC controls, and centralized automation platforms that adjust your building’s environment in real time. The result is a more efficient, responsive facility that reduces waste and supports a better occupant experience.

Troubleshooting & Electrical Diagnostics

Flickering lights, tripping breakers, and unexplained outages disrupt business and signal deeper electrical issues. We use systematic diagnostic methods and professional‑grade testing tools to identify root causes and implement permanent, code‑compliant solutions.

Insurance‑Recommended Electrical Corrections

Insurance carriers often flag electrical hazards that increase fire risk or liability exposure. We perform the required corrections — from panel deficiencies to grounding issues — and provide documentation your insurer can rely on. This helps reduce risk, avoid premium increases, and maintain compliance with underwriting requirements.

Thermography Follow-Up Repairs

Thermal imaging surveys reveal hotspots, loose terminations, overloaded circuits, and failing components. We complete the corrective repairs identified in your thermography report, preventing equipment failure and reducing the likelihood of unplanned downtime or electrical fires.

Commercial Electrical Reliability Services

Aging components, voltage fluctuations, harmonics, and unbalanced loads all reduce equipment life and increase downtime. We repair and replace failing components, rebalance loads, correct power quality issues, and perform targeted upgrades that improve long‑term reliability. Our power quality studies identify hidden electrical problems and recommend corrective actions — from panel reconfiguration to surge protection and harmonic mitigation.

Preventive Maintenance for Commercial Facilities

Routine electrical maintenance reduces downtime and extends equipment life. We offer scheduled inspections, torque checks, panel cleaning, breaker testing, and system audits tailored to your building’s usage and risk profile. This proactive approach keeps your facility running smoothly and reduces emergency repair costs.

"Call us before the guessing starts — we diagnose the fault, fast."

Diagnostic Services for Commercial Clients

Commercial electrical issues disrupt operations, frustrate staff, and cost money — especially when the symptoms are intermittent. We don’t just fix what’s in front of us. We take a whole‑facility diagnostic approach.

Your lighting, circuits, controls, equipment, and safety systems all work together — and we understand how they fail together. Because we look at the entire electrical system, we find the real fault quickly, preventing repeat issues and keeping your business running smoothly.

Common Commercial Issues We Solve

Flickering lights no one can trace
Intermittent power drops killing POS or HVAC
Circuits that overload even after “repairs”
Panels wired incorrectly by previous contractors
Equipment not responding to automation or control signals
Breakers that trip for “no reason”
Lighting failures after storms or brownouts
Hidden wiring faults from past renovations
Outlets that buzz, warm up, or intermittently die
Service mast or meter base issues affecting operations
Utility coordination for safe shutdowns during repairs
Automation equipment that “no one else can figure out”

Rapid Response Promise

We respond quickly to minimize disruption and keep your business running. Whether it’s a planned upgrade or an urgent repair, you’ll get clear communication, ethical pricing, and professional service.

Diagnostic Guarantee

At Bremer Electric & Automation, we stand behind our commitment to honest, effective service. That’s why we offer a No-Charge Diagnostic Guarantee for initial service calls—because you shouldn’t pay if we can’t pinpoint the problem.

What This Means for You

If we are unable to identify the root cause of your reported electrical issue during the scheduled diagnostic visit, you won’t be billed for that visit.

Limitations & Conditions

To ensure transparency and fairness, this guarantee applies under the following
conditions:

Valid only for first-time diagnostic visits related to a specific issue
Covers up to 60 minutes of onsite troubleshooting
The issue must be accessible and safe to inspect at the time of service

Does Not Apply To:

Intermittent faults
Failures caused by third-party systems
Equipment requiring manufacturer support

If a partial diagnosis is achieved (e.g., narrowed down to a faulty component or system), standard diagnostic fees may apply. Bremer Electric & Automation reserves the right to determine whether a reasonable diagnosis has been achieved.

Client Responsibilities

To help us serve you efficiently, we ask that clients:

Provide accurate information about the issue and grant full access to affected systems
Ensure the site is safe and compliant with local codes for inspection
