The Mining Industry

Extracting valuable resources from the earth requires electrical infrastructure that withstands extreme operating conditions. Heavy machinery, ventilation systems and processing equipment all depend on consistent electrical performance in environments with dust, vibrations and temperature fluctuations.

​

Power Solutions Group brings specialized electrical engineering and field service capabilities to mining operations throughout North America. Our professionals help facilities maintain production and safeguard their workforce.

Electrical Infrastructure Challenges in Mining

Keeping mines operational means addressing unique power system obstacles. Electrical equipment endures harsh conditions that accelerate component degradation. High-voltage distribution networks must supply power over vast distances underground and on the surface. Arc flash incidents in confined spaces present severe hazards, so mining operations must navigate MSHA oversight and demonstrate compliance with NFPA electrical standards through documentation and testing.

​

Partnering with qualified electrical specialists is critical to operational success and regulatory compliance. Power Solutions Group helps to reduce this burden by creating work environments with reliable electrical systems.

Consulting and Automation Capabilities

Power Solutions Group's engineering team designs electrical systems tailored to mining facilities and projects. Our professionals combine theoretical knowledge with hands-on installation experience, resulting in designs that work in real-world conditions. We engineer complete solutions from mine power distribution systems to control room installations while adhering to NEC, NEMA, IEEE and IEC requirements.

​

Our automation expertise encompasses traditional motor controls through sophisticated plant-wide systems integrating DCS, PLC and SCADA technologies.

NETA Field Testing and Maintenance for Mining

Being NETA-accredited specialists, our team provides technical field services essential to preventing failures and maintaining compliance. We deliver scheduled refinery power system maintenance, acceptance testing to NETA standards and 24-hour emergency support to mitigate unplanned downtime. Our capabilities encompass high, medium- and low-voltage installations.

​

From testing and commissioning to troubleshooting and root cause analysis, we maintain the full spectrum of your electrical assets. Our field technicians understand the climate surrounding hazardous electrical locations and execute all work with safety as the primary focus.

Restoring Electrical Equipment With Life Extension Services

Replacing major electrical components can be impractical due to equipment costs and prolonged procurement timelines.

​

Power Solutions Group extends the operational life of switchgear, breakers and related devices through expert reconditioning and remanufacturing. Our shop services restore components to a reliable operating condition. We also help mining teams manage capital budgets without compromising system integrity.

Safety Training Programs for Mining Electrical Personnel

Managing electrical hazards requires knowledge and preparation. Power Solutions Group offers training programs covering arc flash hazards, shock prevention and qualified electrical worker requirements.

​

Our instructors bring mining industry experience to training sessions, using relevant scenarios that reflect the conditions your maintenance teams encounter. We provide training opportunities at client sites and our facilities across North America.
