Fraser Regional Correctional Centre Electric Vehicle Charging Stations.

Fraser Regional Correctional Centre – EV Charging Stations

  • 6 Charging Heads
  • 3 2P40A Circuits
  • 2 Underground Concrete Vaults

Projects / Institutional

Project info

Looking to modernize, Fraser Regional Correctional Centre (FRCC) in Maple Ridge commissioned our team to install EV charging stations at their facility–which was built in 1990.

As the general contractor, we collaborated with several sub-trades (civil, coring, etc.) and coordinated the required permits and security clearances to break ground at the facility. We also assisted in the electric vehicle (EV) charging station design alterations based on usage site condition requirements before the project began.

To complete the installation, our team: verified capacity in distribution (using existing metering) for three new load-sharing FLO Core+ EV charging units; routed three new 2P40A circuits via new underground conduit; installed two underground concrete vaults; routed and installed a lighting circuit to new lighting bollards; routed conduit and installed FLO network gateway; and verified the lighting control integration (with existing controls) and commissioned six charging heads with FRCC and FLO.

Joseph & Rosalie Segal Family Health Centre Building Exterior

Joseph & Rosalie Segal Family Health Centre

  • 8 Storey Building
  • 100 Private Patient Rooms

Projects / Institutional

Project info

The Joseph & Rosalie Segal Family Health Centre (JRSFHC) is a new, eight-storey mental health and addictions facility on the Vancouver General Hospital site. Bringing various services under one roof, including inpatient and outpatient care, outreach programs, and addiction services, the facility provides a safer, healthier environment for patients and healthcare professionals. Key features of the hospital include 100 private patient rooms, each with its own ensuite washroom; dedicated family and visitor space; access to outdoor space with secure rooftop gardens for patient gardening; a new public park; exercise facilities; and quiet places on each floor for reading and meditating.


We worked directly with the general contractor on this project to assist with the electrical design and solve multiple challenges which included: working through scope and design changes within the original schedule, logistical difficulties when making deliveries, reduced ceiling space for services, and creating acoustical separation between rooms.


Our team also provided electrical and technology solutions, including electrical distribution, emergency power systems, lighting and lighting control, fire alarm, clock system, structured cabling and communications, distributed antenna system, audiovisual, and security solutions like access control, video surveillance, and real-time locating systems.

Squamish Fire Hall Drawing

Squamish Fire Hall

  • $16.7M Budget
  • 3 Storeys
  • 4 Bays

Projects / Institutional

Project info

The District of Squamish required the development of a new post-disaster Firehall and Emergency Operations Centre. Moving the Fire Rescue headquarters, Emergency Operations Centre, and IT Server Room out of the floodplain and into a post-disaster building was critical for effective emergency response. Now completed, first responders work in a building that meets all seismic and occupational health and safety standards.

We provided design-assist services to the construction team. Our scope included all electrical work, exterior and interior lighting, a digital sub-metering system, emergency power, network systems, a fire alarm system, a public address system, and security access control and intrusion alarms.
