Our Services
Electrical Site Assessments
Our Electrical Site Assessments provide a thorough on-site evaluation of your existing electrical infrastructure. We identify capacity limitations, code compliance issues, upgrade opportunities, and potential safety risks. Ideal for service upgrades, EV charging installations, and renovations, our assessments are backed by licensed professionals and include a detailed summary report to support design and planning decisions. Free initial consultations available for eligible projects.
Electrical Design & Planning Reports (EPR)
As required by BC provincial regulations, most new residential, commercial, and industrial developments must include a stamped Electrical Design & Planning Report (EPR) for permit approval. TrustLine Engineering provides professionally engineered EPRs that include load calculations, service sizing, single-line diagrams, panel schedules, and breaker coordination. Our reports are tailored to meet BC Hydro standards, municipal permitting guidelines, and client-specific needs—ensuring your project moves forward without delays.

FAQ
For most standard projects, we deliver permit-ready packages within 2-4 weeks by combining pre-validated design templates with direct utility coordination through our ex-BC Hydro team members. Our AI-assisted error checking system further accelerates the process by eliminating common review cycle delays before submission.
Every submission comes complete with BCSA-compliant stamped engineering drawings, detailed load calculations, voltage drop analysis, and when required for industrial sites, arc-flash study summaries. We stand behind our work with a revision credit guarantee - if municipalities request changes, we'll address them at no additional cost.
Absolutely. We specialize in non-disruptive upgrades through carefully planned live-work coordination with utilities, temporary power solutions tailored to your operational needs, and phased implementation strategies. For example, we recently completed an 800A service upgrade for a Surrey manufacturing plant without requiring a single minute of production downtime.
Our Smart-Ready EV approach builds in 200% spare panel capacity from the outset, pre-wires for load-sharing controllers, and includes a comprehensive utility rate analysis to optimize your demand charges - future-proofing your investment against both technological advances and changing usage patterns.
We go beyond basic compliance to deliver industrial systems engineered for maximum safety through hazardous-area certified layouts, exceptional uptime via predictive fault modeling, and measurable cost control with energy recovery systems that typically pay for themselves in under three years of operation.
Unlike larger firms that delegate work to junior drafters, we guarantee your project stays with senior P.Engs from start to finish. Our fixed-fee pricing model eliminates surprise hourly charges, and we commit to 24-hour turnaround times on all contractor RFIs - advantages that have helped us become the preferred partner for time-sensitive developments across the Lower Mainland.
Priority clients benefit from same-day site assessments, stamped diagnostic reports delivered within 48 hours, and direct coordination with electrical inspectors to expedite solutions. This rapid response capability has helped numerous facilities minimize costly downtime during critical situations.
We maintain a 100% approval record for service upgrades up to 1200A, renewable energy interconnections, and demand-side management programs, thanks to our team's deep understanding of utility requirements and pre-submission validation process that catches potential issues before they delay your project.
