ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION SERVICES

Utilities across the country are leaning on UPA and its electric distribution team of qualified Line Crews to construct, inspect and maintain their overhead and underground infrastructure and provide emergency restoration services.

As customer expectations, local codes, and industry demands evolve, many utilities are facing pressure to move overhead power lines underground. UPA executes these conversions with professionals who specialize in the directional boring and trenching required to safely bury electrical wires. UPA handles every facet of the underground conversion process—including full landscape restoration and overhead wire removal. This helps their clients focus on their core business of providing safe, reliable low-cost energy.

Utilities nationwide rely on UPA to help them reestablish service after hurricanes, floods, and other major weather events that cause system-wide outages. UPA’s fleet of line crews and other emergency technicians can assist with a variety of issues. These include downed power lines, transformer repair, and damage assessment of utility infrastructure. Restoration crews are dispatched as soon as UPA receives client approval, and they continue to aid and assist the utility until service is fully recovered.
