Code-Compliant Power Solutions for Heavy Industry

Schaffhouser Electric is a UL-certified builder of industrial control panels — one of the most credible marks of quality in the industry. Whether you're installing new switchgear for a greenfield project or upgrading aging distribution equipment on an active plant floor, our panel specialists deliver code-compliant, reliable power solutions that keep your operations running.

Every panel we build and every switchgear installation we complete is executed to the letter of the National Electrical Code — with zero shortcuts and zero surprises. When uptime matters, you need a panel contractor you can trust.

Our Certification

UL-Certified Industrial Control Panel Builder

UL certification is among the most recognized and respected marks in the electrical industry. For our clients, it means peace of mind that every panel we build meets or exceeds the highest safety and performance standards.

When Schaffhouser builds your industrial control panel to UL standards, regulators, specifiers, and end-product certifiers can be fully confident the panel meets all applicable requirements. A UL-listed panel eliminates red tags at the job site, speeds up inspections, and removes liability from your organization.

Our competitive advantage is the ability to bid on — and win — jobs that specifically require UL-certified industrial control panels. Many industrial facilities, especially those in regulated industries, will not accept non-listed panels. We open doors that others cannot.

No Red-Tagged Panels

UL-certified panels pass inspection the first time — no costly rework, no project delays, no compliance headaches.
