Benefits

Future-Proof Electrical Solutions

We don’t just correct violations—we future-proof your electrical. Our designs consider growth, adding spare capacity in panels, stubbing spare conduits, and deploying networked lighting controls ready for Title 24 updates. We implement submetering and power monitoring where useful, specify THHN/THWN-2 copper conductors for high-heat roof runs, and use scalable control backbones. The result is a compliant system that remains adaptable to new tenants, added equipment, or EV charger infrastructure.

Expert Code Compliance Guidance

Shaffer Construction manages permitting, plan review responses, and inspections with the City of Santa Clarita. We correct work to the 2022 California Electrical Code (based on NEC 2020), California Energy Code Title 24 Part 6, and CALGreen provisions affecting electrical scope. Our team prepares as-builts and panel schedules, coordinates SCE meter pulls/reconnects for service work, and aligns with Fire Department requirements where life-safety systems interface with power.

Trusted, Quality Workmanship

We use commercial-grade materials and documented methods: EMT with compression fittings, NEMA 3R/4X enclosures outdoors, copper THHN/THWN-2 conductors, bonding bushings and jumpers, in-use covers, and WR/GFCI devices where required. Terminations are torqued to manufacturer specs with calibrated tools, and we provide thermal imaging on critical gear to verify healthy connections. Expect neat conduit runs, clear labeling, updated directories, and a clean jobsite—ready for inspection.

Tailored Compliance Evaluations

Every project starts with a focused compliance audit. We review prior TI drawings, trace circuits, verify load calculations, and reconcile panel schedules to the field. If needed, we perform available fault current checks and SCCR labeling. You’ll receive a prioritized correction plan that groups tasks for minimal downtime and cost. We coordinate with property managers, tenants, and inspectors to sequence work for a smooth approval path.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which codes apply to commercial electrical work in Santa Clarita?+

Commercial projects are inspected to the 2022 California Electrical Code (Title 24, Part 3, based on NEC 2020) and the California Energy Code (Title 24, Part 6) for lighting controls and power density. CALGreen (Part 11) may apply to scope affecting sustainability features. Local amendments and Fire Department requirements are also considered when life-safety systems are involved.

Can you perform corrections after hours to avoid business downtime?+

Yes. We regularly schedule night and weekend work for office, retail, and restaurant spaces to keep operations running. We stage materials, pre-label circuits, and coordinate temporary power where needed. Most correction scopes can be completed in 1–5 days with limited or no disruption to customer-facing hours.

Do minor code corrections require a permit in Santa Clarita?+

Many corrections do, especially if they affect service equipment, new circuits, or Title 24 lighting controls. Some like device replacements may qualify for express permits. We’ll review your scope, advise on permit needs with the City of Santa Clarita Building and Safety Division, and handle submittals to streamline inspections.

How much do code corrections cost and how long will they take?+

Commercial corrections typically range from, depending on the number and severity of violations, panel condition, and any lighting control upgrades. Most projects finish in 1–5 days once materials and permits are ready. After a site audit, we’ll provide a prioritized, fixed-price proposal and schedule.
