Back to What We Do

Generators & Switchgear

Standby generators, ATS, and switchgear for resilient power.

From standby generators to automatic transfer switches and paralleling switchgear, Comp-Utility delivers the backbone of your facility's resilient power chain, engineered, installed, and maintained to carry the load when utility power fails.

When the grid goes down, your generator and transfer equipment decide whether operations continue or stop. We engineer that chain end to end, sizing standby generation to your load, specifying the transfer scheme, and integrating controls so the handoff is seamless and automatic.

Our team handles load bank testing, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance, so the system you depend on is proven before you need it and stays ready over its service life.
