Commercial & Industrial Electrical Solutions
When a breaker trips in a home, the lights flicker; when a breaker trips in a factory, production stops and revenue bleeds. Goodkin Electric understands that downtime isn’t just inconvenient—it’s expensive. For more than two decades, our licensed, bonded, and insured Arizona electricians (ROC #331444 – CR-11) have kept Northern Arizona’s businesses, warehouses, and metal-building projects running safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with NEC, OSHA, and local AHJ requirements. From precision motor controls to rugged conduit runs in a steel hangar, we combine big-picture engineering with neighbor-level customer care.
Motor Controls & VFDs
Modern machinery demands precise control over torque, speed, and energy draw. A properly engineered motor‑control center (MCC) coupled with variable‑frequency drives (VFDs) accomplishes exactly that:
| Benefit | What It Means for Your Facility |
|---|---|
| Energy Efficiency | VFDs match motor speed to load, cutting kWh consumption by up to 50 %. |
| Process Accuracy | Programmable acceleration ramps prevent sudden pressure spikes in pumps and conveyors. |
| Reduced Maintenance | Soft‑starting lowers inrush current, extending motor bearing and belt life. |
| Data Visibility | Networkable drives integrate with SCADA or BAS for real‑time diagnostics. |
Our commercial crew designs and installs turnkey MCC line‑ups, individual VFD retrofits, and PLC I/O expansions. We handle:
- Three‑phase service sizing and transformer calculations
- NEMA / IEC enclosure selection for desert dust and wash‑down zones
- Harmonic‑mitigation filters and line reactors for long‑lead applications
- UL‑508A panel builds, FAT testing, and lock‑out/tag‑out commissioning

Steel Buildings & Barndominiums
Agricultural shops, aircraft hangars, and trendy barndominiums share one trait: acres of steel that reflect heat and require specialized wiring methods. Conduit must be routed before wall insulation; panelboards need surge protection against lightning strikes; and bonding jumpers must span every structural member to satisfy Article 250.
Goodkin Electric’s design-build team has wired:
- 25,000 sq ft distribution centers with 480 V three-phase service
- Climate-controlled cannabis grows with redundant generator taps
- Live-work barndominiums featuring 200 A residential panels plus 600 A shop sub-feeders
Our metal-building package includes:
- Electrical Load & Layout – Service calculations, CAD conduit runs, high-bay lighting photometrics.
- Utility & Permit Coordination – Single-line diagrams and fault-current studies for UniSource, APS, or EPCOR.
- Rough-In & Inspection – EMT/IMC runs before sheathing, GFCI shop receptacles, EV-ready circuits.
- Finish & Future-Proofing – LED high-bays, CAT-6 pulls, transfer-switch stubs for future generators.

Low-Voltage & Networking
“Cut once, pull twice” is every IT manager’s nightmare. By letting a single licensed contractor handle power and data, you eliminate finger-pointing and change-order chaos. Goodkin Electric’s BICSI-trained techs install:
- Structured Cabling – CAT-6, CAT-6A, OM3 fiber backbones, color-coded patch panels
- PoE & VoIP Switching – 10-Gig PoE++ injectors for Wi-Fi-6 access points and cameras
- Intercom & Paging – SIP-enabled horn speakers, desk handsets, ADA call stations
- Racks & Cable Management – Vertical managers, ladder-rack trays, label-verified terminations
We certify each drop to ANSI/TIA standards and deliver Fluke test reports with your close-out package. Dive deeper into low-voltage networking to see sample server-room builds.
Surveillance & Alarm Systems
Security isn’t a luxury; it’s an insurance mandate for many industries. Our NICET-certified installers deploy:
- 4K IP Cameras – Weather-sealed domes, bullet cams, PTZ units with optical zoom
- NVR & Cloud Storage – Local RAID plus off-site redundancy for chain-of-custody footage
- Access Control – Card/fob readers, mag-locks, ADA lever sets with fire-alarm integration
- Intrusion & Panic Systems – Glass-break sensors, motion detectors, dual-path communicators
All devices tie back to a single PoE switch, simplifying network management and giving business owners mobile access. Learn more on our surveillance & alarm page.
Our Four-Stage Commercial Project Protocol
-
- Discovery & Design – We meet with stakeholders, engineers, and AHJs to define scope, timelines, and critical loads.
- Detailed Proposal – Itemized BOM, Gantt chart, and fixed pricing—no guesswork.
- Execution & QA – OSHA-trained crew, daily progress reports, change-order controls, and third-party insulation resistance testing.
- Close-Out & Support – As-built drawings, torque logs, warranty certificates, and optional preventive-maintenance contracts.
This structure delivers projects on-time, on-budget, and punch-list-free, giving you a single throat to choke—and a team you’ll call back for the next expansion.
