TEGG — An ABM Company

The TEGG Electrical Preventive Maintenance Program

A scheduled, documented program that finds electrical failures while they're still small, cheap, and safe to fix — delivered by the only TEGG certified company in the state of Idaho.

The Program

Most electrical failures are predictable — if you're looking

Roughly speaking, electrical distribution equipment doesn't fail out of nowhere. Connections loosen and run hot. Insulation ages and starts to track. Breakers sit untouched for a decade and seize. Each of those problems announces itself — as heat, as sound, as a change in electrical signature — long before it becomes an outage or a fire.

The TEGG program is built around catching those announcements. On a scheduled cycle, our certified technicians inspect and test your energized electrical system, compare results against your equipment's history, and fix what's trending toward failure. You get fewer surprises, a safer facility, and a documented maintenance record that satisfies insurers, auditors, and NFPA 70B.

  • Proactive — problems found on our schedule, not at 2 AM on yours
  • Non-disruptive — energized inspections while you keep operating
  • Documented — every asset photographed, rated, and reported
  • Standardized — TEGG-certified process used worldwide

How the program works

1. Survey & asset inventory

It starts with a no-cost, no-obligation survey: we walk your facility, build a complete inventory of your electrical distribution equipment — panels, switchgear, transformers, disconnects, and motor controls — and deliver a written proposal for your testing program, including the replacement cost of your electrical distribution system so you know what a failure would cost to rebuild.

2. Energized inspection & testing

With your facility running normally, we perform infrared thermography, ultrasound inspection, visual inspection, and electrical measurements to find heat, arcing, corona, and loading problems invisible from the outside.

3. De-energized testing & maintenance

During planned windows, we clean, torque, exercise, and test equipment — insulation resistance, contact resistance, and breaker operation — the deeper work that energized inspection can't reach.

4. Report, repair & repeat

Findings are prioritized in plain language: fix now, plan for, monitor. Repairs are quoted upfront and re-tested after completion. Then the cycle repeats on a schedule matched to each asset's condition and criticality.

Why It Pays

Planned maintenance is the cheapest electricity you'll buy

An unplanned outage isn't just an electrician's invoice. It's idle crews, spoiled product, missed orders, data loss, and overtime — plus the emergency-rate repair itself. Industry research puts the average cost of unplanned downtime at $260,000 per hour (Aberdeen), with typical manufacturers losing roughly 800 hours a year to it (Siemens) — a single lost production day can run past $2 million at industry-average rates, and tens of thousands even for smaller facilities.

There's also the risk you can't invoice: electrical failures are a leading cause of commercial structure fires, and a poorly maintained protective device is exactly the one that fails to clear a fault when a worker is standing in front of it. Maintenance is as much a safety program as a reliability program — which is why NFPA 70B now requires it and NFPA 70E assumes it.

  • Fewer unplanned outages and after-hours emergencies
  • Longer equipment life and better capital planning
  • Lower fire and arc flash risk
  • Documentation for insurance carriers and NFPA 70B

The Keely Power Systems Guarantee

If It Fails Anyway, It's On Us

Here's how much we trust the TEGG process: if equipment we've inspected and repaired under your program fails in service, we repair or replace it at no cost to your facility. Your maintenance program comes with skin in the game — ours.

Start With Zero Risk

The survey that scopes your program is no cost and no obligation. You get a written proposal for your electrical testing program and the replacement cost of your electrical distribution system — useful numbers to have even if you never hire us.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is TEGG?

TEGG Service is a worldwide network of franchised electrical contractors who deliver a standardized electrical preventive maintenance program — the same proven process, technology, and reporting used at facilities across the U.S. and internationally. Keely Power Systems is the only TEGG certified company in the state of Idaho.

Do you have to shut my facility down to do this?

For most of the program, no. Energized inspections — infrared thermography, ultrasound, visual inspection, and power monitoring — are performed while your facility operates normally. De-energized testing and corrective repairs are scheduled around your hours, often during planned shutdowns.

How often is TEGG maintenance performed?

It depends on the condition and criticality of your equipment — that's the point. After the initial survey, each piece of equipment gets a maintenance interval based on its condition, age, environment, and how critical it is to your operation, consistent with the condition-based approach in NFPA 70B.

Does a TEGG program satisfy NFPA 70B?

The TEGG program lines up naturally with what NFPA 70B requires: a documented electrical maintenance program, an equipment inventory with condition assessments, condition-based intervals, qualified personnel, and retained records. We build and maintain that documentation for you as part of the program.

What is the Keely Power Systems guarantee?

If equipment we've inspected and repaired under your TEGG program fails in service anyway, we repair or replace it at no cost to your facility. The program is built to prevent failures — and if one gets past us on covered equipment, the cost of making it right is ours, not yours.

What does it cost?

It scales with the size and complexity of your electrical system, which is why the first step is a no-cost, no-obligation survey. Most facilities find the program costs a fraction of a single unplanned outage.
