Industrial Electrical Services in Gateshead: Supporting Team Valley & Beyond

Gateshead is home to one of the UK's largest trading estates, the Team Valley, together with industrial clusters at Felling, Saltmeadows and Follingsby. Manufacturers, distributors and logistics operators across these estates need responsive, fully certified industrial electrical support, and that has been a core part of our work for years.

Three-Phase Industrial Expertise

Most Gateshead industrial sites run on a 415V three-phase supply driving motors, compressors, CNC machinery, dust extraction and racking-mounted lighting. Our engineers are experienced with three-phase distribution boards, motor control panels, sub-mains design, and the inspection and testing requirements of BS 7671 Section 729 for operating and maintenance gangways. See our Industrial Electrical service for the full scope.

Local Project Example: Bay Plastics

A representative example of this work is our project at Bay Plastics in North Shields, a full industrial unit upgrade including three-phase distribution, machinery isolators and high-bay LED lighting, completed in planned shutdown windows. We deliver similar work for Gateshead manufacturers on the Team Valley and at Follingsby Park.

Compliance and Regulations on Industrial Sites

• Electricity at Work Regulations 1989: duty-holder responsibility for safe systems

• PUWER 1998: safe machinery isolation and lock-off procedures
• BS 5266: emergency lighting along escape routes and high-risk task areas
• EICR every 3 years for industrial environments (IET Guidance Note 3)

What Gateshead Manufacturers Ask Us For Most

• Planned preventative maintenance contracts with set visit frequencies
• Machinery installs, isolators and dedicated supplies for new lines
• LED high-bay lighting retrofits, typical payback under 24 months
• Thermal imaging of distribution boards to catch hot joints before failure
