Electrical & Utilities
Short shutdown, no drying time — switchgear, motors and substation equipment cleaned in your isolation window.
Short shutdown, no drying time — switchgear, motors and substation equipment cleaned in your isolation window.
Substation and electrical equipment reliability depends on clean insulation, terminals and cooling paths — but conventional cleaning needs a long shutdown, and water or solvent introduces risk to insulation and adds drying time before re-energisation. We only work on equipment your licensed electrician has isolated and proven de-energised, with our own lock and tag on the point of isolation. Dry ice leaves no residue and needs no drying time, so the shutdown window is shorter, not eliminated.
Short shutdown, no drying time — switchgear, motors and substation equipment cleaned in your isolation window.
The pain points we hear most
- Shutdowns for cleaning are revenue-critical
- Water or solvent damages insulation
- Compressed air drives contaminants deeper
- Audit-trail documentation is required for asset register
How dry ice solves them
De-energised only, fast turnaround
Isolated and proven dead by your licensed electrical worker before we start; no water, no drying time, so the outage is shorter.
Insulation preserved
No moisture intrusion into windings, busbars or terminals.
Cooler running
Cleaner cooling paths reduce operating temperatures and extend asset life.
Asset register documentation
Per-asset photo and IR-test record provided.
Documented to your standards.
Every job in this vertical produces the documentation pack your auditor, adjuster or compliance team needs.
- Asset-owner safety case alignment
- IR-test before/after on request
- Public liability insured to $20m (certificate on request)

Electrical & Utilities — FAQs
Can you really clean switchgear live?
No. We only blast switchgear that your licensed electrical worker has isolated and proven de-energised, with our own lock and tag on the isolation point. What dry ice does is make that outage short — no water, no solvent, no drying time before your electrician re-energises.
Do you handle the IR test?
We coordinate with your electrical authority for IR testing before and after cleaning.
