Industrial Electrical Brisbane

If you need a qualified industrial electrician in Brisbane, Hexar Solutions delivers the kind of hands-on, technically capable service that factories, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities actually require. We are a specialist industrial electrical contractor based in Wynnum, Brisbane, with over 30 years of experience working across heavy industry, food and beverage processing, mining support facilities, and general manufacturing. Whether you need power distribution upgrades, switchboard installation, or full factory electrical fitout, our licensed team works to Australian standards and gets the job done with minimal disruption to your operation.

Industrial Electrical Services for Brisbane and South-East Queensland

Industrial electrical work is a different discipline from residential or commercial contracting. The scope is larger, the safety stakes are higher, and the cost of downtime on a production floor is real. Hexar Solutions focuses exclusively on industrial and automation electrical work — it is what our team trains for, it is what our systems are built around, and it is the environment our electricians are most experienced in.

We hold electrical contractor licences in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, and Western Australia, and we are certified to ISO 9001 quality management standards. For clients in Brisbane, that means a local team that understands the Queensland regulatory environment, knows the relevant inspection and compliance processes, and can commit to project timelines without logistical headaches.

Our Brisbane service area covers the greater metropolitan region including Wynnum, Moreton Bay, Logan, Ipswich, and Redlands. For larger industrial projects, we operate nationally.

What We Do — Typical Scope of Industrial Electrical Work

Industrial electrical projects vary significantly in scope and complexity. Below is a practical overview of the work our Brisbane team regularly carries out for manufacturing and industrial clients.

Power Distribution and Switchboard Installation

Power distribution is the backbone of any industrial facility. Our electricians design, install, and commission main switchboards, motor control centres (MCCs), distribution boards, and sub-boards, all built and installed in compliance with AS/NZS 3000 (Wiring Rules). We work with both low-voltage and high-voltage systems, manage load calculations and cable sizing properly, and document everything to the standard required for compliance and future maintenance.

For facilities undergoing expansion or equipment upgrades, we also carry out switchboard audits and upgrades — identifying where existing infrastructure is undersized, non-compliant, or creating a safety risk before it becomes a problem.

Factory Electrical Fitouts and Fitout Extensions

New factory builds and tenancy fitouts require careful coordination between the electrical contractor, mechanical trades, and the client’s operations team. We work directly with project managers, builders, and facility managers to plan cable routes, containment systems, and equipment connections around production layouts — not the other way around. Our team understands that production flow, equipment placement, and future expandability matter as much as the electrical spec itself.

Motor and Drive Installations

Motors, variable speed drives (VSDs), soft starters, and associated control wiring form a large portion of industrial electrical work in manufacturing environments. We install, wire, and commission these systems to manufacturer specifications and Australian standards, and our team has practical experience with common industrial drive brands used across the food, packaging, materials handling, and processing sectors.

Electrical Work in Construction and Temporary Sites

Where work is being carried out in construction or temporary environments, we comply with AS/NZS 3012 (Electrical Installations — Construction and Demolition Sites), including appropriate RCD protection, inspections, and tagging requirements. This is a detail that matters on projects involving staged construction, temporary power supplies, or ongoing facility expansion while production continues.

Electrical Maintenance and Fault Finding

Unplanned downtime is expensive. Our electricians carry out scheduled preventative maintenance, thermographic inspections, and reactive fault finding for industrial clients across Brisbane. We maintain accurate records, flag potential failure points before they occur, and can work within planned maintenance windows to avoid production impact.

Frequently Asked Questions — Industrial Electrical Contractor Brisbane

What qualifications does an industrial electrical contractor need in Queensland?

In Queensland, all electrical contractors must hold a current electrical contractor licence issued by the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC). Individual electricians must hold a valid electrical worker licence. For industrial work specifically, experience with the relevant Australian standards — particularly AS/NZS 3000 for wiring installations and AS/NZS 3012 for construction site electrical work — is essential. Hexar Solutions holds a current Queensland electrical contractor licence and maintains licences in four other Australian states.

What is typically involved in an industrial electrical fitout in Brisbane?

A factory or industrial fitout typically involves main switchboard installation, sub-board and distribution board installation, cable containment systems (cable tray, conduit, cable ladder), power and lighting circuits, equipment connections, motor and drive installations, earthing and bonding, and final testing and inspection. The scope depends on the facility size, installed plant, and the nature of the production process. A proper site assessment and load schedule should be completed before design and installation commences.

Do you work on live industrial sites while production is running?

Yes. A significant portion of our Brisbane industrial electrical work takes place on sites that cannot afford a full production shutdown. We plan around your operational schedule, utilise planned maintenance windows, and use safe work procedures appropriate for live electrical environments. All live work is carried out under a documented permit-to-work system in line with current safety legislation and Australian standards.

Which areas around Brisbane do you service for industrial electrical work?

Our base is in Wynnum, Brisbane. We regularly carry out industrial electrical work across the greater Brisbane metropolitan area including Moreton Bay, Logan, Ipswich, and Redlands. For larger industrial and manufacturing projects, we operate nationally across Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, and Western Australia. Call us on 1300 365 700 to confirm coverage for your specific site location.

What Australian standards apply to industrial electrical installations?

The primary standard for electrical wiring installations in Australia is AS/NZS 3000, commonly referred to as the Wiring Rules. This standard covers requirements for switchboards, wiring methods, protection, earthing, and testing. Where work is being carried out on construction or demolition sites, AS/NZS 3012 applies and sets specific requirements for temporary supplies, RCD protection, inspection intervals, and equipment tagging. Hexar Solutions designs and installs all industrial electrical systems in compliance with applicable Australian standards as a baseline requirement.

How do I get a quote for industrial electrical work in Brisbane?

The most straightforward way is to contact our team directly with a description of the project, the site address, and any drawings or specifications you have available. For larger or more complex projects, we will arrange a site visit to assess the existing infrastructure, understand your operational requirements, and provide an accurate, detailed quote.
