Electrical contracting built on working drawings, not guesswork.
Integrated electrical and mechanical services for mineral screening, crushing, coal processing and industrial utility plants — from power distribution and controls to pumping, extraction, standby power and fault finding.
Powering industry with precision and compliance.
It is the standard we hold every job to. Work is set out from drawings, built to specification, tested before hand‑over and certified to SANS 10142‑1 — so plants energise safely, inspections pass first time and production keeps moving.
Services schedule
Every job starts as a line item — priced, specified and signed off before a single cable is pulled.
Automation, Telemetry & Drives
PLC / SCADA / VSD / VFDModern control on top of the MCC — PLC integration and remote telemetry/SCADA for visibility on pump and process performance, plus supply and installation of VSDs, VFDs and soft starters across Schneider Electric, Siemens and WEG ranges, specified to the motor rather than a fixed size band.
Plant Structures & Control Philosophy
Design intentImplementation of plant structures and control philosophy on site — translating process requirements into working electrical and control layouts that operators can actually run.

Sectors served
Industrial, mining and commercial sites where downtime isn’t an option and the wiring has to outlast the plant.
Wastewater Treatment Works
Sewer pump station MCC rewiring, level control (Mobrey transmitters), and motor circuits for bioreactor and pump duty.
Mobile Screening & Crusher Plants
Mineral mobile screening machines, crushers and conveyors with heavy-duty motor control, safety interlocks and cabling for high-vibration, high-dust environments.
Coal Wash Plants
Power, instrumentation, drives and control philosophy for coal beneficiation, wash plant and materials-handling operations.
Mining Sites
Surface and plant-side electrical installations for mining operations — MCCs, conveyor and drive circuits, distribution and area lighting built for dust, vibration and continuous production.
Construction Sites
Temporary and permanent site power — construction supplies, distribution boards, reticulation, cabling and lighting installed, tested and certified to SANS 10142-1 as the build progresses.
Engineering Workshops
Machine and workshop installations — three-phase machine circuits, welding points, compressors, overhead cranes and workshop distribution boards, with fault-finding on existing equipment.
Fuel Pump Stations
Forecourt and depot electrical work — dispenser and submersible pump circuits, tank gauging, canopy and island lighting, with hazardous-area compliant wiring, testing and certification.
Generators & UPS Systems
Standby power installations — generator and UPS supply sizing, changeover and AMF panels, cabling and protection, plus load testing and scheduled maintenance so backup power holds when the grid drops.
Solar Installations & Maintenance
Solar PV and hybrid systems — panel mounting, inverter and battery installation, DC and AC protection and grid changeover integration, with panel cleaning, inverter checks and routine maintenance.

Our work
Real projects across MCC rehabilitation, borehole and pump station installations, bulk water storage and mobile screening plants — from stripped-out panels and open trenches to commissioned systems.
Vandalised MCC rehabilitation & control panel builds
A stripped and vandalised motor control centre taken from an empty shell back to a fully operational panel by GTEP Engineering — rewired section by section, fitted with new panel fronts and a Schneider Electric Masterpact main incomer, and handed back in service. Photographed from the vandalised starting point through rewiring to the commissioned MCC, alongside the pump and process control panels built on the same standard.
