Running large machinery or heavy electrical systems? Poor power factor could be costing your business more than you think. At Expert Electric Group, we provide power factor testing and correction services that help commercial and industrial facilities reduce energy waste, avoid penalties, and improve overall system efficiency.
What Is Power Factor?
Power factor is a measure of how effectively your facility uses electricity. A low power factor means your system is drawing more energy than necessary — often resulting in higher utility bills and unnecessary strain on your electrical infrastructure.

- High utility bills despite normal usage
- Large motors, compressors, or HVAC systems in use
- Utility provider surcharges or reactive power penalties
- Existing capacitor banks not functioning properly
Our Services Include:
- On-site power factor testing and load analysis
- Capacitor bank sizing and installation
- Harmonic filtering (if needed)
- System balancing and optimization
- Ongoing monitoring and maintenance options
Benefits of Power Factor Correction:
- Lower monthly utility costs
