No other college or university in the world can match the sheer size and scope of the Case Western Reserve University think[box].
This center for innovation and entrepreneurship provides a space for anyone – students, faculty, alumni and members of the community – to tinker and creatively invent.
Electricians Work electrical workers spent about 9,000 hours helping build think[box].It is the third most popular facility on campus, producing attendance figures on par with the athletics center and the library.
Located in a seven-story, 50,000 square foot facility, with four floors occupied and more under renovation, this project is the largest open-access innovation center at any university in the world.
Think[box] is home to a handful of 3-D printers, electronic instrumentation, wood-working, metal-working and other construction tools, a welder, laser cutters, a printed circuit board router and other equipment.
Case Western Reserve did not want just any electricians to help build their center for innovation – they wanted the best, which is why they hired an Electricians Work contractor.
With complex wiring and the need for a steady supply of accurate power distributed to some a wide of equipment, the university wanted highly skilled and highly trained electricians on the job to get the work done right.
A mistake in power distribution or wiring could not only lead to the destruction of a sensitive or expensive piece of equipment, but it could also lead to someone getting hurt.
That’s why Case choose an Electricians Work contractor – to use experienced and certified electrical workers to perform high quality work and get the job done.
These highly skilled and highly trained electrical workers spent about 9,000 hours onsite completing their portion of the think[box] contract.

During the ribbon cutting ceremony, construction workers received high praise for completing the Cleveland Downtown Hilton Hotel on time and $20 million under budget.
Electricians Work electrical workers helped build the Downtown Hilton Hotel.
Nearly $310 million was budgeted for the 32-story hotel project, and thanks to skilled tradesmen and tradeswomen, including the area’s top electrical workers, that number was never in danger of being exceeded. Through high quality work, trades members saved enough money during hotel construction to fund an additional project to build an underground walkway from a parking garage across the street to the Hilton.
Considered a key piece of the city’s bid to host the Republican National Convention, the Hilton was built in just over two years.
The 600-room hotel now serves as a showcase to the rest of America why projects of all scopes and sizes should be built with Electricians Work contractors – because the electrical portion of any contract will be built with high quality craftsmanship, come in on time and on or under budget. These skilled electrical workers put in over 200,000 man hours. At its peak, the project employed 85 electrical workers.
Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson and Cuyahoga County Executive Armond Budish both thanked the tradesmen and tradeswomen for not only their hard work, but also for the high quality of work performed on the project.
During the ribbon cutting ceremony, Jackson admitted he was initially worried that the hotel would not be built in time. However, his fears were calmed during the first project meeting when the contractors promised him the construction crews could get the structure built in time for it to open for the RNC.
The crews backed up their contractors’ words through their hard work and dedication as the region’s highly trained and skilled tradesmen and tradeswomen, including elite electrical workers, used their skills to provide quality work when constructing Cleveland’s newest skyscraper.

In 1974, construction began on the nation’s 100th nuclear power plant.
From the mid-1970s through its opening on Nov. 18, 1987, highly skilled and highly trained electrical workers put in millions of man-hours to construct the Perry Nuclear Power Plant.
Electrical workers prepare to begin perform maintenance on exterior high mast lights at Perry Nuclear Power Plant.
When this vital power facility requires any type of electrical maintenance or electrical systems upgrade, the region’s top electrical contractors, who are part of Electricians Work, bring the region’s top electrical workers into the plant to complete the work under a tight deadline to perform a variety of tasks.
Nuclear work varies, but a great deal of manpower is needed to run 4-inch conduit, pull 750 MCM cable, rig (occasionally rather complex) large transformers and motors inside areas of the plant and install high voltage transformers. A small amount of time is also dedicated to wire work of controls and instrumentation.
Electrical workers must follow an extensive set of rules in addition to general industry standards they have received during apprenticeship training. They frequently have the opportunity to provide input into the design process of future work because they interact with engineers on a daily basis during larger projects. Oftentimes, they are asked to provide ideas to rework or replace components of legacy equipment. Electrical workers also build equipment used to make the installation process more efficient.
Electricians Work contractors install a start up transformer at Perry Nuclear Power Plant.
During outages, which occur every two years, electrical workers install transformers, temporary cable, disconnects and approximately 40 trailer hook-ups to provide power in the facilities for an additional 700 personnel to work the outage. They also install instrumentation in the lower spent fuel pool to ensure the level of the water remains within the tightly controlled temperature parameters.
Electricians and installer techs work closely with the reactor generator manufacturer during a re-fueling outage when they work underneath the reactor vessel to replace and repair cables in the Loose Parts Remote Monitoring system.
Over a period of four years (two outages) electricians installed two 345/13.8kV start-up transformers; rigged structural components of the transformer (insulators, corona rings, neutral resistor, termination boxes, etc.), performed 13.8 kV cable repair and terminations and instrumentation and control circuit installation.
An Electricians Work electrician works to replace an original early 80’s vintage seismic monitoring system with a state-of-the-art industry system.
In the radiation waste control room, an Electricians Work contractor recently updated an analog control system to PLC technology. This work was done while the system was still operational – necessitating close cooperation with Plant Operations personnel and careful orchestration of scheduled activities in the plant that would affect the system. Electricians installed new trough near existing cabinets and ran 3-inch and 4-inch conduit to make it possible to replace the old system with the new. Approximately 13,000 terminations were completed in the cabinets before a lengthy check and test process ensured that the system functioned as designed.
Electricians Work contractors were also selected to replace the original early 1980s seismic monitoring system with a state-of-the-art industry system. Electrical workers welded supports and installed approximately 500 feet of conduit on multiple levels of the plant, both inside and outside of containment, pulled thousands of feet of wire and installed the new seismic monitoring equipment.

The deal to renovate Quicken Loans Arena is generating quality construction jobs, including jobs for electrical workers who work for Electricians Work contractors.
The renovation project is expected to create 200 construction jobs, including jobs for highly trained and highly skilled electrical workers, who work for an Electricians Work contractor.
Only the region’s highly skilled and highly trained electrical workers will perform the electrical work on this project. The Cavaliers trust them to perform quality work and get it finished on a tight construction timeline.
Initially, the team withdrew plans for The Q Transformation Project from the city in 2017 shortly after a community group attempted to put The Q renovation finance deal on the ballot as a referendum issue.
The City of Cleveland went to court over the issue, and the Ohio Supreme Court ruled the initiative was valid and had to go before voters.
Following the court ruling, Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert withdrew from the deal on Aug. 29, claiming the referendum delay would cost the team extra money due to the delayed construction start. Just two days after the Cavs ended the deal, on Aug. 31, the community group requested to withdraw their petition referendum. After this development, the team decided to go-ahead with the project.
Upgrade work at the arena will include a new glass exterior, alleviating crowded concourses and creating pre- and post-event space for visitors.
