A breaker that will not stay on. A parking lot light that has been dark for two weeks. An outlet bank in the back office that stopped working. Commercial electrical repair is often a same-day or next-day call because downtime costs money.

Commercial Panel Upgrade in Arlington TX

Adding equipment. Adding EV charging for a fleet or employees. Expanding into adjacent space. All of these hit the same wall - the existing panel does not have the capacity. A commercial panel upgrade is frequently the enabler for business expansion in Arlington TX.

Commercial panel upgrades run on a different timeline and scale than residential. Three-phase panels, larger amperage services, Oncor coordination for increased demand - all part of the job.

Tenant Finish-Out Electrician in Arlington TX

A tenant finish-out is the electrical build-out of a leased commercial space. New tenant, new requirements. Whether the prior tenant was a nail salon and you are opening a dental office, or the space is raw shell and needs everything from scratch, this is where most Arlington TX commercial electrical work starts.

We work with property managers, tenants, and GCs on tenant finish-outs throughout Arlington TX commercial corridors - along I-20, I-30, Highway 360, and the Entertainment District near AT&T Stadium. We pull permits, coordinate inspections, and deliver on your move-in date.

Restaurant Electrician in Arlington TX

Restaurant electrical is its own discipline. Hood ventilation circuits. Three-phase for commercial ovens, fryers, and steamers. Walk-in cooler and freezer circuits. Dedicated POS and register circuits. Exterior sign and patio lighting.

A residential electrician who has never wired a commercial kitchen will make mistakes that cost you a health inspection or a delayed opening. We have wired restaurant build-outs and kitchen remodels throughout the Arlington TX and DFW market. We know what a restaurant kitchen requires before we walk in.

Three-Phase Electrical Services in Arlington TX

Three-phase power delivers higher voltage and current than standard single-phase residential and light commercial service. It is required for large commercial HVAC systems, industrial equipment, commercial elevators, and high-capacity manufacturing machinery.

If you are installing equipment that requires three-phase power and your current service is single-phase, an upgrade to three-phase service is required. We assess the feasibility, coordinate with Oncor for the service upgrade, and install the panel and distribution equipment.

What Is Three-Phase Power and Does Your Arlington TX Business Need It?

Most small businesses in Arlington TX run on single-phase power - the same basic electrical service as a home, just with a larger panel and higher amperage. Single-phase handles lighting, outlets, standard commercial HVAC, and most office equipment without issue.

Three-phase power becomes relevant when:

📙 Single-Phase - Most Small Businesses

Standard service for most Arlington TX offices, retail stores, and small restaurants. Handles lighting, outlets, standard HVAC, POS systems, and general office equipment.

If all your equipment plugs into standard 120V or 240V outlets, single-phase is likely sufficient.

⚡ Three-Phase - When You Need It

You are installing commercial cooking equipment rated for three-phase (most heavy commercial kitchen equipment is three-phase)
Your HVAC system is a large commercial unit requiring three-phase service
You operate CNC machinery, industrial compressors, or other heavy manufacturing equipment
You are installing a commercial elevator
Your electrical load has grown to the point where three-phase distribution is more efficient

⚠ Call Before You Sign the Lease or Purchase the Equipment

If a vendor or equipment supplier tells you that a piece of equipment requires three-phase power and your space does not have it, call us before signing a lease or purchasing the equipment. We assess whether three-phase is available at the meter for that property through Oncor and what the upgrade involves. If Oncor needs to upgrade the transformer, lead times can run four to eight weeks - which changes your timeline.

Commercial Areas We Serve in Arlington TX

Bolt Electric works throughout Arlington TX commercial areas. Here is where most of our commercial work is concentrated:

🏆 Entertainment District & AT&T Stadium Area

The area surrounding AT&T Stadium, Six Flags Over Texas, and Globe Life Field is one of the most active commercial electrical markets in the DFW area. Restaurants, hotels, entertainment venues, and retail in this corridor frequently need tenant finish-outs, equipment upgrades, and commercial lighting work. We know the City of Arlington permit and inspection process for this area well.

🚗 I-20 Commercial Corridor

The I-20 corridor through South Arlington has a high concentration of strip mall retail, restaurant pads, and light industrial properties. Older properties in this corridor frequently need panel upgrades, parking lot lighting updates, and tenant finish-out electrical for changing tenants.

🏢 Highway 360 & Green Oaks Business Corridor

North Arlington along Highway 360 and Green Oaks Boulevard has newer commercial and office development. Tenant finish-outs, office build-outs, and medical office electrical are common in this area.

🏭 I-30 Industrial Corridor & East Arlington

East Arlington along I-30 has a mix of warehouse, distribution, and light industrial properties. Three-phase electrical services, heavy equipment circuits, and commercial panel upgrades are frequent in this area.

🔧 Dalworthington Gardens & Hurst Commercial

We cover commercial electric repair in Dalworthington Gardens and Hurst. Older commercial buildings in these areas often need panel assessments and electrical system updates.

What Commercial Electrical Work Involves in Arlington TX

📝 City of Arlington Commercial Permits

All commercial electrical work in Arlington TX requires permits from City of Arlington Development Services. Commercial permits involve a plan review process for larger projects - not just a same-day permit pull.

For tenant finish-outs, allow three to seven business days for permit approval on projects that require reviewed drawings.

We handle the permit application and work with the City of Arlington on any required plan review. For clients with tight move-in timelines, we advise on the permit timeline early so there are no surprises.

⚡ Oncor Coordination for Service Upgrades

Commercial service upgrades - increasing amperage or adding three-phase service - require Oncor involvement. Oncor determines whether the existing transformer at your building can support the increased load.

Lead times for Oncor transformer upgrades can run four to eight weeks.

If you are planning a major expansion that will require a service upgrade, involve us early. We coordinate the Oncor application and give you a realistic timeline before you commit to a lease or purchase timeline.

📅 Working Around Business Hours

Most commercial electrical work can be scheduled to minimize disruption to your operation. We stage work in phases when possible, schedule high-disruption work during off-hours, and sequence the project so your business can continue operating during construction.

For restaurants and retail businesses, we coordinate heavily with your operating schedule. A restaurant cannot have its kitchen dark during a dinner service. We plan around your hours.

Frequently Asked Questions - Commercial Electrician in Arlington TX

We handle the full range of small and mid-size commercial electrical work in Arlington TX: commercial electrical repair, commercial panel upgrades, tenant finish-out electrical, restaurant and kitchen wiring, three-phase electrical installation, commercial lighting (LED retrofits, parking lot lighting, signage), commercial EV charger installation, and commercial generator service. We work with restaurant owners, property managers, GCs, office and retail tenants, and warehouse operations throughout Arlington TX.

Yes. Tenant finish-out is one of our most common commercial jobs. We work with tenants, property managers, and GCs to build out leased commercial spaces throughout Arlington TX. This includes permit coordination with the City of Arlington, rough-in wiring, panel connections, device installation, and final inspection. We coordinate our schedule with the GC's timeline and advise on the permit review period early so there are no surprises on your move-in date.

Yes. Restaurant electrical is a specialty. We wire commercial kitchens for hood ventilation systems, three-phase commercial cooking equipment (ovens, fryers, steamers), walk-in cooler and freezer circuits, dedicated POS circuits, hand sink outlets, and exterior sign and patio lighting. We have wired restaurant build-outs and kitchen remodels throughout the Arlington TX market. If you are opening a new location or remodeling an existing kitchen, call us early - restaurant electrical needs to be coordinated with your equipment delivery and health inspection timeline.

First, we determine whether three-phase service is available at the meter for your property. Oncor provides the utility service and may or may not have three-phase available at your location. If it is available, we install the new panel and distribution equipment. If three-phase is not available at the meter, Oncor needs to upgrade the transformer, which typically takes four to eight weeks. We coordinate the Oncor application and give you a realistic timeline before you commit to equipment purchases or lease terms.

For small straightforward tenant finish-outs, the City of Arlington can often issue a permit within two to five business days. For projects that require plan review - larger spaces, new service connections, or significant electrical changes - plan review can take one to three weeks. We advise on the likely review timeline for your specific project when we assess the scope. If you have a hard move-in deadline, we factor the permit timeline into the project schedule from the start.

Yes. Commercial electrical repair across Arlington TX, Dalworthington Gardens, and Hurst is one of our regular service areas. We handle breaker failures, dead circuit sections, parking lot light failures, outlet and panel issues in commercial buildings, and emergency repair when your business cannot wait. We prioritize commercial repair calls because we understand that downtime in a commercial space costs more than the repair itself.

Yes. Commercial EV charger installation is a growing part of our work in Arlington TX. This includes employee charging stations in office and retail parking lots, fleet vehicle charging in warehouses and operations facilities, and multi-family property charging infrastructure. Commercial EV charger installation often requires a panel capacity assessment and sometimes a panel upgrade or new service connection. We assess the existing electrical service and give you a full scope and timeline before work begins.
