Planned, engineered, and built to support safe, scalable long‑term operation.
Ampirical designs substations across 15 kV to 500 kV for utilities, cooperatives, industrial customers, and data center operators. Our work spans new substations, expansions, and complex brownfield rebuilds requiring careful coordination across multiple disciplines.
Our design process covers every aspect of a substation; site civil, physical layout, structural steel, foundations, grounding, shielding, bus configurations, cable routing, conduit systems, control house design, and full protection and control integration. We design using both 2D and 3D platforms, adjusting to each client’s standards and preferences. 3D models help identify conflicts, validate clearances, support public‑facing visuals, and produce accurate bills of material.
Utilities rely on Ampirical for designs that reflect how stations are built, operated, and maintained. We support greenfield sites, high‑capacity data center substations, renewable collector stations, mission‑critical industrial facilities, and major system upgrades. During construction, our engineers respond to RFIs, participate in field reviews, support material clarification, and coordinate commissioning to ensure the work aligns with the design intent.
Our engineering is supported by multi‑discipline expertise, advanced modeling tools, grounding and shielding studies, structural analysis, and detailed QA/QC procedures. This ensures consistency, constructability, and alignment with utility standards.
Ampirical’s substation engineering team understood our standards immediately and delivered drawings we could take straight through review. Their attention to constructability saved us time once we hit the field.
From greenfield design through expansion planning, Ampirical felt like an extension of our internal team. They were responsive, practical, and clearly experienced with rural system constraints.
We appreciated how Ampirical balanced schedule, cost, and long-term operability in our substation design. Their experience showed in every design decision.
