We build the power behind commercial sites, fast chargers and EPC projects.
Penta Electric is a licensed electrical contractor based in Meridian, Idaho. We develop and build DC fast-charging sites, take projects from design to energization as a full EPC contractor, and handle commercial electrical service from the utility transformer to the last panel.

How we develop sitesEngineering, procurement and construction
One contract for design, equipment and construction on commercial power and charging projects, through energization.
EPC servicesWe care about the details.
Electrical work lasts decades. We build it to be inspected, maintained and expanded long after we leave the site.
Clean, deliberate installs
Straight conduit runs, dressed conductors, torqued terminations and labels on every panel, disconnect and conduit.
Built to code, ready for inspection
Every job runs under a licensed master electrician and is built to pass inspection, not fixed after it.
Documented handoff
As-builts, photos, panel schedules and test results, so owners know exactly what they have.
Clear communication
One point of contact, honest schedules and no surprises from utility coordination to energization.
Recent projects

From an empty parking lot to an energized fast-charging plaza
Penta develops DC fast-charging sites with property owners and capital partners, then builds them as the licensed electrical contractor. One team carries the project from site control to commissioning.
Our master electrician holds EVITP certification, which many utility and state charger programs require.
Talk about a siteHow we develop a site
- Site screen: traffic, parking layout and nearby chargers
- Site control: LOI and lease with the property owner
- Utility capacity: service requests and will-serve letters from Xcel Energy, Colorado Springs Utilities, Idaho Power and others
- Funding: state grants and utility rebates, prepared in-house
- Design and permitting: stamped electrical and civil plan sets
- Build and commission: switchgear, conduit, chargers, testing and network activation
Engineering, procurement and construction under one contract
Penta carries commercial power and fast-charging projects from the first layout to energization. You get one accountable team for design, equipment and the build, instead of juggling an engineer, a supplier and an electrician.
We hold master electrician licenses in five states and EVITP certification, and we work directly with utilities such as Idaho Power, Xcel Energy, Colorado Springs Utilities and many others.

Built safely. Built to last. Built to pass.
Electrical work is only finished when it is safe, inspected and documented. That standard applies on every Penta site, from a panel change to a fast-charging plaza.
Everyone goes home the way they came
Our crews work under a licensed master electrician and OSHA 30-trained leadership. Safety planning starts before the first conduit is set.
On every site
- Hazard review before work starts
- Lockout/tagout on every circuit before work begins
- Arc-flash-rated PPE and NFPA 70E practices for energized work
- Clean, organized work areas and secured equipment
- Coordination with the utility before any service work
We care about the details.
The parts you can see tell you how the parts you can't see were built.
Clean, deliberate installs
Straight conduit runs, dressed conductors, torqued terminations and labels on every panel, disconnect and conduit.
Planned for inspection
Every job is built to code and planned to pass inspection the first time, not fixed afterward.
Tested before turn-on
Torque, polarity and insulation resistance are tested before equipment is energized and commissioned.
Clear communication
One point of contact, honest schedules and no surprises from utility coordination to energization.
The details, up close
You know exactly what you have
When we finish, owners get a closeout package they can hand to their maintenance team, their insurer or the next contractor.
Closeout package
- As-built drawings and single-line diagram
- Panel schedules and equipment labels
- Test and commissioning results
