Electrical infrastructure, architectural lighting and controls coordinated for boutique retail, private offices and distinctive commercial interiors.
Commercial electrical work starts with the inputs: the owner's program, the architect's plans and the construction team's schedule. From those, Regent5 produces the drawings and schedules for its own scope, including load calculations and panel schedules, one-line diagrams, equipment room layouts and pathway drawings. Where a project needs stamped documents, the project's engineer provides them and Regent5 coordinates the electrical scope to match. Settling circuits, equipment locations and pathways at this stage keeps them out of the field.
How a commercial project runs: process and scopeLighting in a commercial interior is designed, not laid out. Regent5 coordinates fixtures, circuits, controls and finish details so trims, keypads and drivers land where the design intends and the electrical behind them supports the load. Regent5 is a certified Lutron dealer for Athena and Vive in commercial spaces. Scenes, schedules, occupancy and daylight response are set up for the way the space is used, and the control layout is documented for the people who will run it.
Commercial lighting control and DMXOffice and retail fit-outs and major renovations carry constraints a new building does not: landlord and building engineer approvals, limited access, after-hours work windows and a construction sequence shared with other trades. Regent5 plans the electrical scope around those conditions, from demolition and temporary power through rough-in, trim and inspection, with the building's existing systems kept in service wherever the work allows. Power, lighting and technology pathways are coordinated in one set of drawings.
Office and workplace technologyWhen a space needs more power than it has, Regent5 handles the customer-owned side: service and panel upgrades, customer-side transformers, and 120/208V and 277/480V distribution to the equipment that needs it. Load calculations come first, so the upgrade matches the real demand of lighting, HVAC, kitchen or lab equipment and technology racks. Where the serving utility is involved, Regent5 coordinates the customer side of the process; available capacity, approvals and energization timing stay with the utility.
Three-phase power and commercial electricalUtility coordination and applicant designExisting commercial spaces need an electrical contractor that answers the phone after the project is over. Regent5 handles repairs and service calls, wiring upgrades, added circuits and dedicated power for new equipment, lighting replacements and full electrical makeovers of occupied spaces. Work is scheduled around business hours where the job allows, documented when complete, and tied back to the same drawings so the next change starts from a known condition.
Request SupportMost commercial electrical projects also carry a technology scope: conference rooms, WiFi and networks, cameras and door access, distributed audio and video. Regent5 provides one team for the electrical and the low-voltage scope, so pathways, dedicated circuits, rack power and equipment rooms are planned together rather than reconciled on site. The result is fewer handoffs, fewer conflicts at rough-in and systems that can be serviced as one installation.

Regent5's commercial work includes law firms, fintech and startup offices, incubation centers, medical offices and practices, and hospitality venues such as wineries, restaurants and hotels. That work has covered AV and distributed audio and video, security, WiFi and networking, climate control, and electrical service, repairs and wiring upgrades. Commercial electrical projects run across San Francisco, the Peninsula including Palo Alto, Menlo Park and San Mateo, the South Bay, the East Bay, Marin, Wine Country and the Monterey Peninsula. Select engagements extend to Santa Barbara, the Los Angeles area, and Orange County.

Service and supportTenant improvements, office and retail fit-outs, major renovations and electrical upgrades where the electrical work has to support a designed interior, plus repairs and service for existing commercial spaces. The strongest fit pairs the electrical scope with architectural lighting, lighting control or technology infrastructure so one team plans them together. Scope and drawings determine whether a project is a match, so a short description is the right first step.
Yes. Early planning works from the owner's program, preliminary architectural plans and the equipment list, and it is the stage where load calculations, service capacity and equipment room locations are easiest to settle. Regent5 issues its drawings and schedules in step with the design team, then updates them as the construction drawings firm up, so the electrical scope is resolved before rough-in rather than during it.
Regent5 coordinates the electrical design for its own scope: load calculations, panel schedules, one-line diagrams, equipment room layouts and pathway drawings. Where a project requires stamped documents, the project's engineer provides them, and Regent5 coordinates its electrical scope with that design and builds to it. Regent5 does not serve as the engineer of record, and responsibilities are written into the scope before work begins.
Yes. Regent5 plans architectural lighting, lighting control, power distribution and the pathways for conference rooms, WiFi and networks, cameras and door access as one set of drawings, and installs them with one team. Circuits, dedicated power, rack locations and equipment rooms are settled once, which removes most of the conflicts that appear when separate contractors meet at rough-in.
Regent5 handles the customer-owned side: load calculations, service and panel upgrades, customer-side transformers and 120/208V or 277/480V distribution. Where the serving utility is involved, Regent5 coordinates the customer side of the process and the documents it requires. Available capacity, approvals and energization dates are the utility's decisions, so Regent5 plans the schedule around them rather than promising them. Palo Alto projects coordinate with CPAU rather than PG&E.
Property type, location, project stage, the drawings available, the intended electrical and technology scope and the target schedule. A current site plan, the equipment list and any landlord requirements help if they exist. From that, Regent5 can confirm fit, flag utility questions early and propose a planning engagement. Cost follows scope and drawings, so a budget conversation starts once those are in hand.
