New tenant moving in? Existing tenant changing space? We handle the full electrical scope — circuits, lighting, outlets, low-voltage — coordinated with the GC and other trades on tight timelines.
Tenant build-outs are deadline-driven. The lease starts on a date. The tenant has equipment delivery scheduled. The grand opening is on the calendar. The electrical scope cannot be the thing that holds up the project. ABC Electric Inc. handles tenant build-out electrical for property managers, commercial landlords, GCs, and tenants across central Kentucky.
Our build-out work covers the full scope: pulling new circuits from the building's main panel or sub-panel, installing the right outlets in the right places (including specialty outlets for restaurant equipment, medical devices, retail POS), lighting design and installation, low-voltage data and AV cabling, and coordination with HVAC, plumbing, and the GC on scheduling.
We have done build-outs for restaurants, retail spaces, medical offices, professional services, salons, fitness studios, light manufacturing, and more. Each industry has different electrical requirements — restaurant kitchens need 240V outlets in specific locations, medical offices need dedicated equipment circuits, retail needs specialty lighting and POS power. We come prepared with industry knowledge so the tenant gets exactly what they need.
Here is what is typically included when we handle this service for you.
Plan review, permit application, and code compliance verification before work starts.
Pulling fresh circuits from main or sub-panels. Sized for tenant equipment loads.
Custom lighting for the space type. Retail accents, office ambient, restaurant zones.
240V for kitchen equipment, dedicated medical circuits, POS systems, AV displays.
Cat6 data, security wiring, AV pre-wire, doorbell intercoms — all coordinated.
Working closely with general contractor and other trades to hit completion deadlines.
