Ames anchors Iowa State University and a growing agricultural biotech research corridor, with institutional, research laboratory, and commercial facility engineering as dominant project types.

What we design

Electrical design for Ames healthcare & medical facilities lives or dies on coordination — with MidAmerican Energy, with the Ames building department, and with the other trades. Torch Engineering sizes services, lays out distribution, and documents lighting and controls to ASHRAE 90.1 and the IECC, then seals the set with a Iowa-licensed PE so permitting moves the first time.

  • Ames, IA electrical plan check focuses on load calculations, panel schedules, and one-line accuracy — our submittals answer those comments before the reviewer writes them, which is why our permits move.
  • Send us the floor plans and load list; Ames, IA projects get a firm electrical quote back quickly and permit-ready drawings sealed by a Iowa-licensed PE.
  • Lighting layouts and controls for Ames healthcare & medical facilities engineered to ASHRAE 90.1 and the IECC: photometric plans, daylighting zones, and occupancy/vacancy controls that pass Iowa's energy review without post-permit value engineering.
  • Grounding, bonding, and surge protection engineered for Iowa's conditions — Ames institutional & civic need power quality that holds up, and our drawings spell out every electrode and bond.
  • For Ames institutional & civic, distribution design covers switchgear lineups, feeder routing, and transformer placement — coordinated with the architectural layout so electrical rooms land where they are actually buildable.
