Many farms in Central and Eastern Ontario still rely on aging electrical infrastructure, which can lead to power reliability issues, inefficiencies, and safety risks. As farms expand and electrical demand increases, older systems may struggle to keep up. Ensuring your power system is up to date is essential for keeping equipment running, avoiding outages, and maintaining a safe working environment.

At Polecat Power Line Company, we specialize in replacing aging service wires, updating private power lines, and working on behalf of property owners to coordinate transformer upgrades with Hydro One. Whether your farm needs new poles, service wire replacements, or general power system improvements, we make sure your electrical infrastructure is built to meet your current and future needs.

Signs Your Farm’s Power System Needs an Upgrade

Over time, exposure to the elements and increased power demands can weaken your electrical system. Here are some common signs that it may be time for an upgrade:

• Leaning, rotting, or damaged poles that threaten power stability

• Outdated service wires that may not support modern farm operations

• Voltage fluctuations or frequent outages due to overloaded infrastructure

• Sagging or damaged power lines that create fire and safety hazards

• Expanded operations that require a transformer upgrade

If your transformer needs an upgrade, we’ll work on your behalf with Hydro One to have it replaced, then ensure your service wires and connections are properly updated.
