Helping businesses reduce energy costs and improve efficiency

Power bills too high? Equipment running less efficiently than expected? Poor power factor could be costing your business more than you realise. At GLS Electrical, we provide complete Power Factor Correction (PFC) solutions for commercial and industrial facilities across the Snowy Monaro region — from new installations to ongoing servicing and emergency repairs.

Whether you’re trying to cut energy costs, extend the life of your electrical equipment, or comply with your network provider’s requirements, our licensed electricians can assess, install, and maintain the right PFC system for your site.

What is Power Factor Correction?

Power Factor Correction is a method used to improve the efficiency of your electrical system. In simple terms, it reduces the amount of non-productive power (reactive power) that your site draws from the grid.

A poor power factor can:
Lead to higher electricity bills
Result in penalties from your energy retailer
Place additional strain on your switchboard and electrical infrastructure
Reduce the lifespan of motors, pumps and sensitive equipment

PFC equipment helps correct this by stabilising your power usage and reducing energy waste — which is especially important for businesses with large machinery, compressors, HVAC systems, or motor-driven loads.
