Linamar Giga Factory

Procon successfully completed the construction of Linamar’s groundbreaking Giga Facility. This 300,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art manufacturing plant represents a major advancement in electric vehicle (EV) production across North America, integrating revolutionary gigacasting technology.

Electrical Scope of Work:

  • High-Voltage Power Distribution: Upgraded incoming 27.6 KV redundant service feeds via 2x 5 MVA transformers
  • Distribution of 5000A switchboard to multiple 2000A distribution boards. All to support three 6,100-ton high-pressure gigacasting machines—among the largest in the world.
  • Lighting & Life Safety Systems: Installed energy-efficient LED lighting throughout the plant and implemented complete life safety systems, including emergency power, fire alarm, and egress lighting.
  • Power Monitoring and Controls: Deployed advanced metering and building automation tie-ins to allow Linamar real-time monitoring of energy usage and system performance.

The complex electrical systems ensures this facility remains a cornerstone in the North American EV supply chain—demonstrating our team's expertise in powering the next generation of industrial innovation.
