To whom it may concern;

Since 1990 Canelec Manufacturing has provided various services from supplying refurbished electrical equipment, manufacturing custom equipment, rebuilding various mine power centres, and providing installations such as an overhead power line and complete electrics for a surface rockfill system.

Expedition of equipment and materials was always in a very timely method and the workmanship was always very acceptable and met with all requirements of our specifications and any governing authorities. In many cases the final product exceeded expectation.

We still involve Canelec in custom manufacture of equipments such as ground fault/ground check monitoring panels for our underground electric mobile equipment and we do so confidently.

Canelec definitely shows a competitive edge with other manufactures in the industry and I would not hesitate to recommend their services to any other interested party with confidence that satisfaction would result.

If you have any questions in respect to Canelec and their reliability please do not hesitate to contact me.

They have both expressed that they will deal with us for any future requirements.
