Healthcare electrical contractor for hospitals and clinics
Tapps Electric builds electrical systems for hospitals, emergency departments, imaging suites and outpatient clinics. Our healthcare work includes the Virginia Mason Franciscan Health freestanding emergency department in Port Orchard, St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma and a CT renovation for VA Puget Sound.
Healthcare electrical work is different. Essential electrical systems, patient care area grounding, isolated power and infection control all change how the job is planned and installed. We bring crews who have done it before.

Working inside an occupied hospital
When the building is treating patients, every shutdown and every ceiling tile matters. We plan outages with facility engineering, follow infection control risk assessment requirements, keep work areas contained and schedule around clinical operations. The work gets done without the hospital having to stop.
Imaging and equipment power
Imaging suites come with vendor power requirements that have to be met exactly. We coordinate with the equipment vendor drawings, install dedicated feeders and disconnects, and support the vendor through startup.
Yes. Our occupied hospital experience includes St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma and renovation work for VA Puget Sound, along with clinic projects for CommonSpirit, MultiCare and Optum.
Do you install essential electrical systems and generators?
Yes. We install generators, transfer switches and the life safety, critical and equipment branch distribution that healthcare facilities require.
Can you follow infection control requirements?
Yes. Our crews work under infection control risk assessment plans, including containment, negative air and clean work practices set by the facility.
