As the sun sets over the sparkling canals of Fort Lauderdale, the city comes alive with a dazzling display of light and energy. From the twinkling lights of Las Olas Boulevard to the neon signs illuminating family-owned businesses, the electrical grid that powers this coastal metropolis is the lifeblood that keeps the city thriving.
But behind the scenes, a dedicated team of electricians work tirelessly to ensure that every circuit, every outlet, and every light fixture is operating at peak performance. These unsung heroes are the backbone of Fort Lauderdale’s electrical infrastructure, committed to delivering safe, reliable, and innovative power solutions to residents and businesses alike.
The Powercom Difference: Crafting Customized Electrical Experiences
In the heart of Pompano Beach, just a stone’s throw away from the sandy beaches of Fort Lauderdale, stands the headquarters of Powercom LLC, a family-owned electrical contracting company that has been lighting up the city for over 45 years.
“Our mission has always been to provide the highest level of safety and quality in everything we do,” says Tommy Hernandez, Powercom’s veteran electrician and second-generation owner. “We’re not just wiring homes and businesses – we’re crafting customized electrical experiences that enhance the way people live and work.”
Hernandez’s passion for the trade is palpable as he walks me through Powercom’s state-of-the-art facility, showcasing the latest in electrical innovation. “We’re constantly researching new technologies and techniques to stay ahead of the curve,” he explains, “because our clients deserve the best.”
One area where Powercom has truly shined is in their energy-efficient solutions. “Fort Lauderdale’s tropical climate puts a lot of strain on the electrical grid, especially during the hot summer months,” Hernandez notes. “That’s why we work closely with our clients to identify ways to maximize their energy efficiency, whether it’s through LED lighting retrofits, smart home automation, or solar power integration.”
Powercom has built a reputation for tackling even the most complex electrical projects with unwavering precision and expertise. “We have a team of highly trained, vetted electricians who are handpicked for their attention to detail and ability to work in a wide range of residential and commercial settings,” Hernandez explains. “From custom home remodels to large-scale commercial renovations, there’s no job too big or too small for us.”
Hypower: Powering Fort Lauderdale’s Future with Innovation and Expertise
While Powercom might be the hometown hero, there’s another electrical powerhouse making waves in Fort Lauderdale – Hypower. This full-service electrical contractor has been a driving force in the city’s construction and development scene for over three decades, leaving an indelible mark on the local landscape.
“Hypower is recognized as one of Florida’s foremost electrical construction contractors, and for good reason,” says Javier Gonzalez, the company’s project manager. “We combine safety, quality, and efficiency to deliver turnkey solutions that exceed our clients’ expectations.”
One of Hypower’s key differentiators is their commitment to innovative technology. “We’ve been at the forefront of Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) for over a decade,” Gonzalez explains. “By integrating cutting-edge software and modeling tools into our process, we’re able to create more accurate construction documents, minimize design conflicts, and ultimately save our clients time and money.”
This technological edge has proven particularly valuable in Hypower’s work on some of Fort Lauderdale’s most ambitious projects. “We recently completed a major electrical overhaul at the Broward County Convention Center, integrating state-of-the-art systems that have transformed the facility’s energy efficiency and functionality,” Gonzalez proudly shares. “And that’s just one example of how we’re helping to shape the future of this dynamic city.”
But Hypower’s impact extends far beyond the boundaries of Fort Lauderdale. “We’ve worked on projects throughout Florida and across the country, from healthcare facilities to military bases,” Gonzalez notes. “Our team has the expertise and resources to tackle any electrical challenge, no matter the scale or complexity.”

Whether it’s Powercom’s focus on energy efficiency and custom-tailored solutions or Hypower’s pioneering approach to construction technology, these companies are setting new standards for what it means to be an electrical contractor in the 21st century.
“It’s not just about wiring and circuits,” Hernandez reflects. “It’s about creating an experience – one that makes people’s lives easier, safer, and more connected. That’s what drives us every single day.”
And as Fort Lauderdale continues to grow and evolve, these electricians will be there, working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that the city’s vibrant energy never dims.
