Custom Industrial Electrical Enclosure Manufacturer in Canada
MSCP Heat Management Solutions manufactures custom CSA-approved industrial electrical enclosures, cabinets and electrical assemblies in Canada for Oil & Gas, Mining, Power Generation, Utilities, Chemical Processing and other heavy industrial applications.
Our primary manufacturing facility is in Sherwood Park, Alberta. MSCP supports both build-to-print manufacturing and in-house enclosure engineering, taking projects from drawings or electrical schematics through fabrication, electrical assembly, testing, shipment and assembling across all Canada.
Custom Electrical Enclosure Manufacturing
MSCP manufactures electrical enclosures and cabinets for industrial equipment, control systems, electrical distribution, instrumentation, heat tracing and other applications where standard off-the-shelf enclosures do not meet the project requirements.
Enclosures can be custom engineered to the required size, configuration, material, mounting arrangement and environmental conditions.
Depending on the project, MSCP can provide:
- Custom electrical enclosures and cabinets
- Control cabinets and electrical control enclosures
- Junction and termination enclosures
- Custom backplates and mounting assemblies
- Electrical panel enclosures
- Equipment and instrument enclosures
- Enclosures with integrated electrical heat tracing (EHT)
- PLC, RTU, VFD, SCADA Panels

Build-to-Print or Custom Enclosure Engineering
MSCP can manufacture directly from client-supplied drawings or develop the enclosure design from available project information.
For build-to-print projects, our manufacturing and engineering team can work from applicable CAD drawings, SolidWorks files, BIM information, PDFs, fabrication drawings and other approved documentation.
When a complete enclosure drawing is not available, MSCP can work from information such as:
- Electrical schematics
- Single-line diagrams
- Bill of materials
- Component dimensions
- Equipment layouts
- Site measurements
- Cable-entry requirements
- Mounting requirements
- Environmental conditions
- Client engineering specifications
MSCP engineering and manufacturing teams review the design for fabrication requirements, component clearances, mounting arrangements, cable entries, access and assembly before fabrication begins.
This gives project teams two straightforward paths:
Complete enclosure drawings → Build-to-print manufacturing
Schematics, equipment information or concept → Custom enclosure engineering
Custom Materials and Enclosure Fabrication
MSCP can fabricate custom electrical enclosures using the material specified for the application.
Material selection can include stainless steel, aluminum and other enclosure-grade materials, depending on the project design, environmental exposure, corrosion requirements and applicable specifications.
Construction can include:
- Custom doors and access panels
- Removable panels
- Backplates
- DIN rail systems
- Mounting plates
- Gland plates
- Cable-entry openings
- Structural frames
- Reinforcement
- Grounding and bonding provisions
- Custom brackets and supports
- Lifting and handling provisions where required
There is no standard enclosure size that limits the project. MSCP can fabricate the enclosure dimensions and configuration required by the equipment, installation and site conditions.
Fabrication, Welding and Industrial Coating
MSCP coordinates enclosure fabrication through its Canadian manufacturing operation.
Depending on the design, fabrication can include:
CNC cutting → Forming → Welding → Surface preparation → Coating → Assembly
Custom cutouts, mounting features, access openings, reinforcement and other fabrication details can be incorporated into the enclosure before electrical assembly.
Industrial coating systems can also be specified according to the project’s environment and corrosion-protection requirements. Surface preparation and coating inspection can be incorporated into the manufacturing quality process.
For projects with specific welding, coating, certification or inspection requirements, the applicable scope is established during engineering and project review.
Electrical Assembly and Integration
MSCP can combine enclosure fabrication with electrical assembly so the mechanical enclosure and internal electrical installation are developed as one coordinated package.
Electrical assembly can include:
- Backplates and DIN rails
- Terminal blocks
- Wiring ducts
- Circuit protection
- Control components
- PLC and instrumentation components
- Internal wiring
- Grounding and bonding
- Cable-entry systems
- Electrical heat tracing components
- Control and monitoring equipment
- Factory testing and inspection
Where project drawings and specifications require it, MSCP can take the enclosure from an empty fabricated shell through component installation, wiring, inspection and testing.
This reduces the number of separate manufacturing handoffs required before the enclosure reaches the field.
Electrical Heat Tracing Integration
For Canadian industrial applications exposed to low ambient temperatures, MSCP can integrate Electrical Heat Tracing (EHT) and thermal-management requirements into custom enclosure designs.
Depending on the application, the enclosure can incorporate:
- EHT cable systems
- Mineral-insulated (MI) heating components
- Self-regulating (SR) heat tracing
- Space-heating provisions
- Thermostatic or temperature-control components
- Internal insulation
- Thermal-management provisions
- Power and control connections
The appropriate heating method, insulation, controls and temperature requirements are determined from the project’s design basis and operating conditions.
This is particularly relevant for Oil & Gas, mining, utilities and remote Canadian installations where electrical and control equipment may need protection from low temperatures and changing environmental conditions.
CSA-Approved Industrial Enclosures for Canadian Environments
Industrial electrical enclosures may need to operate in environments involving moisture, snow, dust, vibration, temperature changes, UV exposure or corrosive atmospheres.
MSCP can engineer enclosure construction around the actual project environment rather than applying one standard configuration to every application.
Depending on the requirements, design considerations can include:
- Material selection
- Corrosion protection
- Gasket and sealing requirements
- Weather protection
- Drainage and ventilation
- Thermal management
- Cable and gland entries
- Mounting and structural requirements
- Access and maintenance requirements
- Hazardous-location requirements where applicable
Enclosure ratings, hazardous-location classifications and certification requirements are determined according to the specific project, applicable standards and certification scope.
Quality Control and Factory Testing
Quality requirements are established during engineering and manufacturing based on the project specification.
Depending on scope, inspection and testing can include:
- Drawing and design review
- CSA-Approved
- Material verification
- Dimensional inspection
- Weld inspection
- Coating inspection
- Electrical wiring inspection
- Grounding and bonding verification
- Point-to-point continuity testing
- Insulation resistance testing
- Component verification
- Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT)
- As-built documentation
Where a project requires specific third-party certification, inspection or testing, those requirements can be incorporated into the manufacturing plan.
This approach keeps the quality process connected to the actual project requirements rather than applying unsupported blanket certification claims to every enclosure.
