Discuss Your ProjectSpecialised Refrigeration Control Engineering
Refrigeration systems demand specialised electrical expertise. For over four decades, we've been designing control systems, wiring plants, and maintaining critical cold storage infrastructure for food processors, cold storage facilities, and industrial refrigeration applications across the UK.
Refrigeration Systems
Expert electrical design and wiring for blast freezers, cold storage rooms, process cooling, and complex multi-zone refrigeration plants.
Temperature Control
Precise control systems that maintain exact temperatures, integrate with monitoring systems, and optimise energy efficiency.
Alarm Systems
Critical temperature alarm systems with SMS and email alerts to protect your products from temperature excursions and equipment failures.
Regulatory Compliance
Complete electrical compliance for food safety regulations and requirements for temperature logging and audit trails.
The Critical Risks of Refrigeration System Failures
Temperature control failures can destroy products and entire businesses overnight
Product Spoilage
Temperature excursions can destroy entire cold stores of product, resulting in hundreds of thousands in write-offs and lost revenue.
Food Safety Compliance
Failure to maintain proper temperatures and records can result in FSA enforcement, product recalls, and prosecution under food safety law.
System Inefficiency
Poorly designed or maintained refrigeration systems waste enormous amounts of energy, creating high running costs and environmental impact.
Inadequate Monitoring
Without proper alarm systems and temperature logging, problems go undetected until products are already damaged and compliance is compromised.

Trusted by operations and engineering leaders across the UK
"I have worked with the team at JBB Electrical on a wide range of projects and reactive works for over 15 years. They consistently complete jobs to an excellent standard and are always a pleasure to deal with. Their technical knowledge is a huge benefit to both myself and my customers, and nothing is ever too much trouble for the team. They regularly go above and beyond, and I would not hesitate to recommend JBB Electrical"
Ian Ross
Service Manager, EJM
"The team at JBB Electrical have been integral to the implementation of the proof-of-concept large scale energy‑sharing district heating & cooling network at SmartParc’s food production campus in Derby. JBB’s wealth of knowledge and experience in industrial controls and automation helped integrate the multiple systems and platforms required for seamless control and monitoring of the energy centre plant and park network. JBB have also secured and successfully delivered the electrical subcontract works associated with the industrial cooling installations for all tenants on the park thus far. All under competitive tender and ambitious installation programmes. All projects have been completed on time, within budget and to the highest quality standards. I can highly recommend JBB as partner of choice for complex industrial electrical and automation projects."
