About CF Electrical
From the electrical trade to strata planning
CF Electrical Services Ltd. is a strata electrical consulting firm based in Vancouver, British Columbia. We deliver Electrical Planning Reports, EV Ready Plans, and project management for strata electrification projects across British Columbia — with full technical accuracy, written in plain language your council can actually use.
Founder
Who you're dealing with
From the job site to the planning desk
Chris started in the electrical trade and spent years doing installation and service work. Over that time, he noticed something: strata managers were constantly struggling with electrical planning — they needed reports, they needed expertise, but they didn't need another vendor adding to their workload.
That's what led to CF Electrical Services. The idea was simple: bring the same attention to detail and reliability that Chris brought to every job site, but apply it to the planning and consulting side. Handle the complexity. Deliver accurate work. Make it easy for the people managing these buildings.
Today, CF Electrical Services is focused on exactly that. We're not trying to be everything to everyone. We do strata electrical consulting and we do it well — Electrical Planning Reports, EV Ready Plans, and project management for strata electrification projects, for BC strata corporations.
Our team
The team behind your reports
Chris founded CF Electrical Services and still sets the standard every report is held to. He pairs his hands-on electrical experience with the qualified specialists each engagement calls on — so the work that reaches your council reflects a current, working command of BC strata electrical planning: the capacity analysis, the utility data, the code, the rebate programs, and the plain-language write-up a council can actually use.
That means years in the BC electrical industry behind every file, plus a current command of the Strata Property Act requirements and BC Hydro's and FortisBC's rebate programs. Whatever your building type, you get one accountable point of contact on your building, from the first call to the final report.
Our difference
Reports written for the people who pay for them
Here is something we kept running into. A strata corporation pays for a technical report out of its own funds — an Electrical Planning Report — and what lands on the council's desk is dense and technical. Tables, code citations, and jargon are hard going for the owners and council members who actually have to read the report, budget from it, and explain it to the rest of the building. The report can be technically correct and still difficult for the people it was prepared for to use.
We think that's backwards. The report is your strata's document — paid for from strata funds, filed in your permanent records, and meant to be read by councils, owners, and prospective purchasers. BC's regulations spell out what each report must contain, but not that it has to be readable by the people receiving it. Compliance and clarity are two different things, and the regulation only requires the first.
That gap is where we built our practice. Every report we produce carries full technical accuracy and is written in plain language a non-technical council can understand and act on. The same technical rigour underneath; a document you can actually use on top. You should not need a technical background to govern your own building, and with our reports you won't.
More on this for councils: why EPR quality varies so widely from one provider to the next, and how to read and act on a report that is, in every sense, yours.
Scope
What we do — and how we work
What we do
CF Electrical Services is a strata electrical consulting firm. Three core services: Electrical Planning Reports (mandatory under BC strata law), EV Ready Plans (the route to BC Hydro EV charging rebates), and project management for strata electrification projects — EV charging, heat pumps, and other large retrofits.
How we work
We're your strata's technical planner and project manager. When an electrification project moves ahead, we write the scope, gather comparable quotes from licensed contractors, coordinate the rebates, and manage schedule, budget, and communication on your behalf — one point of contact from planning through completion.

Reviews
What strata councils and managers say
"Our Strata, a small townhouse complex in East Vancouver, had a great experience with CF Electrical. They prepared a helpful Electrical Planning report at a very reasonable price. The entire process was straightforward and seamless. We would highly recommend."
"We selected CF Electrical from three providers due to their excellent communication. They answered (and anticipated) all our questions before we'd even heard back with a quote from the third potential provider. They completed an EPR quickly and comprehensively, at a fair price. [...] The more we learned about CF Electrical and its founder, the more we appreciated their approach. Highly recommended!"
"CF Electrical Services responded promptly to my request for proposals for the Electrical Planning Reports and EV Ready Plans on the buildings I manage, and completed every report on time. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and efficiency throughout the process helped move these projects forward smoothly — excellent service and support."
"The process of providing pre-visit documentation was made very easy and the site visit was arranged in a timely manner. [...] At every step CF Electrical was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend them for their exceptional service."
"Great service. CF Electrical provided our condo building owners with an Electrical Planning Report and an EV Ready Plan to help us with long-term planning. Chris was easy to work with and provided a thorough presentation to all owners at the completion of the project. We can highly recommend CF Electrical Services for their report writing."
"Prompt, honest service, highly recommend"

Electrical Planning Report (EPR)
Mandatory under BC strata law. Built on a property assessment and twelve months of consumption data, and written to be read by the council.
Learn more02EV Ready Plan (EVRP)
The route to BC Hydro's plan rebate, up to 75% of the plan's cost to a $3,000 maximum, and the prerequisite for the program's later installation rebates.
Learn more03Electrification Project Management
Customized consulting for the projects a plan leads to: EV charging rollouts, heat pump conversions, service upgrades and large retrofits. We manage the project on your strata's behalf; licensed contractors carry out the installation.
Learn moreEV Ready Plan
Add an EV Ready Plan to your report and get up to $3,000 back from BC Hydro.
Most stratas receive an owner's EV charging request sooner or later. An EV Ready Plan prepares the building for it, and the BC Hydro rebate covers up to $3,000 of the plan itself. Report and plan together also come with LivingEPR™, our interactive Living Report, an online version of your report your council can return to.
