Mining Controls (MCI) is a custom job shop situated on a 16 acre site near Beckley, WV. Our 56,000 square foot facility includes 45,000 square feet of manufacturing space and 11,000 square feet for administrative and technical staff. Also, construction is underway to expand our manufacturing facility to 75,000 square feet. Our expansion project is due to be completed by October 2012. Our new, expanded facility will allow us to serve you better with improved shipping times.

Our manufacturing and service staff encompasses certified welders, electricians, transformer winders and assemblers, painters, explosion proof lighting and enclosure assemblers, and field service/test personnel. Included in the MCI engineering staff are electrical engineers and mechanical/electrical draftsmen that currently use Autocad 2009.

Gilbert Electrical Systems (GES) has been a part of MCI for over twenty years. The acquisition of GES in 1989 provided MCI instant access to the industrial and utility markets for capacitor banks and harmonic filtering banks, primary products of GES.

The acquisition in 1994 of K & M Electrical Products expanded the MCI product line to include empty electrical enclosures then referred to in the industry as transclosures. GES does business with a diverse range of utility and industrial customers. Utilities we serve range from small cooperatives to large investor-owned electric and gas utilities. Our industrial customers typically are large manufacturers and/or big consumers of electricity interested in lowering their electrical costs through power factor correction.
