About LC Engineering Services Pte. Ltd. (LEW Services)

LC Engineering Services (LCES), originally established in 2007 as LC Electrical Consultants, is a Singapore-based electrical engineering firm serving both commercial and industrial clients. The company is BizSafe (Star) certified and holds ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 certification, reflecting a management system built around quality and workplace safety.

With more than 20 years of combined track record across the industry, LCES's engineering teams deliver solutions for critical installations including commercial offices, retail malls, data centres, wafer fabs, hospitals, financial centres, and oil and gas plants. The management team is led by Er. Benny Cheong W.K. and Er. Lin Guo Dong, both Registered Electrical Professional Engineers and EMA Licensed Electrical Workers with about two decades of post-graduate industry experience apiece.

The company's core offering spans Licensed Electrical Worker (LEW) and Professional Engineer services, renewal of EMA Electrical Installation Licenses (400V, 22kV, 66kV), electrical consultancy and design, annual shutdown servicing of switchboards, diagnostic testing and measurement, and installation of electrical switchboards and transformers. LEW services include 24-hour standby for emergency power outages and troubleshooting, routine inspections using mobile devices with online data analysis, and liaison with SP Power Grids, EMA and other authorities on energisation and supply matters.

LCES has worked on a wide range of major Singapore projects, from MRT lines and data centres to semiconductor fabs, hospitals, and aerospace facilities, giving them experience across both large-scale and smaller installations.

LC Engineering Services: 20 Years of Electrical Engineering for Singapore's Critical Infrastructure

LC Engineering Services (LCES) traces its roots back to 2007, when it was founded as LC Electrical Consultants. What began as an electrical consultancy has grown into a full-service engineering company trusted with some of Singapore's most demanding installations — from MRT lines and data centres to semiconductor fabs and hospitals.

A Foundation in Licensing and Safety

LCES is BizSafe (Star) certified and holds ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 certification, underscoring its commitment to quality management and workplace safety. At the heart of the business are its Licensed Electrical Workers (LEW) — professionals certified by Singapore's Energy Market Authority (EMA) to carry out and supervise electrical work before power supply can be turned on. LCES handles the full lifecycle of LEW work: applying for and renewing Electrical Installation Licenses across 400V, 22kV and 66kV systems, conducting routine inspections with mobile devices and online data analysis, and liaising directly with SP Power Grids, EMA and other authorities on energisation and supply matters.

One of the more distinctive parts of the offering is round-the-clock coverage. The company runs a 24-hour standby service for emergency situations — power outages, troubleshooting, and eliminating malfunctions — backed by a dedicated service van kept on permanent standby.

Maintenance, Testing and Installation

Beyond licensing, LCES carries out annual shutdown servicing of HV and LV switchboards, transformers and motor panels. Its diagnostic capabilities are extensive: measurement of load and energy profiles, power quality and harmonic disturbance testing, partial discharge and ultrasound testing on HT switchgear, infra-red thermography scanning on LV switchboards, and DGA oil testing on transformers to IEC standard. On the commissioning side, the team handles protection relay injection testing, high voltage testing, VLF cable testing and equipment functional testing, along with installation of HT/LT switchboards, transformers and power cables.

Design and Consultancy

For clients earlier in a project's life, LCES also offers mechanical and electrical consultancy — feasibility studies, cost estimation, tender specification and briefing, contract award support, and inspection through to commissioning and certification. Design work covers HT/LT distribution systems, co-generation connections, load flow analysis, short circuit studies, harmonic analysis, transient stability calculations, earthing systems, uninterrupted power supply, lightning protection, building automation, and applications for contestability and Demand Aggregation Scheme (DAS) arrangements. The mechanical side extends to air-conditioning, ventilation, fire protection, building automation, and plumbing and sanitary systems.

A Track Record Across Critical Sectors

LCES's project list reads like a cross-section of Singapore's essential infrastructure: the Thomson East Coast MRT Line, Singapore Telecommunications exchanges and data centres, Marina One, Globalfoundries and other semiconductor fabs, a Microsoft data centre, Changi City Point, Fusionopolis, Rolls-Royce's Singapore facility, Changi Airport Terminal 4, MSD's pharmaceutical plants, Jurong Rock Cavern, Jurong Shipyards, Farrer Park Hospital, and ST Aerospace. Across these projects the company has provided everything from LEW and design consultancy through to testing, commissioning and ongoing annual servicing.

Leadership

The company is led by Er. Benny Cheong W.K. and Er. Lin Guo Dong, both Registered Electrical Professional Engineers and EMA Licensed Electrical Workers with roughly 20 years of industry experience each, spanning M&E consultancies, switchboard and transformer manufacturing, and contracting work on mission-critical sites including data centres, semiconductor fabs, hospitals and rail traction systems.

LCES is based at 180 Paya Lebar Road, Singapore, and can be reached by phone on weekdays or by email for enquiries about its services.
