Multi-discipline engineering

About Harvtec

Harvtec brings electrical testing and installation, industrial engineering, maintenance, LEV support and compliance management together in Cornwall. Philip Harvey’s electrical and mechanical apprenticeship background connects practical fault finding and repair with the systems and records businesses need to keep work under control.

What Harvtec covers

Multi-discipline technical support

Qualifications backed by hands-on engineering

Our PAT testing combines PAT qualifications with full-scope electrical training. Harvtec is led by Philip Harvey, who served an electrical and mechanical apprenticeship. That broader grounding helps us understand the equipment, its working environment and the practical significance of a defect. You receive explained findings, useful records and a clear route to any separately agreed investigation or remedial work.

Industrial and domestic electrical work

Electrical installation, testing and fault finding for homes, premises and production equipment, including machinery control systems and motor drives.

Mechanical and machinery work

Mechanical support for equipment, repairs, maintenance, refurbishment, machinery diagnostics and site-based problem solving.

Compliance support

Help with inspection records, documentation, certificates and compliance workflows that need to stay organised.

Workshop and software services

Technical workshop support, small electrical preparation, controls, bench repair work and focused software systems for jobs that cross over between hands-on work, records and business processes.

One business, a dedicated testing brand

Safe Wiring Cornwall Powered by Harvtec is our dedicated EICR, PAT and electrical-testing compliance brand. Harvtec provides the wider electrical, engineering, workshop, compliance and software services. Both are operated by Philip Harvey trading as Harvtec.

Established locally, covering West Cornwall

Approach

How Harvtec works

Diagnose before replacing

Where a machine, control or site system is misbehaving, Harvtec looks for the practical cause before jumping to replacement.

Choose the right discipline mix

Electrical, mechanical, compliance, workshop and software input can be combined where the job needs it.

Keep the next step clear

The aim is practical progress: a repair, record, action list, prototype, system or agreed route forward.

Principles

What keeps the work practical

Plain communication

Harvtec keeps the conversation focused on the site, equipment, record or system that needs attention.

Useful records

Where documentation matters, the goal is to make records easier to understand and use later.

Practical options

The work is shaped around sensible next steps rather than overcomplicating a job before it has been understood.
