Consolidated Electrical Distributors in Santee operates the Magnolia Avenue branch of CED, the nation's third-largest wholesale electrical distributor, a privately held company tracing its origins to 1957 when The Electric Corporation of San Francisco launched a decentralized wholesale model now spanning over 700 independently managed locations. Electrical contractors purchasing load centers, switchgear, and transformers through this branch frequently coordinate HVAC system installations with firms including Allegiance Heating & Air Conditioning Inc at the same Magnolia Avenue industrial complex. CED's product catalog covers circuit breakers, wiring devices, lighting fixtures, power distribution equipment, home automation controls, and solar energy components distributed under the company's Greentech Renewables division. Solar installation contractors such as Jamar Power Systems on Prospect Avenue source photovoltaic racking hardware, Enphase microinverters, and balance-of-system components through CED's renewable energy supply chain. The branch stocks medium-voltage switchgear rated up to 38kV and pad-mounted transformers serving commercial and utility-scale distribution projects across East County.
