Built for Cayman Conditions

Electrical systems in the Cayman Islands operate under conditions that demand more than standard solutions.

Unstable grid supply, hurricane exposure, salt-air corrosion, high humidity, and strict inspection requirements all place added strain on electrical infrastructure.

 

Systems that are not designed with these realities in mind are more likely to fail when they are needed most.

With decades of local experience, Britthay designs and installs electrical systems specifically for Cayman’s environment, accounting for resilience, compliance, and long-term performance from the outset.

This approach reduces downtime, prevents premature failure, and ensures systems continue to perform under real-world conditions, not just in theory.

What We Do

Britthay delivers full-scope electrical solutions designed for safety, compliance, and long-term reliability across residential, commercial, and specialist environments.

  • Complete electrical installations for residential, commercial, and light-industrial projects, delivered to Cayman codes and standards.

  • Design, supply, installation, and servicing of standby generator systems built for power continuity during outages and storms.

  • UPS solutions that protect critical equipment and operations from power interruptions and voltage instability.

  • Integrated control and monitoring systems that improve efficiency, visibility, and operational performance across facilities.

  • Structured data, communications, and low-voltage systems installed for reliability, scalability, and future growth.

  • Code-compliant fire detection and alarm systems designed to meet safety, insurance, and regulatory requirements.

  • Intelligent lighting and automation solutions that enhance control, efficiency, and occupant experience.

  • Early-stage electrical planning, design input, and technical guidance to reduce risk, rework, and lifecycle costs.

OUR STORY

More than Electricians, Part of Cayman's Story

hyatt project britthay completed

1988 | THE MEETING

Two childhood friends Kenny and Keith reunited across the ocean in the Cayman Islands by working on the same project as electricians. They worked hard, conquered every challenge that came their way, and quickly made a good name for themself on this quiet Caribbean Island.

1993 | THE BEGINNINGS

A few years later, the two friends opened their own business after a successful project together and named it Hay Electric, Ltd. They provided top-notch electrical services and continued to build a reputation for reliability and quality. Their friendship and expertise made them a popular choice among customers, and the business thrived. 

Hurricane Ivan aftermath

2004 | THE DISASTER

On September 11th –12th 2004, Hurricane Ivan devastated the Cayman Islands. Hay Electric Ltd just like everyone lost it all but persevered, kept its doors open, and looked to help the community in rebuilding.

2004 | THE EXPANSION

Kenny, then the director of Hay Electric Ltd had the vision but knew that his island home had limited resources to tackle the monumental task of rebuilding. And against all the odds, Kenny ran into Ed in an internet chat, Ed was the president of Brittashan Enterprises Corp, an electrical contractor out of the USA. Ken and Ed had never met but of like minds and similar work ethics, an instantaneous partnership was formed, and a new name was born Britt-Hay.

TODAY

Britthay Electric continued to thrive over the last 3 decades, we even hired a few more employees (99) and expanded the business. Britthay Electric became a legacy and became known for its reliability and expertise. 

We are grateful for the opportunity to serve our community and for the friendships that we developed along the way.
 

Thank you for your business!
