Engineering rigour
Every job is built on paper first — load schedules, single-line diagrams, cable sizing and protection coordination — so site crews work to drawings, not guesswork.
About
Transients Engineering Services
Over 20 years of full-stack, multidisciplinary engineering delivered in-house across Uganda — electrical, civil, structural and mechanical, under one accountable team.
One team, from first drawing to final commissioning
Transients Engineering Services began as a small electrical contracting outfit in Kampala and grew, project by project, into a multidisciplinary engineering company trusted on industrial sites across Uganda. From domestic installations we moved into 33 kV powerline construction, transformer and switchgear work, then into the civil, structural and mechanical scopes that those installations inevitably touch.
That growth was deliberate. Rather than sub-contract the disciplines around our core, we built them in-house — electrical, civil and structural, and mechanical — so that the engineers who scope a job also draw it, the crews who build it work to those same drawings, and the team that commissions it owns the result. On the HUSKY 1 line at Coca-Cola Beverages in Namanve, that meant designing the distribution, fabricating the containment and energising the panels without a single sub-contracted hand-off.
Today we deliver complete engineering packages — a 2.4 MWp rooftop array at Kakira Sugar Works, a 33 kV t-off at Masanafu, structural steel at Namanve — with one point of accountability from concept to handover. Single-team delivery is not a slogan for us; it is how the work gets built right the first time.
Why us
What we stand for
Single-team accountability
No sub-contracted hand-offs. The engineers who scope the work draw it, build it and commission it, so one team owns the outcome end to end.
Safety on site
Outage coordination, traffic management and controlled field welding — disciplined methods that protect crews and the public on live, built-up corridors.
On-time handover
We deliver to programme and hand over signed-off: drawings, test sheets and an as-built record, so plant teams inherit a system they can maintain.

Leadership
The engineers accountable for the work
-
Emmanuel Sekamatte
Managing Director
Sets the single-team delivery model and carries final accountability for every project handed over, from scope to commissioning.
-
Daniel Okello
Head of Electrical
Leads design and commissioning across LV/MV power, 33 kV line construction, switchgear, APFC and solar PV installations.
-
Grace Namutebi
Head of Civil & Structural
Owns structural steel, fabrication and civil works, detailing connections to BS EN 1993 before steel reaches site.
Certifications & safety
Built to standard, verified on record
We engineer to recognised international standards and prove it on paper. Structural frames are designed and connections detailed to BS EN 1993; shop and field welds are laid down by coded welders to AWS D1.1 and logged against an inspection register. Electrical installations follow IEC practice, and our site methods are OSHA-aligned — so every handover comes with the test sheets, weld and bolt records and as-built drawings that let a plant team maintain the work with confidence.
