About Capital Electric
Over 45 years ago, Capital Electric began as an idea in the Harpster family garage, built on a foundation of traditional values and a commitment to fully personalized service. While a lot has changed since 1978, our dedication to these core principles remains unchanged.
As the industry has evolved, we’ve stayed at the forefront, ensuring our customers always have what they need to succeed. Today, we’re proud to be a family-owned, local wholesale distributor of industrial, electrical, and network/datacom products, serving a wide range of industries with certified expertise and innovative solutions.
