Ryan Sales: Medium Voltage Equipment Reps Since 1984

How Ryan Sales started

Ryan Sales began in 1984, when Jack and Piper Ryan founded the company to sell G&W Electric in Texas. Jack had spent twelve years at G&W Electric in product development, marketing management and sales management, and the company's owner encouraged the couple to give the fast-growing Texas market a dedicated sales effort. Piper served as president and Jack led business development.

Ryan Sales is a certified women-owned business (WBENC Women's Business Enterprise), which can help utilities, EPCs and data center owners meet supplier diversity goals when they buy through us.

More than 40 years later, the company is still family-run. Jack and Piper's two sons, both engineers, are part of the management team, and the firm has grown from one product line into a group of manufacturers covering most of the medium voltage system.

What a manufacturers' rep does

A manufacturers' rep is the local, independent sales and applications team for a group of equipment makers. The manufacturer designs and builds the equipment; we help you pick the right ratings, get accurate quotes and lead times, and keep the project moving with the factory.

For engineers, that means a technical contact who knows the product lines and can get factory answers quickly. For buyers and procurement teams, it means one local point of contact for several manufacturers, with purchase orders placed directly with the factory. You work with a person who knows your system and your region rather than a general sales desk in another state.

Lines we represent

• G&W Electric: padmount and underground switchgear, reclosers, current-limiting protectors, cable accessories, sensors and distribution automation.
• JST Power Equipment: gas-insulated and metal-clad switchgear, dry type, pad mount and power transformers, packaged substations and battery energy storage.
• ARP: silicone polymer insulators and polymer fuse cutouts.
• Lindsey Systems: voltage and current sensors, transmission line monitoring and line rating.
• Richards MFG: separable connectors, splices, secondary network products and pole line hardware.

How we work

• Application engineering. We help size ratings, match fault levels and compare equipment options before your one-line or bid package is final.
• Factory access. We connect your engineers with the manufacturers' application, production and service teams when a question needs the factory.
• Quotes and lead times. We turn your spec or equipment list into factory quotes and get current lead-time answers so your schedule rests on real dates.
• Startup support. We stay involved through submittals, delivery, installation questions and energization, and we coordinate field service when you need it.

Our team and territory

Our sales executives each cover a region of Texas and Oklahoma: the Gulf Coast, Central and South Texas, North Texas and Oklahoma, and West Texas, with an inside sales team in Magnolia, Texas. On data center projects, we work with developers, EPCs and electrical engineers nationwide.
