Temporary power supply

A construction site has high power requirements and it is wrong to assume that you will access power instantly and setting it up will be easy. It might be that it is located in a rural location or there are several geographical challenges. The local electrical company may help set up power temporarily; but you will need the expertise of a trained electrician to power up your construction site.

Fixed wiring

Fixed wiring is essential for all the electrical activities necessary on the site. This includes ensuring all the vital spots of a construction site have electrical power to use the heavy-duty equipment. This means installing power cables, sockets, distribution boards, etc.

Electrical switchboards

A switchboard is an essential hub that is necessary to direct the electricity stream for the needs at the site. This will act as a source of power for the entire site with well-defined sections like the main power unit and that necessary for the distribution.

Circuit breakers

A construction site also requires basic safety measures to be implemented. An electric shock is one of the most common threats; this can be avoided by installing a circuit breaker in place. This type of system is designed to minimize the risk and protect those working with electrical devices.

Overhead solutions

Installing an overhead distribution is one of the most cost-effective solutions and is also preferred by professionals to provide temporary power to the working site.

Generators

Generators are a common sight in this type of zone. Its portable nature ensures you can power your electrical devices in the remotest places. However, setting it up is something that should be best left to the professionals.

Tips to find industrial electrician

  • Professional electricians are fully trained and have the necessary knowledge to meet the electrical demands at a construction site. However, every construction site is unique and it is essential to be aware of exactly what you need prior to contacting them. This makes it easier for you to explain your requirements and find a suitable electrical service.
  • Do your research prior to selecting one. There are many ways this can be done, either over the internet or by consulting friends or relatives. It is highly likely that some companies cut corners to get the job done. This might serve the purpose but can lead to expensive fines and causing harm to others. It is best to avoid such businesses.
  • Safety should always be a big concern while setting up temporary power systems.
  • Inquire about their experience and project estimates.
  • Confirm if they offer some type of guarantee and warranty.
  • Ensure you have a proposed timeframe for the project prior to hiring.
  • Check for appropriate licensing, insurance and credentials.
  • Always look for reviews from previous clients and ask for references.
