Half of a 17-story student housing complex lost power after a major busway failure.

Matching replacement busway was located within 15 minutes.

Power was restored within approximately 20 hours.

When a facility is down, the question isn't always:

"What's the lead time?"

Sometimes it's:

"Who has the right equipment available right now?"

This is what a 4,000-amp distribution lineup looks like before it all goes back together.

This Eaton lineup is being configured in the EMSCO shop for a specific customer application, including a 4000A main breaker and feeder breakers ranging from 60A to 1200A.

And like many real-world projects, the requirements changed while the job was underway.

That’s part of the work that happens after the equipment is sold — and before it leaves our shop. The equipment still has to be configured, checked, tested, and prepared to meet the customer’s requirements.

We broke down this project and some of the specifications that matter when configuring a large electrical distribution lineup:

When a fire at Skyline Tower in St. Paul left hundreds of residents displaced and power disrupted, NAC Mechanical & Electrical Services partnered with EMSCO to source the temporary power equipment required to restore service to the building.

We supplied a Square D 3000A MLO panel, along with (3) 800A feeds and (1) 1200A feed, forming the foundation of a temporary power restoration system that will support essential building operations while long-term repairs are underway.

At EMSCO, we take pride in supporting contractors, facility managers, and electrical professionals who respond when disaster strikes. From temporary power setups to large-scale restorations, we help you get operations up and running fast. Backed by over 75 years of industry expertise and one of the largest inventories of reconditioned electrical equipment in the country, EMSCO delivers when speed and reliability matter most.

Find. Fix. Fast.
