Temporary Power, Markham

Construction workers rely heavily on electrical power in order to use necessary tools, lighting and equipment. A lack of reliable power source could impact project deadlines and make it tough to complete the project on time. This is especially important for workers in both residential and commercial/industrial spaces. As a result, it is common to install a temporary power supply to give construction workers the electrical supply which they need.

The two most important pieces of equipment required for a temporary power supply system is a power pole, and a power panel. The electrical pole is typically placed underground, less than 70 feet from the job site. The power pole can either be connected to a generator or wired supply – this depends on the location of the job site and its proximity to a utility source. If the nearest utility source is close enough, then a wired supply is the optimal choice, otherwise a generator will be used. The next piece of equipment needed is a temporary power panel, which can either be metered or unmetered; a metered panel is limited in bandwidth while an unmetered panel is not.

The installation process will require a permit, which is why it’s important to work with a licensed electrical contractor who can obtain the permit on your behalf.
