A Short Guide To Get Builders Temporary Power For Constructions Site
Providing temporary power to a construction site is a complex process. After scrutinizing the various utilities and approving the quote, temporary utility poles need to be installed, permit and inspected. Be prepared for the following steps to power your site quickly-
1. Contact a temporary power company- The initial step is to contact different temporary power companies you're considering. Be prepared to produce all the data that you need to answer the following questions such as-
- How much power do you need?
- When do you need power?
- Do you have architectural drawings and outline layouts for your project?
- When can I schedule a site visit?
2. Site layout visit- You must schedule a site visit with the temporary site power company’s salesperson after the initial contact. During this visit, the builders’ temporary power company will assess the following-
- What you are building
- If there is a trailer and its size
- Period of work
- Available utility sources
- Source location
- Places that require power around the site
- If you have special equipment such as tower cranes, man lifts, dehydration pumps and other 480-volt power demands
The salesperson then designs the layout of the job and maps and plot your construction site at your input. They put together the layout by keeping all the safety equations in mind.
3. Estimate- When the company designs the layout of your work, they make suggestions and quotes for you. This includes-
- Approved layout and design map
- List of required equipment
- Exclusion of backhoes for hard digs, ruin removal, blueprints, etc.
- Price
Now that you have this suggestion, you can review the various quotes you have received and approve your favourite quote. The temporary power company can then begin the process of installing a temporary power system.
4. Municipal inspection and utility connection- Ater a temporary site power is installed, there is one more thing that is left to do. City, county, or other permitting authorities should inspect layouts, equipment, and connections to ensure that everything is code compliant. If the system passes the inspection, the utility company will be notified. The utility company then installs the glass on the meter and schedules the final connection between the transformer and the meter.
5. Energized system maintenance and final pickup- Many things can happen during the construction process. Layout changes, equipment may be damaged in the field, theft or vandalism may occur, and additional equipment may be required. Temporary power supplier company should visit the site consistently to make sure that everything is running appropriately and to keep the build plan on schedule. At last, when everything is finished and the project is nearing completion, the temporary site power company will be notified to come back and remove the system.
