Transformers buyers serving Paris

We treat Kentucky as a single service area instead of a list of towns. That is why a single item in Paris is still worth quoting — it gets added to an existing run between Louisville, Lexington and Covington rather than priced as a dedicated trip.

Documentation travels with the job: a certificate of insurance naming your entity, a W-9, a signed purchase agreement itemizing each asset and its price, oil or PCB manifests where applicable, and weight tickets or a bill of lading for what leaves the Paris site.

Equipment

What we take out of Paris sites

Liquid-filled pad-mount and station class

Oil-filled pad-mount and pole-mount units, loop-feed and radial, unit substations with their primary switching and secondary sections, and station-class power transformers with tap changers, radiators and conservators. Oil is tested for PCB content before anything moves, and the manifests come with your paperwork.

Dry-type and cast coil

Ventilated dry-type and cast-coil units from 15 kVA through 5 MVA, including 480 V to 208 V step-downs, K-rated units specified for harmonic loads, and drive isolation transformers. Dry-types move easily, resell quickly and generally carry a strong number relative to their weight.

Kentucky specifics

Three industries drive Kentucky, and all three are electrically heavy. Automotive assembly at Louisville, Bowling Green and Georgetown runs large MCC and drive installations. Aluminum smelting in the western part of the state uses rectifier transformers and medium-voltage switchgear at a scale most manufacturers never touch. And the distilleries along the bourbon corridor have been expanding and re-powering continuously, which frees up the gear they replaced. The Ohio River corridor from Louisville to Ashland is a route our crews already run.

Common questions

Paris questions

Do you actually buy electrical equipment in Paris, or just broker it?

We buy it. Southeast Electrical Buyers is the purchaser of record — we fund the purchase, send our own crews to Paris to disconnect and load, and take title when the equipment leaves your dock. There is no third party behind us waiting to approve the price.

What is the smallest job you will take in Paris?

A single transformer, one switchgear section, a pallet of breakers or a few boxes of breakers is worth a call. Because we route crews across Kentucky continuously, small Paris pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.

How fast can you get to a Paris site?

Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Paris is a few business days for a straightforward removal and one to two weeks for a full plant scope that needs phasing, rigging plans or utility coordination.

Do we have to disconnect the equipment before you arrive?

No. We handle removal. Your electrician or the utility performs the final isolation and we verify it; from there our crews lock out, cut and cap cable at the gland, unbolt the sections, skate them out and load them. If the Paris room is still partly live we phase the work.

How do you handle transformer oil in Paris?

Oil is tested, drained and manifested through licensed handlers, and you receive the documentation with your paperwork. PCB-suspect units go under a separate waste profile. Nothing is left on your pad in Paris and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.

Transformers in Paris?

One call, one written offer, one crew. Payment before the trailer leaves.
