Sector
Buying out of utilities & substations
The typical job
A cooperative or municipal utility retires a distribution substation, standardizes on a new breaker line and needs the old inventory gone, or clears a yard of pad-mount transformers and reclaimed cable. Utility work is documentation-heavy and we operate accordingly.
What matters to a utility
Environmental documentation, safe clearance procedures, and a buyer who can take the whole lot instead of cherry-picking. We test and manifest oil, provide recycling documentation, work under your clearance and grounding procedures, and take the unattractive items along with the good ones.
What we usually buy here
Power and pad-mount transformers, oil and vacuum circuit breakers, air switches and disconnects, metal-clad switchgear, reclaimed URD and primary cable, CTs, PTs, arresters, relay panels, structures and rigid bus.

We buy low- and medium-voltage switchgear line-ups out of live plants, substations and buildings scheduled for demolition — metal-clad, metal-enclosed, drawout and fixed-mount.
480 V – 38 kV, up to 5,000 AGenerators
Diesel and natural-gas gensets from 100 kW through 3 MW — enclosed, open-skid, trailer-mounted and sub-base tank units, with or without their transfer switches.
100 kW – 3 MW diesel and gasTransformers
Pad-mount, dry-type, cast-coil, unit substation and liquid-filled power transformers from 75 kVA through 50 MVA, including units still energized on the pad.
75 kVA – 50 MVAPanelboards & Switchboards
Panelboards, switchboards, distribution panels, safety switches and disconnects — loaded with breakers or empty, one panel or a whole building's worth.
100 A – 4,000 AWire & Cable
Surplus and reclaimed copper and aluminum wire and cable — full spools, partial spools, off-spool coils and cable pulled out of cancelled jobs.
#12 AWG – 1,000 MCMCircuit Breakers
Molded-case, insulated-case, low-voltage power and medium-voltage vacuum and air-magnetic breakers — single units, pallets and full sets pulled from a line-up.
15 A – 6,000 A framesMotor Control Centers
Complete MCC line-ups, individual vertical sections, starter buckets and VFD sections — low voltage and medium voltage, any generation.
MCC line-ups, buckets, VFD sectionsSubstations
