How are Power Distribution Centers set up?
A power cord (usually 6 gauge) is run from a large generator or power pole to one or a series of Distribution Centers. Distribution Centers typically have a 50 amp feed through receptacle that allow two or three Distribution Centers to be run in a series up to 400' from the power source. Other than wiring into the power source, the system does not need to be set up by an electrician.
Power Distribution Carts
These heavy duty 3 phase power distribution carts are designed to breakdown 3 Phase 120/208V power into 280V three phase, 208V single phase and/or 125V single phase power. The power supply input may be a direct wire feed, 100 amp Pin and sleeve, or Cam type device. Can
be powered by a large generator or another large power source. This panel may be designed to act as the feeder for smaller
type Distribution Centers or wired for powering large equipment. The carts are made of heavy gauge steel and provides an easy means of transportation as well as protection for the enclosure.
Enclosures are built of 16 gauge stainless steel. Since these are built
to order, ask your Colony representative for a complete listing of the various con gurations available. We can also customize a con guration to your speci cations.
All of our Power Distribution Carts and Power Boxes are UL® approved.
