Emergency power supply system (EPSS) rentals are helpful in many situations, but here are three specific circumstances: any time commercial electricity is inaccessible, any time commercial electricity is hard to supply by regular means, and when a facility's emergency generator is offline for servicing, repair, retrofitting, or even replacement. In such instances, businesses and organizations choose emergency power supply services that offer EPSS rentals, such as ElecComm Power. 

In many cases, just a generator is needed to supply power. But in others, additional EPSS equipment like power distribution units and connector cables are also required. In these cases, ElecComm Power can help prospective renters carefully plan for their total power supply needs, including equipment rentals to aid generator performance.

Here is an example:
EPS was chosen by the municipality of Braintree, MA to provide a contingency power plan for the entire town while new construction was being performed to their electrical system.

EPS’s plan included 10 MW’s of portable generators along with (5) 480v step-up to 13.8kv transformers and all associated cabling. Equipment was tested and staged at a local lay down yard and could be mobilized within an hour of the initial call. ElecComm’s ability to provide the equipment and quick response time were the deciding factors in awarding this work.
