All too often, someone will need custom distribution equipment and is unable to find what they need to get the job done. Well, if you find yourself in the same boat, you’re in luck because we specialize in custom distribution equipment! Our team has spent years designing custom equipment and establishing ourselves as one of the most trusted manufacturers in the industry. Every piece of our equipment is made by hand in our facilities to ensure only the best quality for our distributors. With simple, cost-effective, and safe designs, our commitment to quality can be seen in everything that we do.
Even though we offer a wide range of configurations for our equipment, we know that not all projects are the same. We’re 100% dedicated to understanding the unique requirements of our distributors. Our equipment is purposefully designed to solve problems by covering gaps in the market. In this article, we will shine the spotlight on some of our most unforgettable custom builds.
Custom 2000 & 2500A Generator Docking Stations
Our Generator Connection Box serves as the link between a generator and downstream equipment. By bridging the gap between utility and backup power during a power outage, a Generator Docking Station helps to continue operations without missing a beat. They effortlessly connect to a portable power source and pair with a Transfer Switch to support steady power distribution. Hospitals, airports, and data centers commonly rely on docking stations to make sure that they can sustain critical functions even in emergency situations.
Earlier this Summer, we built (2) custom Generator Docking Stations rated for 2000 and 2500 amps rated at 277/480V. Both units include a Kirk-Key interlocked Circuit Breaker and alarm system. We also mounted male 45-degree, threaded post Camlocks inside the unit and included cap & lanyard Camlock Covers to protect the connectors while not in use.

600A Non-Fusible Custom Quick Connection Switch
In February of 2023, we had the opportunity to build a custom Quick Connection Switch (QCS) with Camlocks for a local distributor. When sketching the design concepts for our QCS, we made sure that it would live up to its name by including features that provide convenience. It’s designed to condense the otherwise time-consuming installation process so that installers can focus their time on more important tasks.
This particular Custom Quick Connection Switch was designed to handle up to 600 amps and 480 volts. This switch is a non-fusible switch with 3 poles, 3 wires, and a ground. At the bottom of the unit, we installed 2 Color-Coded Camlock Panels to include a total of 16 female, 90-degree Camlocks. With attention to detail, we labeled each row of Camlocks to simplify identification while connecting to power.
When creating the blueprint for this QCS, our design process was centered around making something that was easy to use and had flexible applications. This switch in particular has 2 sets of hot cams to parallel power out to 2 centralized locations. This helps take up less space than traditional wiring so that the user can fully utilize their power needs.
The Power Assemblies’ QCS is constructed with premium materials and industry-approved components. Before leaving our manufacturing facility, we put our QCS through tests to make sure that it was wired properly. All our products are carefully designed around national, state, and local regulations. The safety of our team, distributors, and end-users is always our #1 priority.
Custom 250A Company Switch
We recently took our standard Company Switch and added a few custom options inside the unit. This switch is equipped with a 120/208V, 250A Main Breaker and (2) sets of Female Camlocks. One special addition we added was (2) 208V, 50A weatherproof receptacles mounted on the side of the unit.
While this company switch is rated for 250A, we have several other standard options available rated at 60, 100, 200, and 400 amps. We enjoy using our years of experience to solve complex problems, and then transform concepts and visions into high-quality custom distribution equipment. Our entire design process revolves around creating powerful, safe equipment at unbeatable prices.
Our distributor had us design this custom Company Switch for use in the television/motion picture industry to offer overcurrent protection and instantly disconnect power in case of an emergency. This switch also includes a lockable door, which cannot open until the power is shut off so there’s no need to worry about unauthorized personnel tampering with your equipment. Our standard configuration Company Switches ship within 10-15 business days when all components are in stock. Please contact us If you would like a lead time for your custom build.
