Circuit Breakers buyers serving Somerville
Our Massachusetts routing runs along I-90, I-93, I-95 and Route 128, which keeps crew and trailer cost predictable for Somerville projects. Coordination with Eversource, National Grid, Unitil on clearances, metering removal and final disconnect is part of the scope, not a change order.
If the Somerville equipment is still carrying load we phase it — dead sections and spares first, distribution as circuits are released, the main line-up on the final clearance. The phasing is written into the offer so nobody improvises in an energized room at two in the morning.

What we take out of Somerville sites
Molded-case breakers
15 A through 2,500 A molded-case breakers of every major line, bolt-on and plug-in, with or without trip units. Discontinued Federal Pacific, Zinsco, Challenger, ITE and older Westinghouse frames are in constant demand for repair work.
Low-voltage power and insulated case
Drawout and fixed low-voltage power breakers — GE AKR and Magne-Blast lines, Square D Masterpact and DS, Eaton Magnum, Siemens — 800 A through 6,000 A, with electronic or electromechanical trips. Matched sets from a single switchgear order are worth quoting together.
Massachusetts specifics
Hospital and university essential-power upgrades across greater Boston free up standby generators, isolated power panels and switchgear, and dense urban sites make removal planning the whole job.

Somerville questions
What is the smallest job you will take in Somerville?
A single transformer, one switchgear section, a pallet of bus plugs or a few boxes of breakers is worth a call. Because we route crews across Massachusetts continuously, small Somerville pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Somerville site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Somerville 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 Somerville room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in Somerville?
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 Somerville and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
When do we get paid?
Before the equipment leaves your Somerville dock. Wire, company check or cashier's check, whichever your accounting group prefers. On large phased projects we pay per load as it ships rather than holding everything until the end.
