Load Banks buyers serving Hammond
Steel mills in the Calumet region and automotive plants across central Indiana run some of the heaviest MV switchgear and furnace transformer installations in the country. For Hammond specifically that density helps: crews already move through Indianapolis, Fort Wayne and Evansville, so mobilization is a scheduling question rather than a cost problem.
If the Hammond 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 Hammond sites
Portable and trailer-mounted units
Wheeled and trailer-mounted resistive banks used for generator acceptance and annual testing, typically 100 kW to 1 MW, with their load cable, camlock tails and control panels. Rental-fleet retirements are common and usually well maintained.
Permanent and roof-mounted banks
Fixed load banks installed for automatic exercise of standby plants, including roof-mounted units and those integrated with paralleling switchgear. Removal is a crane and controls-disconnection job that we plan on the survey.

Hammond questions
How fast can you get to a Hammond site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Hammond 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 Hammond room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in Hammond?
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 Hammond and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
When do we get paid?
Before the equipment leaves your Hammond 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.
What if the equipment is old or has no test records?
We still quote it. Records raise the number — a NETA test report on a breaker or a transformer is the single document that most improves what we can pay — but their absence disqualifies nothing. We price Hammond equipment on what our technicians and the replacement market say it is worth.
