How Connecticut jobs actually run
Utility territory matters here more than most owners expect: Eversource, United Illuminating each have their own disconnect and metering process, and the sequence of who de-energizes what is usually the longest lead item on the schedule.
Freight is the other half. We route Connecticut work along I-95, I-91 and I-84, which is what keeps trailer and crew cost predictable on a quote instead of padded.
Aerospace and precision manufacturing in the Hartford and Bridgeport corridors run older Westinghouse and Federal Pacific gear that is exactly the obsolete inventory plants elsewhere are hunting for.
Primary hubs
Hartford, Stamford, New Haven and Bridgeport — but coverage is statewide, including rural substation and mine sites.

What we buy in Connecticut
Electrical Switchgear
We buy low- and medium-voltage switchgear line-ups out of live plants, substations and buildings scheduled for demolition — metal-clad, metal-enclosed, drawout and fixed-mount.
480 V – 38 kV, up to 5,000 AGenerators
Diesel and natural-gas gensets from 100 kW through 3 MW — enclosed, open-skid, trailer-mounted and sub-base tank units, with or without their transfer switches.
100 kW – 3 MW diesel and gasTransformers
Pad-mount, dry-type, cast-coil, unit substation and liquid-filled power transformers from 75 kVA through 50 MVA, including units still energized on the pad.
75 kVA – 50 MVABus Plugs
Fusible and circuit-breaker bus plugs by the unit or by the pallet — 30 A through 1,200 A, all major busway systems, any vintage.
30 A – 1,200 A fusible and breakerBus Duct & Busway
Plug-in and feeder busway runs, elbows, tees, end boxes and cable-tap sections — copper or aluminum, 225 A through 5,000 A, removed by our own crews.
225 A – 5,000 A runsPanelboards & Switchboards
Panelboards, switchboards, distribution panels, safety switches and disconnects — loaded with breakers or empty, one panel or a whole building's worth.
100 A – 4,000 AWire & Cable
Surplus and reclaimed copper and aluminum wire and cable — full spools, partial spools, off-spool coils and cable pulled out of cancelled jobs.
#12 AWG – 1,000 MCMLoad Banks
Resistive and resistive/reactive load banks — portable, trailer-mounted, roof-top and permanently installed, 100 kW through 3 MW.
100 kW – 3 MW resistiveCircuit Breakers
Molded-case, insulated-case, low-voltage power and medium-voltage vacuum and air-magnetic breakers — single units, pallets and full sets pulled from a line-up.
15 A – 6,000 A framesMotor Control Centers
Complete MCC line-ups, individual vertical sections, starter buckets and VFD sections — low voltage and medium voltage, any generation.
MCC line-ups, buckets, VFD sectionsSubstations
Complete unit substations and outdoor station equipment — primary switch, transformer, secondary switchgear, structures, bus and relaying, bought as one lot.
Complete unit and station substationsTransfer Switches
Automatic and manual transfer switches, bypass-isolation switches and paralleling gear, 100 A through 4,000 A, pulled with or without their generators.
100 A – 4,000 A ATSCapacitors & Power Quality
Fixed and automatically switched capacitor banks, harmonic filters, reactors and power-factor correction equipment, indoor and outdoor.
50 kVAR – 10 MVARComplete Plant Lots
When a plant closes, we buy the entire electrical scope as one lot — substation to receptacle — and we do the teardown and loading at our cost.

Connecticut questions
Do you actually buy electrical equipment in Connecticut, or just broker it?
We buy it. Industrial Electrical Buyer is the purchaser of record — we fund the purchase, send our own crews to Connecticut to disconnect and load, and take title when the equipment leaves your dock. There is no third party behind us waiting to approve the price.
What is the smallest job you will take in Connecticut?
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 Connecticut continuously, small Connecticut pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Connecticut site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Connecticut 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 Connecticut room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in Connecticut?
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 Connecticut and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
