The wait

The critical path now runs through a transformer.

The building can go up in months. The equipment that powers it is quoted in years. A third or more of the data center capacity planned in the US for 2026 is running late, and transformers and switchgear are the most common reason.

How we help

Three ways to get it sooner.

We are not a catalog and we do not hold you to one factory. We look across production slots and surplus, then take on the work that usually slows a purchase down.

Open factory slots

Your order goes where the capacity is.

We track production capacity at transformer and switchgear plants in India, Turkey and Mexico that build to US standards, and place your order where a slot is open.

  • 60 Hz, ANSI/IEEE C57 designs
  • DOE 10 CFR 431 efficiency
  • UL-listed lines where your install needs it
Tested surplus

Units that already exist.

New-surplus and refurbished equipment from cancelled projects and decommissioned sites. Every unit is inspected, oil-tested and documented before you commit.

  • Transformers, switchgear, gensets, UPS
  • Test reports and photos up front
  • Delivery in weeks, not quarters
We carry the paperwork

One contact from PO to energization.

Submittals, drawings, witnessed factory tests, third-party inspection, DOE filing, freight, customs and warranty. You deal with us; we deal with everyone else.

  • Submittal packages your engineer can approve
  • Factory acceptance tests, witnessed
  • Delivered duty paid to site
Process

From spec to pad.

Most requests start with a single line: rating, voltages, quantity and the date you need it on site. That is enough for us to start looking.

01Day 0

Send a spec

A one-line description, a drawing set or a bill of materials. Tell us when the equipment has to be on site.

02Within 48 hours

Get real options

New builds and surplus units side by side, each with a price, a delivery date and the documents behind it.

03Build and test

We run the build

Drawings, approvals, factory acceptance testing and independent inspection, with updates at every milestone.

04Delivery

On your pad

Freight, customs and delivery to site, with test reports, DOE data and warranty paperwork in the crate.

Equipment

What we source.

Built to US specifications, from factories and suppliers that already hold the certifications your project needs. If you do not see it here, ask.

Market wait is the typical lead time quoted for new equipment in 2026. We quote our own delivery date for every request.

Who we work with

Built for the people on the critical path.

We work best with teams who already know exactly what they need and are short on time.

Electrical contractors and EPCs

Fill the gap when a distributor quote slips past your schedule.

Data center developers

Lock in equipment for later phases before the order books close.

Utilities and co-ops

Distribution and pad-mount transformers to clear the backlog of new connections.

Solar and storage developers

Inverter-duty and step-up transformers for projects in the interconnection queue.

Miners moving to AI

Switchgear, transformers and backup power to convert sites to high-density compute.
