Substation buildings and enclosures require very strict standard and code requirements due to the high levels of electricity flowing through the equipment. Panel Built’s modularized substation buildings not only meet all of these high standards but will meet them swiftly and affordably. Our exterior modular enclosures are entrusted with preserving many different types of equipment and machinery, from high-grade water pumps to laser work areas. Therefore, our areas can be highly specialized to fit nearly any environment or application. In this instance, the building would need to have the structural integrity to properly house the substation, however, modular construction can allow for added benefits over tradition substation enclosures.
The biggest of these is that the panels for a modular substation are all constructed in a controlled, manufacturing environment. This environment allows for fewer delays in the construction process and drastically lowers the risk of damaged and wasted materials. No water can become trapped in the materials, keeping the panel structure in perfect working condition. Also, since the building is pre-engineered, after all the materials are shipped to the job site, all that is left is the installation of the building onto a concrete slab. This is a quick process where all of the materials brought to the job site will be used in the job itself.
