Switchgear buyers serving Ithaca
Ithaca sits in New York, where Con Edison, National Grid, NYSEG, Central Hudson, PSEG Long Island feed the load and I-87, I-90, I-95, I-84 and the Thruway carry the freight. Sites near those corridors cost us less to service, and that shows up in your offer rather than in our margin. New York City, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse and Albany are routine stops and Ithaca work routes with them.
Once an offer is accepted we schedule around your outage, not ours. Night, weekend and phased removals in Ithaca are ordinary work. Crews arrive with their own rigging, lifts and containment, protect the floors and leave the room broom clean.

Equipment
What we take out of Ithaca sites
Medium-voltage metal-clad line-ups
Complete 4.16 kV, 13.8 kV and 38 kV metal-clad structures with their vacuum or air-magnetic breakers still racked in, main-tie-main arrangements, incoming line and metering cubicles, relay and protection sections, and outdoor walk-in and non-walk-in enclosures. Current-production vacuum breakers are the single strongest value driver in this category.
Low-voltage switchgear and switchboards
480 V and 600 V drawout switchgear, group-mounted and individually-mounted switchboards, main breaker and main lug sections, distribution sections with feeder breakers, and service-entrance equipment with utility metering. Square D Power-Style, GE AKD, Eaton Magnum and Siemens line-ups all move well.
New York specifics
New York is two completely different jobs sharing a state line. In the five boroughs and the lower Hudson Valley the work is vertical and permit-heavy: switchboards and busway risers coming out of pre-war commercial buildings, hospital and university plants replacing essential-power systems, and Con Edison network gear on a renewal cycle that never really stops. Freight elevators, night windows and street-level staging decide the schedule far more than the rigging does. Upstate is horizontal and industrial — the Buffalo and Niagara Falls electrochemical and metals legacy, Rochester optics and imaging plants that have been shedding infrastructure for two decades, Syracuse and Utica manufacturing, and the semiconductor and battery build-out that is now retiring the gear it replaced. Bus duct is unusually common in both halves, because so much of this building stock was wired when busway was the standard answer.

Common questions
Ithaca questions
How fast can you get to a Ithaca site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Ithaca 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 Ithaca room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in Ithaca?
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 Ithaca and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
When do we get paid?
Before the equipment leaves your Ithaca 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 Ithaca equipment on what our technicians and the replacement market say it is worth.
