Our team at Bowe & Gant recently completed a critical pole line replacement in New Jersey, protecting a local cold storage and packing facility from a major operational failure. We received an emergency call about a power outage caused by a damaged riser pole, the single connection point for their entire operation. For a business where precise temperature control is essential, any power disruption creates an immediate risk of product spoilage and significant financial loss. The situation required a fast and effective response to get them back online.
Rapid Response and Site Safety
Our 24/7 emergency response team was mobilized immediately. Upon arriving at the facility, we confirmed the riser pole and its associated 15kv medium-voltage wiring were compromised, completely cutting off the power supply. The first priority was to secure the site, ensuring the safety of the facility’s staff and our own IBEW-trained lineworkers before any work began. This is a standard part of our process in any emergency situation.
Expert Execution of the Pole Line Replacement In New Jersey
With the area safe and the system de-energized, our crew, utilizing a fully-equipped bucket truck and specialized pole-setting equipment, started the replacement process. We carefully removed the damaged structure and installed a new utility pole. The job included the complete fit-out of the new pole and the expert handling and re-running of the 15kv wiring. This ensured a stable and reliable connection from the aerial distribution network to the facility’s underground feed, restoring the system to its proper operational state.
