More Daily Arrivals!

The weather has finally broken 100 degrees here in Texas and that gets our inventory/warehouse folks really moving. 

Easily the the largest challenge we have is keeping track of the 1 million parts and breakers we have in stock. 

(Don't believe me on that one million number?  Come visit me and after we walk around a bit, the loser buys lunch.)

Here is load of equipment that came in last week.  It includes a 4000 amp double ended 480 volt substation.  This particular one is General Electric AKD-8.  This is very popular switchgear and has a significant "installed base" across America.

This piece has AKR-8D-100 4000 amp main breakers with an AKR-8D-75 tie breaker and 5 AKR-8D-50 1600 amp feeder breakers.  And "8" was the Epic Microversatrip and the first generation of "communications".  Notice the EPU display units on both mains.  Our techs can re-certify all this and ship switchgear like this that looks new (see future blog article, we just shipped a large piece of this).

And this photo is for all the breaker aficionados (do you really suppose there is such a thing?)  I can think of 3 members of that club besides me.  But I am sure it is like Skull & Bones and you cannot divulge your membership nor can I divulge those 3 members (Scott you are in).

This is the breaker elevating device for that AKD-8 switchgear above. If anyone has ever had the task of inserting or removing a circuit breaker "without" this device, they will really appreciate this photo. 

And never forget to use "remote racking equipment" when inserting or withdrawing any kind of  circuit breaker, motor control or other similar electrical device.
