Panelboards

About The Project

Access Electric Supply recently helped an industrial customer solve a complex retrofit challenge involving 25 existing panel boards. The facility needed to upgrade to new breakers to meet NEC 701 and achieve selective coordination, but the standard panelboard options available wouldn’t fit the existing wall-mounted enclosures. Replacing the entire infrastructure would have been costly and required extensive factory downtime.

Leveraging our technical expertise and strong relationship with IEM, we were able to design and deliver fully custom panelboards that fit perfectly into the existing boxes, while accommodating the breaker sizes the customer needed. This tailored solution minimized downtime, avoided expensive demolition or rework, and provided a clean, code-compliant upgrade path.

By partnering with manufacturers and applying engineering knowledge, we were able to once again deliver smarter, cost-effective results, adding value beyond distribution.
