Switchgear and Critical Power
Wire nuts at the counter. 38kV class in the back.
Benfield engineers and supplies switchgear across three tiers, low voltage through medium voltage to critical power, out of the same Mount Vernon building as the retail counter. The engineering that goes with it, arc flash studies, NETA testing, NYC EPR drawings, is done in-house by Benfield Control Systems.
Tier one
LV Power Distribution
Low voltage UL891 switchboards and UL1558 switchgear, built to NEMA 1, 12, 3R and 4X enclosure ratings depending on where the equipment lives. Standard configurations ship alongside customized, made-to-measure automation and integrated metering when a job calls for it.
Engineering support on the LV side includes short circuit coordination and arc flash studies, certified NETA testing, and NYC EPR drawing submission. Products come from Eaton, SEL, ABB, REX Power, Hammond.
Tier two
MV Power Distribution
5kV, 15kV and 38kV class switchgear for industrial, commercial and critical power markets, including EO-2022 compliant switchgear for Con Edison applications. This is the tier that separates a supply house from a distributor with an actual engineering department.
- Short circuit coordination and arc flash studies
- NYC EPR drawings
- Point-to-point diagrams
- Protective relay programming
- Factory witness tests
- Certified NETA testing
- Field engineering support
Tier three
Critical Power
UPS solutions with bypass maintenance switchboards and generator solutions for hospitals, data centers and other facilities where power cannot fail. Products from Vertiv and Eaton Powerware.
