Power Control Houses

Powercon, a specialized division of Federal Pacific, engineers prefabricated power control houses called the POWERCONtrol Complex to provide a climate-controlled, integrated environment for critical power distribution infrastructure. These factory-assembled buildings shelter medium-voltage and low-voltage switchgear, protective relays, and sensitive control systems from extreme weather and hazardous industrial conditions.

Powercon pre-wires and pre-tests every power control house before shipment, reducing on-site construction timelines and providing single-source responsibility for the complete power distribution assembly.

Technical Overview

⸻ OVERVIEW ⸻

Powercon engineers power control houses to support equipment longevity and personnel safety, maintaining a stable, isolated environment for high-voltage and control hardware.

⸻ Applications ⸻

Typical Applications

Power Control Houses are utilized in environments where high-value electrical assets require protection from ambient contaminants or extreme temperature fluctuations.
