Industrial Power Docking Stations for Facilities

Lake Shore Electric's Power docking stations, also called fast-connect power panels or electric connect cabinets, can be an important part of your organization’s power outage contingency plan.

With aging infrastructure in many parts of the country and severe weather, having a generator system that works can ensure you’re not in the dark for hours or days. A generator docking station from Lake Shore Electric gives you peace of mind.

What Are Power Docking Stations?

Power docking stations are permanent solutions that let you quickly connect to a portable generator at your facility when other sources of power aren't available. With power docking stations and an electric manual switch, you simply plug in your generator to the docking station during a power outage and flip a switch to get a backup source of power.

Power Docking Stations From Lake Shore Electric Support Safety

A power docking station can protect electrical systems and equipment from damage caused by power surges. It also reduces the tripping hazard posed by cables in traditional generator setups and reduces the risk of overvoltage and exposure to live wiring.

Electric Connect Cabinets From Lake Shore Electric Offer Reliability and Efficiency

Our Connect Series helps you connect to a generator in minutes, not hours, reducing downtime and allowing you to stay productive. There are three main applications:

  • As a backup power source for businesses that don't often lose power: For many businesses, a docking station with a portable generator is a more affordable option than a permanent generator, yet it still ensures continuous power. 
  • As a backup for permanent generators: Data centers, hospitals, nursing homes, emergency services buildings, and other critical infrastructure rely on a power docking station as a backup system in case their permanent generator needs maintenance. 
  • As a solution on remote sites: Construction sites, utility worksites, and events also count on electric connect panels to ensure reliable power.
