At first glance, cable reel trailers seem fairly straightforward. They're just a way to transport heavy cable reels... Right? Unfortunately, they're not as simple as they seem. Temporary power projects rarely come with a one-size-fits-all set of requirements. That means that whether you're supporting a mobile substation, responding to an emergency outage, or deploying temporary power at an industrial site, the equipment you need depends on the application. Cable length, medium voltage cable size, connection requirements, available space, deployment conditions, and transportation needs can all influence the right solution. That's why Amphenol TPC Wire & Cable (ATPC) designs and builds custom cable reel trailers around the requirements of each project and jobsite.

When utility companies deploy temporary power systems, mobile substations, or emergency backup infrastructure, the cable used in the process is only part of the equation. And the way those cables are transported, stored, deployed, and protected in the field can have a major impact on both operator safety and system reliability.

When it comes to an unexpected loss of power, finding yourself in reactive mode is not where you want to be. Being prepared is the only way to keep your plant fully operational in an unexpected power outage and the ability to deploy your own supplementary temporary power is now a possibility.
