Containerised Substations

Containerised substations inside the Bowers factory

Bowers supplies containerised substations, utilising either new or refurbished modified containers, with HV & LV switchgear and transformer fitted integrally.

Containers are offered as standard or bespoke packages to suit the client’s requirements. Containerised substations are perfect for customers who need portability and flexibility when it comes to using their substations. They are suitable for temporary supply or if supply is needed in different areas of the site.

The containers are fully equipped and assembled prior to delivery, allowing for minimal site and civil works.

Our typical containerised substations package compromises of an ISO 20 or 40-foot new or refurbished shipping container modified to the Bowers Package Substation specification.
