Fiberglass Transformer Pads
Pacific Patriot is exclusively partnered to manufacture a wide range of transformer pads that are engineered and designed to handle the weight and dimensional footprint of most transformers, switchgear, generators and CSTE’s used in the electrical market.
Pacific Patriot also has the engineering capabilities to design and manufacture custom bases that can handle larger and heavier cabinets, ideal for remote locations where accessibility is limited.
Advantages of Fiberglass Transformer Pads
Save up to 30% over typical concrete construction.
