Harness true power with East Coast Power Systems
When an unplanned power outage hit a Morristown hotel, financial and operational ramifications were looming. Within hours, East Coast Power Systems sent a solution that not only restored power in a record time period, but spared the client costly, short-term fixes.
Contact UsA surprise electrical outage plunged a Morristown hotel into darkness, forcing managers to rent a standby generator just to keep lights on. With guests on site and costs mounting by the hour, the hotel needed more than a makeshift repair—they needed an all-out emergency switchboard overhaul, and fast.
When East Coast Power Systems was brought in to assess the issue, our crew recognized immediately the root dangers. While a temporary fix would have solved the immediate problem, it would not have passed inspection. The hotel contractor sought something more long-term and cost-effective that would provide protection for guests and ensure code compliance.

Once our president, Sal Rinaldi, became aware of the criticality of the situation, our technician was on-site within a few hours of the initial call. Scorched markings on the distribution unit, which could only be seen under closer inspection, revealed that the problem was more than just surface damage.
Instead of a copper replacement with a short-term lifespan, we proposed a complete switchboard retrofit—delivered and installed within three days.

Within three days’ time, we delivered and fully installed a new switchboard to the site. Power was restored to the hotel, inspections were sanctioned, and the client avoided further rental costs on a generator. The contractor was pleased with the turnaround time and quality of the retrofit—confirming East Coast Power Systems as a trusted partner for mission critical power solutions.
Contact UsAn emergency switchboard retrofit involves replacing or upgrading a facility’s electrical switchboard after a failure or code violation. It’s typically needed when equipment is damaged beyond repair, unsafe for operation, or unlikely to pass inspection—especially in critical environments like hotels, hospitals, or manufacturing plants.
Timelines vary, but in emergency scenarios, East Coast Power Systems can assess, build, and install a custom switchboard in as little as three days—minimizing downtime and restoring power fast. Having in-house inventory and manufacturing capabilities helps accelerate turnaround.
While generators offer short-term relief, extended use is costly and unreliable. They also don’t address underlying electrical issues, which can worsen over time. A permanent retrofit ensures long-term safety, code compliance, and operational efficiency.
East Coast Power Systems combines rapid response, in-house manufacturing, and deep technical expertise to deliver custom switchboard solutions that meet inspection standards and client timelines. Our team is trusted by contractors and facility managers for mission-critical power solutions across commercial and industrial sectors.
