Electric utilities use thousands of transformers throughout their distribution systems and many commercial and industrial facilities use transformers extensively. Not surprisingly, the temporary power industry uses transformers too. Portable transformers have two primary used: they can change the voltage, either step-up or step-down, and they can provide electrical isolation. For example, some events might require 480V power, 220V power, and 120V power simultaneously. Rather than using multiple generators to provide the different voltages, it is often more economical to use a single generator and one or more transformers to satisfy the requirements. In a concert situation, producers traditionally order 2 separate generators for lighting and sound. The primary reason for separate generators is that the electronic dimmers used in lighting control have the potential, under certain circumstances, to introduce hums and buzzes into the sound, and using separate generators eliminates that possibility. Another way to isolate the audio from the lighting, usually more economically, is to use an isolation transformer and one generator. In this case, the transformer does NOT change the voltage, merely protects the audio from unwanted interference.

After installing the cables that we were to provide for the event, we hit a bit of a snafu?an electrical contractor that was installing a new electrical cabinet for the City was running behind, and then plowed the underground power lines with a backhoe. So what did that mean? There was no power in the park and rehearsals started in less than a day. Sidram Power was there to help. In less than 24 hours, the company had three generators running, providing cabling and power for the entire site including the performance tent, artist trailers, production trailers, DJ tent, and the Raleigh Hotels on-site catering and dining tents. Along with expediting the electrical permit, we were onsite daily to deliver fuel to the generators, which were running 24 hours a day. Once the electrical contractor finished, Sidram Power removed the generators and connected the entire site to the newly provided electrical service. Sidram Power is providing distro and support to this event throughout its run in Miami Beach.
