Temporary Power
Modular & Camp Hookups
From temporary power poles for new builds to complex interconnects for multi-unit modular camp facilities. We get your site powered up and operational on schedule.
We supply and install temporary power poles (T-poles), construction distribution panels, and weather-proof site lighting to keep your crews working safely.
Expert electrical interconnects for job site trailers, skid-mounted offices, and multi-unit modular camps. We ensure all connections are CEC compliant and road-ready when it is time to demobilize.
For off-grid sites or critical backup power. We install manual and automatic transfer switches, heavy-duty cam-lok connections, and generator distribution panels.
Delays in site power mean delays for the entire project — idle crews, missed pours, and lost days you can't bill back. Our crews at Crescent Electric are site-ready (CSO, OSSA, WCB compliant) with their own trucks, tickets, and PPE staged for immediate dispatch. We coordinate seamlessly with site supervisors, GCs, and modular leasing companies like ATCO and Black Diamond to execute flawless hookups, accurate as-builts, and clean demobilizations — so your trailers land hot and leave the lot inspection-ready.
Send us your site plans or modular layout, and we will get your temporary power secured.

After more than a decade wiring homes and businesses in Fort McMurray, AB, we’ve learned that site trailer & modular hookups done well comes down to a handful of details most homeowners never see. Here is what we look for on every job — and what you should expect from any electrician you hire.
Sub-arctic winters in Fort McMurray, AB push electrical systems hard. Cold-weather brittleness in older aluminum and back-stab connections, condensation in unheated spaces, and heavy heat-tracing loads all change how a job has to be installed. Our crews specify cold-rated cable, weather-sealed enclosures, and properly torqued lugs verified to manufacturer spec so your site trailer & modular hookups keeps working through −40 °C.
Every project we complete is wired to the latest Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) as adopted by Alberta, with permits pulled through the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo and signed off by a Safety Codes Officer. That paper trail protects your home insurance, your warranty, and the resale value of your property — three things DIY work or unpermitted handymen quietly compromise.
Before we add a single circuit we calculate the demand against your existing service. Heat pumps, EV chargers, hot tubs, and induction ranges are routinely under-estimated, which is why we see panels in Timberlea, Thickwood, and Beacon Hill running near capacity. A proper Section 8 calculation tells us whether a panel upgrade, a sub-panel, or load management is the right answer — not a guess.
We standardize on tier-one components: copper conductors, Eaton/Square D/Siemens panels and breakers, hospital-grade devices where appropriate, and AFCI/GFCI protection per current code. Joints are made with proper connectors and torqued — never twisted with tape — and every device is labelled so the next electrician (or you) can troubleshoot in minutes.
When the SCO arrives we walk the job with them, panel labels visible, cover plates off, and test reports ready. Because we plan for inspection from the first staple, our pass rate on first inspection is well above the regional average — meaning your site trailer & modular hookups project finishes on time without a second visit fee.
Flickering lights on multiple circuits, breakers that trip the moment they’re reset, warm receptacle plates, the smell of burning bakelite, or any visible scorching are not “wait and see” problems. They are early warnings of arcing or loose connections that cause house fires. Call Crescent Electric at (587) 557-5494 the day you notice them — same-day diagnostics are almost always available in Fort McMurray, AB.
