Why Choose EMSCO?

When a plant is down or a project is on the clock, you need more than a catalog—you need equipment that’s actually available and a team that can confirm the right fit. Since 1948, we’ve helped electrical contractors and electricians, facility teams, and other professionals source industrial power distribution equipment with a clear path to delivery. Find. Fix. Fast.

Fix: Refurbished equipment you can trust

Refurbished shouldn’t mean “guesswork.” Our process is built around inspection, testing, and documentation so you can put equipment back in service with confidence. When you’re replacing gear tied to legacy systems or discontinued lines, we’ll help you match part numbers, ratings, and configurations—or identify the right alternative.

Fast: Quotes, answers, and shipping that keep schedules moving

Downtime is expensive. Our job is to help you move from “we need it” to “it’s on the way” with clear communication and fast fulfillment options—including overnight and hotshot shipping when time is critical. Unplanned downtime and emergencies? Call our 24/7 emergency line.

Built for the real world

  • Emergency replacements when lead times won’t work
  • Expansions and plant additions that need equipment now—not months from now
  • Maintenance shutdowns where the right configuration matters
  • Legacy/obsolete systems where matching and compatibility are the difference between “works” and “doesn’t”

FAQ

Do you help identify obsolete or hard-to-find electrical equipment?

Yes. Share part numbers, nameplate information, or photos, and our team can help identify the right product and configuration or suggest compatible alternatives.

Is refurbished equipment backed by a warranty?

Yes. Refurbished products are inspected and restored to industry standards (PEARL reconditioning standards) and include a 1-year warranty.

Does the website show everything you have in stock?

Not always. Inventory changes daily, and many warehoused items aren’t listed online or available for checkout. For real-time availability, call 1-800-328-1842 or email us for a quote. If you don’t see what you need, chances are it’s here—or we can source it fast. If an item shows “Contact us for price,” it simply means we’ll quote it to confirm the correct configuration and current pricing—not that it’s out of stock.

What types of equipment do you stock?

We stock industrial power distribution equipment including busway and plugs, circuit breakers, switchgear, transformers, and motor controls.
