Temporary power boards provide safe, reliable electricity to construction sites, events, and short-term installations. They are designed to distribute power during the early stages of a project before permanent electrical infrastructure is in place.
These boards are essential for running tools, lighting, machinery, and site amenities.
Also known as site power boards they typically include features such as RCD protection, circuit breakers and multiple outlets for both single-phase and three-phase connections. Temporary power boards are engineered to meet strict safety and compliance standards, including AS/NZS 3012 for construction sites.
Because they are often exposed to harsh environmental conditions, temporary boards are built tough - with robust materials and secure enclosures that can handle dust, moisture, impact, and frequent relocation. Some units are mounted on poles, while others are freestanding or wall-mounted depending on the site layout and power requirements.
These boards are essential for getting power on-site quickly and safely, whether for a new build, renovation, or remote setup. Once permanent power is installed, temporary boards are removed or repurposed for future projects. Proper selection and setup of temporary power boards help avoid delays, ensure site safety, and keep work progressing efficiently.
