One of the biggest stories in power distribution is a specialized power distribution box—what we at HIPOWER SYSTEMS call a generator docking stations (GDS)—that is specifically designed to be connected quickly and easily to a portable (mobile; roll-up) generator. (Note that there is no industry standard name for these devices, so we will refer to them as GDSs.) The boxes themselves are not mobile. Rather, they are stationary power distribution units hardwired into a facility’s power supply infrastructure. They offer the ultimate protection for operations where power is truly mission-critical—where the facility cannot be without

power for even a few seconds, no matter what. These units enable companies to quickly and easily bring in replacements for backup generators so they can be taken down for service or maintenance, or to act as a “backup for the backup” in the event of a power outage. Since their introduction to the market, many companies are finding other, valuable uses for GDSs that go beyond the most mission-critical operations. Unlike transfer switches, which generally connect a permanent, external standby generator to a facility’s power connection for quick switching to generator power, a GDS is mounted on the building (or placed on a nearby

pad) to create a “quick connect” link between the transfer switch or other disconnect and a mobile generator. If a facility wants or needs to obtain additional power for any reason, having a previously installed, externally mounted GDS enables them to connect a portable generator, located in a nearby alley or other external location, to the building’s disconnect via simple cam-style connections. Some of these units also can incorporate male or female cam-style connections, enabling either input of power to service the building or output of power for other uses.
