Primary Restoration Carts
The Trystar Primary Restoration Cart enables utilities to restore power quickly during outages by providing a temporary high-capacity link between transformers. Portable and fast to deploy, it’s ideal for residential and industrial areas, helping maintain service and improve reliability metrics like SAIDI and CAIDI. With up to 500 feet of shielded #2–15kV cable, it bridges distribution gaps, and multiple carts can be linked for longer distances. Single- and three-phase capability ensures versatility and customer satisfaction.
