The technology industry is one of the most dynamic markets we serve. Whether a research and development facility or a telecommunications business, one constant remains, the electrical requirements of the industry are demanding and unique. Another constant has been the presence of O'Connell Electric. We have consistently met the special, changing needs of this market.
Today’s high technology business facilities utilize advanced electronic equipment and power distribution systems that necessitate reliable, high quality power sources. Electrical requirements for segments such as data and telecommunications centers can be described in two words: Mission Critical. Loss of power or power quality can be catastrophic. In the event of power failure, switching from normal to emergency power must take place seamlessly. Likewise, R&D facilities are technically sophisticated and electrically intensive.
At O'Connell, we are specialists at keeping up with change. We bring the experience, expertise, resources, and project management skills necessary to meet the sophisticated electrical system challenges presented by this market sector. We are a trusted source for bringing facilities online quickly and for keeping them operating reliably. In the end, we recognize that our reputation is on the line just as much as yours is.

PowerProject Overview:
To meet growing demands, NYSEG needed to reinforce the electrical system capacity for Westchester County by installing a new sub transmission line that would connect the grid to a regional distribution substation.
O’Connell’s Role:
O’Connell was prime contractor for NYSEG’s $2 million project to install a 46kV transmission line near Katonah and Cross River, New York.
The project consisted of constructing six miles of pre-assembled aerial cable transmission line, one and a half miles of overhead construction to 115kV standards, and a quarter mile open crossing over the heavily traveled I-684 corridor. Completing the highway crossing with only a 14 minute traffic stoppage was a notable achievement—especially on Mother’s Day morning. The project was completed in four months.
