Trident Modular Temporary Power Restoration System
The Trident temporary power restoration system was specifically designed for utility linemen who need to restore power in locations where wheeled units cannot reach. It features modular, ultra-portable 10kVA autotransformers that enable effortless one-person carry-in and deployment.
Trident leverages advanced toroidal autotransformers to swiftly restore a missing hot leg or neutral in 120/240V or 120/208V services, minimizing downtime for homes and businesses during storms, accidents, or maintenance.

Why Linemen Choose Trident
Trident was built from the ground up based on direct feedback from utility line crews who needed a true one-person solution for difficult access.
- True One-Person Deployment — Each 10kVA autotransformer weighs only 45 lbs, allowing linemen to carry units into backyards, easements, and rough terrain where wheeled carts cannot go.
- Modular & Scalable — Use one 10kVA unit for 100A services or two units for full 200A service. Components can be purchased separately to match specific needs.
- Advanced Safety — Non-metallic flame-rated ABS enclosures are non-conducting and do not require grounding to a driven ground rod.
- Fast & Efficient — Quickly restores power to customers while permanent repairs are scheduled, improving crew efficiency and reducing outage duration.
- Compact Transport — Units fit easily in a light truck or even a car trunk.
Ideal Applications
- Difficult access locations (backyards, easements, rough terrain, flooded areas)
- Locations where wheeled units cannot be maneuvered
- 100A or 200A residential services
- Storm restoration and emergency response
- Crews that need true one-person carry capability
Trident vs Wheeled PowerBack Units
While the PowerBack and PowerBack Lite are excellent for standard access locations with wheeled mobility, the Trident excels in situations where crews must carry equipment to the meter. Its modular 45 lb design allows true one-person deployment in areas where heavier wheeled units are impractical or impossible to use.
