About
East Coast Breakers & Controls backs every reconditioned electrical component with a 1-year warranty — a rare commitment in the surplus equipment market that gives facility managers and plant engineers a reliable fallback when OEM lead times or new-equipment budgets are prohibitive. Based in Providence, RI, this electrical surplus dealer serves commercial and industrial facilities throughout the Northeast, stocking an extensive inventory of circuit breakers, switchboards, panelboards, transformers, motor control center (MCC) buckets, bus duct, bus plugs, safety switches, magnetic starters, contactors, and fuses from major manufacturers including Square D, General Electric, Cutler Hammer, Siemens, Allen Bradley, and Westinghouse. For facility managers maintaining aging power distribution infrastructure in office buildings, industrial plants, warehouses, healthcare facilities, or institutional properties, East Coast Breakers & Controls is a critical resource for sourcing obsolete and hard-to-find components that keep critical systems operational without full-scale replacements. All inventory — whether brand new, new surplus, or reconditioned — undergoes a multi-point inspection process using professional-grade test equipment: Fluke multimeters, AEMC micro-ohmmeters, Multi-Amp CB8160 primary injection current test sets, Megger insulation test sets, and Seltronic test sets. Reconditioning standards follow PEARL (Professional Electrical Apparatus Recyclers League) Low Voltage Reconditioning Standards, ensuring mechanical and electrical integrity. The team brings backgrounds in both electrical contracting and electrical engineering, supported by an electrical reference library with resources dating to the 1920s — useful for cross-referencing legacy equipment specifications in older commercial and industrial buildings across Rhode Island and the broader Northeast region. Property managers and general contractors dealing with replacement parts for 600V class power distribution, MCC systems, or obsolete switchgear will find East Coast Breakers & Controls a knowledgeable, warrantied sourcing partner.
