Details

ParkUSA power and communication vaults are designed for housing underground electrical, communications, and data center infrastructure. These precast concrete vaults provide secure and efficient storage for critical equipment, protecting them from environmental elements and unauthorized access.

The load-bearing vaults are customized to accommodate specific equipment dimensions, access requirements, and utility configurations. Added features may include ventilation, fire protection, grounding and shielding, sump pumps, waterproofing, and seismic and wind load compliance. Communication vaults can be provided with specialized grounding systems to prevent electromagnetic interference.

How It Works

Precast concrete underground electrical power and communication vaults provide a secure and accessible enclosure for housing and protecting critical infrastructure components.

The vaults are designed according to the specific requirements of the electrical or communication system, such as equipment dimensions, utility configurations, and access points. The structures are manufactured at our plants in a controlled environment to ensure quality, durability, and consistency.

Electrical power and communication cables, along with other necessary equipment such as transformers, switchgear, and junction boxes, are installed and secured within the vaults and manholes. Vaults have secure access points, such as lockable hatches or doors, to allow for authorized personnel to access, inspect, maintain, or repair the equipment and cables housed within the enclosure.
