Map of Outer Banks where power outage hit

When thousands of residents, tourists, and businesses were left in the dark on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, Maddox Industrial Transformer was called into action to assist in restoring power.

With this time of year being peak vacation season on the islands, this power outage left thousands of residents facing evacuation, threatened the loss of extensive annual revenue for local businesses, and ended many families’ beach vacations on a less-than-happy note.

Upon receiving the call for help, Maddox was ready and able to supply six (6) 2500 KVA Transformers. Having these units in stock at our Simpsonville, SC headquarters, our highly skilled technicians were able to have them ready to ship the same day that the emergency request was made.

This is all in a day’s work at Maddox. With 8 locations nationwide and thousands of new and remanufactured transformers (liquid-filled and dry-type) in stock and ready to ship, Maddox Industrial Transformer is just a call away to help get the lights back on when your power goes out!

Please give us a call or contact us with any transformer needs you may have!
