Switch Rooms

Switch Room Containers for Sale

Protect the electrical heart of your worksite with our Switch Room Containers, purpose-built for the on-site testing and housing of electrical equipment that must be monitored in a temperature-controlled environment. A switch room, or control room, is the electrical nerve centre of any operation, and the sensitive controls it holds are often mission-critical. This modified shipping container switch room gives mining, industrial, and construction operators a rugged, reliable enclosure that keeps that equipment safe and stable.

Engineered for Critical Equipment

Even a small equipment failure can carry catastrophic financial consequences, which is why our switch rooms are lined with the highest-quality 50mm insulated sandwich paneling on the market. Heavy-duty air conditioners are available to hold precise temperatures around your electrical components and critical technology, guarding against overheating and moisture that can compromise performance.

Built to Your Requirements

Available in 20-foot and 40-foot sizes, each switch room can be customized to your exact specification. Choose from a wide range of accessories, including high-powered air conditioning, penetration and gland plates, fire safety systems, emergency push-bar doors, ceiling cable trays, and Unistrut fit-outs, so the enclosure matches your equipment and site layout precisely. A choice of exterior colours lets it blend into or stand out from your facility as needed.

Switch Rooms May Include

• High-powered air conditioners for climate control
• Emergency exit doors
• Container insulation with 50mm insulated sandwich paneling
• Floor and wall RHS-framed penetrations and gland plates
• Fire safety systems
• Unistrut channel and cable trays
• Available in 20ft and 40ft sizes and a range of colours

When specifying a switch room, start with the footprint your equipment demands, then match cooling capacity to the heat load of your gear. Confirm cable-entry points and any fire-safety requirements up front so penetrations and systems are built in from the start. As a new build, the unit arrives ready to commission.

Every switch room is inspected before dispatch, and we deliver Canada-wide from Winnipeg, Manitoba, direct to your site. Contact Pauls Containers Ltd to request a quote and configure a control room around your equipment.
