Abstract: An apparatus for providing temporary electrical service. The apparatus includes a support structure having at least one service line, a meter base, and a breaker box secured thereto. One or more electrical receptacles can also be secured to the support structure. The support structure can be a trailer so as to facilitate the ready transport of the apparatus. The apparatus can also include a temporary service pole securable to the support structure, with a first service line for connecting to an overhead power supply extending through the service pole to a transfer switch. A second service line that can be connected to an underground power supply also connects to the transfer switch. The transfer switch can be positioned to permit electricity to flow from one of the service lines into the meter base, then into the breaker box. From the breaker box, electricity can flow into the electrical receptacles to facilitate the use of electrical equipment. Methods of using the apparatus are also disclosed.
