I interned with Rogers Electric, where I focused on the design of mobile and modular temporary power solutions for construction jobsites. My work centered on improving safety, flexibility, and efficiency for on-site power distribution through custom-designed carts, stands, and prefabricated concepts. These designs were developed to support multiple generator sizes, accommodate varying electrical configurations, and withstand demanding jobsite environments.
This Power-on-Wheels cart was designed to accommodate the three generator sizes used on Rogers’ jobsites: 30 kVA, 45 kVA, and 75 kVA. Adjustable lower struts allow the cart to fit varying generator widths, while adjustable internal struts support a range of electrical panels and switchboards. The panels are protected from jobsite hazards by an added layer of bent 90-degree steel.
The cart is mounted on high-capacity caster wheels and can be lifted using either the top eye bolts or the 3 in × 6 in lower tubing with a forklift. Although not fully shown in the drawings, the cart also incorporates four LED acrylic Rogers logos to provide a clear visual indicator that power is active.
Pictured on the left is the previous setup, with the redesigned Power-on-Wheels cart shown after implementation.
