Hunt Electric provided a design-assist High Voltage
Backbone for the Morgan Asphalt plant in Magna, Utah. The Hunt Electric High
Voltage team supported Morgan Asphalt by assisting in an early electrical
design allowing them to become a primary metered (high voltage) customer for
Rocky Mountain Power. Hunt expedited the purchase and installation of critical high-voltage
equipment to meet the primary meter conversion deadline. Primary metering now allows
Morgan Asphalt to operate on a more cost-effective rate schedule for a better financial
return. Hunt Electric provided and installed the primary metering cabinet,
transformers, fused sectionalizers, and underground wire. Hunt Electric works
with our customers to offer options and alternatives for switching and
energizing a high-voltage system. Morgan Asphalt was able to meet its critical
start-up deadlines, allowing the plant to come on-line and begin production in
time for the busy spring demand. By working together early in the design
process, Hunt Electric was able to better understand Morgan Asphalt’s needs and
help them enhance their operations.
