Patent ID: 8681479

Claim:
A pre-wired and pre-engineered integrated platform for a power supply and distribution skid that is pre-assembled, scalable, and modular, comprising: a skeletal framework of the integrated platform that acts as an equipment support structure as well as a cable routing support system; a set of cables having wiring routed along the skeletal framework of the integrated platform going to two or more cabinet enclosures mounted onto the skeletal framework, where the skeletal framework acts as a National Electric Code approved raceway system to support and route the set of cables to electrical equipment in the mounted cabinet enclosures; wherein the integrated platform supports the weight of two or more cabinet enclosures mounted onto the skeletal framework that includes a main power supply housed in a first cabinet enclosure mounted to the skeletal framework, a backup power supply housed in a second cabinet enclosure mounted to the skeletal framework, and a power distribution center housed in a third cabinet enclosure mounted to the skeletal framework, where main and redundant power supply wiring is laid out and routed along the skeletal framework of the integrated platform to and between the two or more enclosures mounted onto the skeletal framework, wherein the skeletal framework of the integrated platform has top and bottom longitudinal rails that run substantially parallel to each other with cross bars connecting the top and bottom rails, and lateral rails that connect to the longitudinal rails to form the skeletal framework of the integrated platform, the skeletal framework has a top horizontal surface to which two or more of the cabinet enclosures mount to the longitudinal and the lateral rails making up the top horizontal surface of the skeletal framework, wherein the wiring is routed along the skeletal framework in a vertical space between a bottom horizontal surface of the skeletal framework and the top horizontal surface of the skeletal framework, wherein the set of cables, the skeletal framework and the cabinet enclosures are fabricated in place prior to the integrated platform being installed and are installed as a monolithic pre-wired preassembled integrated platform.
