Surplus wire buyers for eastern Kentucky
Eastern Kentucky's electrical surplus comes from heavy industry in difficult terrain: steel and refinery work on the Ohio River, mine and preparation plant electrical systems, and plants strung along the I-75 corridor.
Mine and preparation plant electrical work uses tough, heavily jacketed cable: trailing cable, mine power feeder, shielded medium-voltage cable and portable cord that has been built to survive. When a section closes or a plant is idled, that cable is often still on the reel because it was bought for a planned extension that never happened.
The I-75 corridor from London through Corbin is a different mix: distribution centers, food processing and light manufacturing, with the usual building wire, tray cable and data cable surplus. Ashland and the river counties add steel and refinery material, including heavy feeder and control cable from turnaround work.
