Rental-grade generators can deliver serious output (often at 480V), but that power isn’t immediately usable for most jobsite tools, lighting systems, or facility loads.
For rented power setups, the real challenge isn’t generation — it’s distribution.
Before temporary power can support real-world applications, it must be:
- Safely distributed
- Broken into protected circuits
- Stepped down to usable voltage levels
Structured distribution ensures generator output arrives where it’s needed as a usable, protected supply, ready for deployment across construction zones, campuses, and public safety training environments.
To rental agencies that deliver power — this is where your fleet gets jobsite-ready.
From Generator Output to Structured Distribution
Walther’s power distribution units (PDUs) can be configured in stacked systems of up to seven tiers, offering built-in stackability for rental fleets while providing a clean interface between rental generators and the rest of the jobsite.
A popular off-the-shelf model is the HEB3102U PDU, which centralizes incoming power and breaks it into circuit-protected outputs — helping crews distribute supply where it’s needed. For sites requiring expansion or multi-zone deployment, PDUs with pass-through configurations allow scalable setups so power distribution can grow with project demands.
Built for repeated deployment, these PDUs are engineered for durability and can withstand the wear and abuse common in rental environments.
Rather than improvising connections in the field, rental fleets can deploy purpose-built Power Distribution Units designed for temporary environments — weather-resistant, circuit-protected, and ready for repeated use.

Stepping Down to Safer, Usable Voltage
Most temporary jobsite equipment operates at lower, more common voltages — making step-down capability essential when working from high-output generator systems.
Walther’s hand truck-mounted Power Distribution Systems (PDS) combine mobility with integrated step-down transformation, making it easier to convert incoming generator supply into jobsite-ready output.
Options like the 682104TSPWU Hand Truck PDS and 682103ITWU Hand Truck PDS provide:
- Rugged, upright dolly-style frames for mobility
- Integrated overcurrent protection
- GFCI-protected receptacles
- Support for both single- and three-phase configurations
These systems are built for environments where temporary power needs to move — from one zone to another, and from one phase of a project to the next.

Supporting Temporary Infrastructure — Not Just Power Generation
Rental power doesn’t stop at generation. It must be:
- Safe
- Scalable
- Adaptable to mixed loads
- Ready for real-world deployment
From construction staging and campus maintenance to training facilities and event operations, properly structured distribution ensures generator power becomes usable power.
Walther solutions help rental fleets deliver more than watts — they deliver organized, protected, jobsite-ready distribution designed for repeat deployment.
