Configured Switchboard
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
Collaborated with the city, facility officials and Dominion Power to calculate the highest demand on the building’s power system in order to modify the existing emergency power distribution system
The existing main distribution switchboard and panels were reconfigured to introduce load-sharing, where emergency loads served by the existing 475 kW emergency generator would be efficiently prioritized
