C1da--Upgrade Emergency Power Distribution Design

emergency power distribution includes all power distribution that has generator back-up. B. The Architect/Engineer (A/E) is to provide a complete design for Project 608-21-208, Upgrade Emergency Power Distribution. The intent of the project is to correct deficiencies and provide a system that can support future growth for the portion of the emergency power distribution system from the generators through the initial distribution panels downstream of the automatic transfer switches. C. Overview of Existing Conditions: Buildings 2, 3, 4, 5, 13, and 14 are planned to be demolished and are not included in this project s scope. Building 1 (190,000 sf, built 1949) is the original main medical center building. All electrical distribution for Building 1 originates in Building 20, which is connected to the basement of Building 1. Above-ceiling space in the basement corridors of Building 1 is very limited and it s becoming difficult to access Building 20 for new power feeds. Building 6 (3,500 sf, built 1949) is an office building. The emergency power distribution for Building 6 originates in Building 7. Building 7 (13,000 sf, built 1949) contains the boiler plant, garage, and generator room. Three fairly new emergency generators and paralleling switch gear, in use since December 2018, are located in this building. These generators supply emergency power for Buildings 1, 6, 7, 18, and 20. Building 15 (72,000 sf, built 1978) contains the Community Living Center, which is the only overnight care provided on the campus. It also contains other medical clinics and is connected to Building 1. Building 15 has its own generator, installed in 2005 and located in a courtyard outside of the building. Building 15 also has dedicated automatic transfer switches and subsequent distribution. Building 18 (12,000 sf, built 1978) contains a Primary Care Clinic and is connected to Building 1. Building 18 has dedicated automatic transfer switches and subsequent distribution. Building 20 (2,500 sf, built 1975) contains the electrical distribution for Building 1.
