To: Engineering Building Users
From: Sarah Abdellatif, Substation A Communication Specialist/Program Analyst
Please be advised that Planning, Design & Construction will be performing a project that may impact you. Below are the details of the scope of work and anticipated impacts:
Scope of Work: Replace panel breakers downstream of the transformer located in room 118A.
Reason for Project: Work associated with the Electrical Infrastructure Upgrades project in support of current campus needs and future growth.
Anticipated Impacts: In order to replace the panel breakers safely, a planned electrical outage for the first floor is required. There will be periodic construction personnel traffic in and around the building throughout the entire duration of the work.
The outage will entail a temporary loss of power for rooms on the first floor of the Engineering Building including rooms 101A, 101B, 101C, 101D, 101E, 101ES, 101F, 101G, 101H, 103, 103C, 105, 105A, 105B, 105C, 120, 122, 123, and 123A. The outage will affect systems such as heating and air, lighting, receptacle convenience power, card/access control, and more.
It is highly recommended that sensitive equipment unable to withstand an outage should be powered down the day before to avoid unanticipated impacts to the equipment. After each outage, users will be able to re-enter their space and confirm that power is restored and fully functional. Any issues should be promptly communicated to the project team using the contact information provided below.
**Please note that the building will be closed to the public throughout the outage window noted below. **
Start Time / Date: 06:00 AM, Tuesday, January 14, 2025
End Time / Date: 08:00 AM, Tuesday, January 14, 2025
