Electrical Proposal: Existing System Overview • Radial system to distribute power from the utility • 13.2 KV stepped down to 480/277V by (2) 2500kVA transformers by CNBC owned substation unit • Transformers feed a 4000A switchboard in the basement of the CNBC building • Backed by generator set of (2) 2,000 kW, 480Y/277V each • Technical equipment backed by (2) power-tied 1000kVA static UPS with 13 minute battery back-up
Electrical Proposal: • Compare reliability between a static UPS and a rotary UPS • Add another 2000kW Generator to pick up load dropped by pre-programmed ATSs
Electrical Proposal: UPS Reliability Study (Static vs. Rotary) • Performance analysis • Reliability • Maintenance • Impact on mechanical loads • Cooling • Exhaust • Cost Comparison
Electrical Proposal: Generator Addition • Original Design Intent: • (2) Paralleling 2000kW generators, where (1) 2000kW can carry full load of the building • Actual Power Consumption: • 2,964 kW (From Energy Utility Data) • Results in almost 1000kW of load to be dropped by ATSs • Solution: • Add a third generator to pick up the loads dropped
