HEDCO Electrical Shutdown 8/31

Posted on by shenley

On Saturday, August 31, CPFM Utilities and Energy will be coordinating a contractor to work on the transformer that services HEDCO.  This will require a building-wide electrical shutdown.  The electrical shutdown will begin at 9:00 am and will last approximately 6 hours.  The crew will remain on-site one hour after energizing.

 

Scope of work. Crews will de-energize the transformer and drain out the oil so the oil sampling port can be replaced.  After that, the oil will be added and then monitored for leaks to let the air bubbles rise before crews can energize. Air bubbles in the oil can cause electrical arcing inside. Crews test the oil, so they can see how the transformer is doing and predict what maintenance can/should be done to extend the life of the transformer.

 

This work was pre-coordinated with Facilities Liaison Eric Owens.

Friendly 109 & 217 access work for future elevator project 8/10 – 8/11

Posted on by lpitts

Facilities Liaisons,

In order to facilitate the structural design of the new elevator scheduled to be constructed in summer 2020 in Friendly Hall, we need to cut an access hole in the ceiling of rooms 109 and 217. This work needs to be done before 8/13 to maintain the design schedule. I am trying to schedule an asbestos contractor to do this work. I am hoping to schedule this for the coming weekend 8/10 or 8/11.

These rooms will be usable when we are finished with this work. Some ceiling tiles will need to be replaced in conference room 109. I am working to determine if we have any stock on-site or if replacement tiles need to be ordered.

Pre-communication was sent to Cathy Soutar.

I apologize for the short notice but and appreciate your patience.
