Scope:  As part of the University of Oregon’s electrical safety program, CPFM is performing an Electrical Arc Flash Study of the electrical distribution system within the building. As part of the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70E requires that an arc flash risk assessment be performed in order to identify arc flash hazards and estimate the likelihood of an injury occurring. To complete this study, data must be collected from electrical equipment that is not readily visible from the outside of the equipment. To comply with NFPA 70E and OSHA guidelines, the electrical equipment must be de-energized to complete this work. Please see the schedule below for dates and times.

  • The outages in Oregon Hall and Frohnmayer Music would not be throughout the entire building but in select areas.

Special Instructions:  Please shut down and unplug all multi-function copier devices as well as any printers during scheduled power outages. The software on these machines can be negatively affected due to the power surge when the power is turned back on.  A power surge can corrupt the clone files in the machines and change preconfigured settings.

Contact:  For questions or concerns, please reach out to either Dale Stadler, CPFM D&C Project Electrical Engineer, 541-514-6277 or Rob Berg, CPFM Facilities Electrical Supervisor, 541-346-2313.
