12/20/22 Campus Planned Power Testing

Begin:  Tuesday, December 20th, 2022, at 7:00 am

End:      Tuesday, December 20th, 2022, at 3:30 pm

Building(s) or Area(s) Affected:  Campus Wide

Scope:  Utilities and Energy (U&E) will start testing Island mode quarterly instead of annually. This emergency power system requires extensive service more often and complies with our service agreement with the turbine manufacturer. These tests will be during Spring break, Summer break, the annual September power testing, and Winter break. The next test will be December 20th, 2022. Most likely we will enter island mode throughout the day for testing with no exact timeframe.

Services Impacted:  This is a seamless power transition and we do not expect any impacts to campus power.

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.
