The Challenge
AC/a faced the challenge of soils correction coupled with minimizing facility electrical outage, tight lot restrictions, and minimal interruptions to production throughout the project.
The Solution
The AC/a team developed full construction documents, specifications, and provided on-site construction coordination. Engineered a new 4,000 amp 277/480 volt 3 phase electrical service and provided back feeding for the current 1600 amp service. The electrical service outage to the facility was limited to less than eight hours.
