Owner: UPS Completion: 2009 Scope: This project consisted of numerous electrical construction areas. AES installed two new 4000 amp high-voltage primary switch gear units and interconnected the two units with buss duct in the UPS Utility Room, doubling their capacity. AES pulled in more than 4000’ of (3)c 750 HV Cable in Utility Tunnels and installed new HV Duct Banks. We also installed (18) 4000 amp double-ended switch gear substations and more than 100 lighting and power panels. Value: $17,000,000
