CEG performed a detailed infrastructure system survey and developed a comprehensive building systems plan to provide additional electrical and mechanical capacity to a 40,000 square foot data center facility. Modifications were designed and integrated into an existing system architecture that included:

  • Diverse utility and service entrances (2000kVA, 2500kVA)
  • Two standby plants (1500kW, 3000kW) serving multiple transfer switchboards
  • PDU and RPP reconfiguration to support critical customer loads
  • Multiple power transitions to optimize power usage between services and systems
  • Redundant chiller plant installation consisting of 2000 tons of water cooled and air cooled chillers, along with reserve make up water tanks
  • Switchgear, generator and chiller plant controls upgrades to integrate existing and new equipment in a revised sequence of operation

Design documents included full sequencing of all installation requirements to allow full data center operation during construction.
