Electrical Service Upgrade and Cogeneration System Modification. SSM electrical engineers designed the new 5 KV underground primary connection and medium voltage cables from the existing Met-Ed aerial line and pole to the Met-Ed Metering Section and Main Fused Switch of the new 5 KV Outdoor Switchgear. Designed the new 5 KV Outdoor Switchgear for installation along the outside southeast wall of the boiler and maintenance building. Designed the concrete pad for the switchgear. Designed the 5 KV medium voltage cable feeders from the new fused feeder switches to supply existing feeder cables and circuits. Re-circuiting of the existing cables will be in the existing electrical vault and possibly within the enclosure of the existing 4800 Volt Switchgear. Evaluated the overall loads of the facility 5 KV feeder circuits, the boiler plant, and the cogeneration based on the FSG data in order to determine the cogeneration spare capacity. Designed the modifications to the Cogeneration Power Distribution circuits and equipment to add an electrically motor operated circuit breakers in order to supply power during a utility outage.
