                          Director of Physical Plant


SUBJECT:      Electric Power Interruptions for UH, East Wing, East Tower, CWB, Weiskotten Hall Addition, Weiskotten Hall, NAB, Clark, CAB, and Jacobsen Hall. 4:00 am to 7:00 am Wednesday November 16, 2022.


DATE:            November 15, 2022


In order to allow National Grid to preform emergency repairs at one of their substations, one of our incoming feeders will need to be switched off line. We will be conducting switching to building feeds listed below between the hours of 4 am to 7 am. This will cause power losses from 1 to 10 seconds while we do switching. Emergency power circuits will see a loss similar to generator testing

***East Wing- Please use OR's 3, 5, and 8 prior to switching and until an all clear is given in the morning.  MRI #2 and CT #1 will also be impacted and should be shut down during switching.


This is what you can expect to happen starting at 4:00 a.m.

Weiskotten Hall Addition, Weiskotten Hall, Medical Library, and NAB; Some of the normal power circuits will lose power for 1-10 seconds while we conduct switching in the morning. Emergency power will see a loss similar to monthly generator testing. The elevators in WHA will also be affected during the times we transfer power.

Clark Hall, CAB, and Jacobsen; All normal power will see a loss for 1-10 seconds while we do switching.

UH, CWB, East Wing and East Tower; Will experience a loss of some of your normal power circuits for 1 to 10 seconds while we conduct switching. Emergency power circuits will see a loss similar to monthly generator testing.

Please turn down (low fan speed and warmer thermostat settings) all non-patient care/research window air conditioners and any other unnecessary administrative power users (computers, coffee pots, etc.) for the day.  This helps limit the amount of electrical loading that has to be switched and served by each building's alternate system.
Other buildings (Cancer Center, Setnor, Gama Knife, Silverman etc.) are not affected.
If you have any questions, please contact Aaron Petty, of Physical Plant, at 315-956-9056
