TODAY’S DATE:                   April 23, 2024



WORK PERFORMED ON:   May 4, 2024




In order to perform preventive maintenance on our Substation, one of our incoming National Grid feeders will be switched offline. We will be conducting switching to building feeds listed below between the hours of 5 am and 5:30 am. and again, later in the afternoon between 2:30 and 4:30pm. 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 both in the morning and again in the afternoon. Not all areas are affected in the afternoon.



 If switching cannot occur Saturday afternoon, we will conduct switching Sunday morning starting at 5:00 am.



***East Wing- Please use OR’s 4,6,7,9, and 13 prior to switching and until an all clear is given in the morning.



MRI #1 and Emergency Department CT #2 will also be impacted and should be shut down during switching.



Before any switching is done, we will walk the 5E OR’s, 3N OR’s and 6 West & South Heart & Vascular.



Telemetry monitors may also see a blip and a 1-2 min reboot, but no data will be lost.



This is what you can expect to happen starting at 5:00 a.m. and again sometime in the afternoon once work is complete. Not all areas will be impacted in the afternoon.



UH, CWB, East Wing and East Tower; Will experience a loss of some of your normal power circuits for 1 to10 seconds while we conduct switching. Emergency power circuits will see a loss similar to monthly generator testing. We will attempt to switch back in the afternoon once work is complete. If we cannot accomplish due to activities in the buildings, we will do switching Sunday morning at 5:00 am.


Weiskotten Hall, and Setnor: 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. You will see the same impacts in the afternoon when we switch back to normal operations.



Other buildings (Cancer Center, Setnor, Gama Knife, Silverman etc.) are not affected.
