Project Details:
Together, CM Buck and ASCO Power Technologies ensured that Parkview Health is able to maintain patient well-being, comply with Joint Commission requirements and sustain operations with reliable power control and backup systems capable of powering life-safety and critical loads in the event of an emergency.
Solution Provided:
Along with our valued manufacturer partner, ASCO Power Technologies, we installed an ASCO Medium Voltage Power Control System that included three generator control sections, six power distribution section and a master control section. This system paralleled the hospital’s three existing 2-megawatt generators, connecting them to building loads through 32 ASCO 7000 Series 480-volt isolation-bypass automatic transfer switches, with ampacities of 200-2000 Amps. This two-part project began in 2012, when the hospital was constructed, and completed in early 2020 when we expanded their existing system to manage and additional 2-megawatt generator and meet the power needs of their new wing.
