The emergency power for the building life safety systems and the ECC is provided from a 125kW emergency generator. A facility condition assessment identified the existing emergency generator as undersized and recommended replacement to a larger generator. The existing concept design calls for installation of a new 1000kW emergency generator to serve the building life safety systems and elevators. The existing generator is to be retained as the primary standby source for the ECC. This project is to design, construct, and commission a new 1500kW emergency generator to supply electrical power to Building 31 life safety systems and elevators, and to provide capacity for future loads. Future loads may be for life safety systems and/or non-life safety systems. The existing generator is to serve as the primary standby source for the ECC. NIH will provide the existing concept design as bridging documents with project requirements modified as per the scope stated herein. The Project also includes coordination work with other completed or on-going projects and ancillary work as follows: Server Room Project - provide emergency power from new emergency generator in lieu of existing portable generator quick connect; coordinate placement of new equipment with existing electrical equipment; retain access to existing exterior dry coolers and pump packages for the Server Room. Fire Alarm System Upgrade - provide emergency power from new emergency generator to Fire Alarm system/panels, including the display of emergency power system status to/on Fire Alarm system/panels. Main Transformers and Switchgears Upgrade - coordinate placement of new equipment and associated common work; coordinate the concurrent/phased construction work. Campus SCADA System - provide display of Building 31 emergency power system status on the Campus SCADA terminals in Building 11. Hazardous Material - provide asbestos and lead sampling, testing, and abatement as necessary to perform the work.
