About this file
This is a Submittal Coversheet and Final Electrical Assessment Report for Hangar 32 at the NOAA Western Regional Center in Seattle, Washington, prepared by Ahtna Engineering Services, LLC as the contractor with McKinstry as the subcontractor.
The project, titled "Hangers 32 and 33 Demolition, Renovation, and Safety Improvements" (Contract Number AB-133W-15-CQ-058, NAAJ5744-20-00581), involves comprehensive electrical system evaluation and remediation of a 1930s-era hangar built for the Navy. The assessment identifies extensive electrical deficiencies including equipment exceeding forty years of service life, improper installations violating the National Electrical Code, abandoned equipment, and hazardous building materials (asbestos and lead paint). Key findings include a 1600-amp Siemens main switchboard installed in 1991 serving both hangars via a 300kVA transformer, multiple original and deteriorated distribution panels scattered throughout the structure in stairwells, and lighting systems requiring modernization. The report recommends complete removal of electrical equipment in the Lean-To sections and stairwells to enable proper abatement, with replacement featuring new 400-amp and 225-amp distribution panels, 75kVA transformers, LED lighting with occupancy sensors, and seismic support systems. McKinstry provided a Rough Order of Magnitude electrical budget of $1,954,589 (at $19.30 per square foot) covering all demolition, service and distribution upgrades, convenience power, interior and exterior lighting, and lighting controls for the 101,300-square-foot building. The submittal was distributed to Ray Hermes (NOAA Contracting Officer Representative) and Tania Gates (NOAA Contracting Officer), with NOAA comments 1-8 incorporated into the final assessment dated April 6, 2021.

Project Explanation and Electrical Summary Exclusions:
The NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) Western Regional Center located at
Seattle has on its property Hangars 32 and 33 (Image #1). These hangars were built for the Navy in the mid-1930’s before United State’s involvement in World War II. Currently these hangars house several operations, namely: office, storage, and small-scale net assembly. Also, Hangar 32 includes PMEL buoy and Seafood Inspection operations.
Image #1 – NOAA WRC Site Map
NOAA has expressed an interest in renovating the hangars to bring them up to current building and electrical codes (National Electrical Code 2020, Washington Administrative Code 296-46B, Seattle
Energy Code 2018, and International Building Code 2018). Within the building is hazardous building materials (i.e., asbestos, lead paint, etc.) and electrical equipment that is well beyond its life expectancy, installed incorrectly, or is abandoned. Electrical projects have occurred since the
1990’s that replaced some of the aging gear. Most of that equipment will either remain in-place, removed due to being abandoned, or be removed due to renovating occurring in spaces they exist.
The subject of this document is the evaluation of the electrical system in Hangar 32.
A good faith effort was made to investigate electrical features representing the majority of electrical circuits in the structure. It was not practical to investigate each switch, junction box, wiring devices and other electrical components due to unsafe electrical conditions, accessibility constraints, hidden conditions, shear number of devices, and overall presence of ACM and LBP throughout the structure.
This Assessment of Hangar 32 doesn’t include low voltage equipment – namely, I.T., data conduit, cable trays, Wi-Fi, security, access, data equipment and rooms, and data jacks. The assessment is restricted to all power conveying equipment, lighting fixtures, and lighting controls.
Electrical Equipment Summary:
Electrical Service Equipment: The service is comprised of a Seattle City Light 300kVA transformer with a secondary of 480Y/277 volts and is dedicated to Hangars 32 and 33 (Image #2). The service entrance conduits and cables are two paralleled 3-1/2” underground conduits with four
500MCM cables in each. The main service equipment consists of a 1600 amp switchboard installed in the Hangar 32 North “Lean-To.”
The 1600 amp Siemens main switchboard (Photo #1) was installed in 1991 with the main disconnect currently fused to 800 amps. The paralleled 500MCM cables are rated for 760 amps (2 x
380 amps). The switchboard contains seven circuit breakers with only two (400 amp each) in use
– one feeding Hangar 32 and the other feeding Hangar 33 as well as electrical equipment on the south wall of Hangar 32 (Images #3 & #4).

Image #4 - Hangar 33 Main Switchboard One-Line (From 1991)
The original (1930’s) basis for the load distribution was by feeding custom 120/240 volt single phase panel configurations (Image #5) located in each of the stairwells in the four corners of both hangars. Redesign and construction converted these to 120/208 volt single phase. Most of these original panel systems are either in full or partial operation and/or are used as pull boxes to down stream electrical equipment. Using a panel for a pullbox of unrelated equipment is not in violation of the National Electrical Code (NEC 312.8) as long as it remains under a percentage of total fill and is labelled with its use.
The panels are fed by underslab feeders. In a pullbox below the panels are multiple feeder taps to downstream panels in other stairwells. While some of the wiring in Photo #2 appears newer most of it dates back to the 1930’s.
IBC 1020.1 prohibits the use prohibits “exits” (stairways being one type) shall not be used for any other purpose than the “means of egress.” Under emergency/catastrophic conditions electrical equipment, except those that aid in the exiting of the building, can hamper egress.

The single 400 amp disconnect (in the Main Switchboard) for Hangar 32 feeds two feedthrough distribution panels – one feeding various sub panels while the other feeds the customs panel pictured above. Both distribution panels are original and still in use.
In addition to the new and existing electrical equipment on the south side of the Hangar 32 warehouse is a row of panels and transformers installed in 1991. These are fed by the 400 amp
480Y/277 volt Panel CB2 in the SW corner of the warehouse. (See Image #5)
Photo #4 - Hangar 32 South Re-Feed Photo #5 – Hangar 32 Panel CB2 (SW Corner)
Photo #4 illustrates how the overhead feeder to Hangar 33 is tapped below the weather-head and fed back into Hangar 32 to Panel CB2 (Photo #5). While this arrangement is unusual it’s not against the electrical code. However, this set of weather-heads can be confusing to someone trying to determine if these lines are going in or out of the building. To eliminate this confusion a sign legible from ground level explaining the configuration should be added. “FEEDER TO HANGAR
33” for instance.
There’s a considerable amount of abandoned-in-place equipment. This includes special outlets, disconnects, panels, conduits, junction boxes, etc. Some of the equipment has been repurposed as junction boxes. In addition, since the original construction, some equipment has been installed in an unworkman-like manner and against NEC 110.12.
There are two plywood office-type structures (one in the center of the Hangar 32 warehouse and the other in the south end) installed well after the original construction that will be removed as part of this process. These are both fed overhead from panels at either end of the warehouse. A third structure in the warehouse, the net construction building, shall remain “as-is,” as well as the wind tunnel, two freezers, parts room, crane, and paint booth.

Equipment (Center-North of Hangar 32 (SE Corner of Hangar 32)
The issues in Photo #6 are in violation of NEC 110.12 requiring a “neat and workmanlike” installation. The newer panel in Photo #7 is facing the wall, making access to the panel difficult and violating the code-required (NEC Article 110.26) space in front for an electrician to safely work on the equipment.
Hangars 32 Lighting Equipment:
The standard fixtures in the “Lean-To” spaces are 4’ wrap-arounds and 2’x4’ lay-in troffers (see
Photos #8 & #9). Most, if not all, of these fixtures have been installed in the past few decades to replace the original fixtures. Since then many have been retrofitted with LED lamps. Each area is controlled by a switch mounted near the door. In several areas maintenance has been neglected as these spaces are presently not in use (i.e., kitchen, some offices, storage spaces, etc.). No timing, occupancy sensing, or dimming devices are present in any of the spaces.

Hangar 32 warehouse areas are lit by 8’ industrial fixtures (Photo #10 blue arrow). Hangar 32 fixtures have been retrofitted with LED lamps and the spaces are equipped with motion detection.
The previous fixtures (same photo, red arrow) are still present but not in use. The lighting levels are acceptable for the tasks.
The main doors exterior fixtures (Picture #11) appear to be LED’s. Only two of the original five are existing and, upon closer inspection, appear to be attached haphazardly. Also, they are constantly on with no apparent method to switch off.

Analyses of the Existing Electrical & Lighting System:
It is standard engineering practice to consider replacing electrical equipment that is at least forty-years-old. By then circuit breakers have begun deteriorating in their efficiency, wiring and lug nut connections have gone through many cycles of heating and cooling – creating points of failure, exposed steel and copper parts have begun oxidizing, and grounding fails. All these can create unsafe conditions. Washington state code dictates that all unused wiring shall be removed from conduits.
The equipment that was installed in the 1990’s appears to be good operational order with no apparent damage or oxidation. However, not all of the new equipment was installed in a safe, workmanlike manner, or is code-compliant, as illustrated above.
The attached thermographic inspection states all of the equipment, except Panel PNL-HH on the northeast side of level 2, pose no heating threat. Under my recommendations below PNL-HH is to be removed as part of the abatement process.
Recommendations:
All of the electrical equipment mentioned above inside the Lean-To’s and stairwells shall be removed to allow these areas to be properly abated – excluding the main switchboard and the service feeders to it. Since under-slab feeders can be impossible to be removed from the conduits all of the power feeder conduits should be cut and capped at floor level and grouted to floor level.
Testing of all existing feeders to remain shall be conducted.
Within the warehouse all of the panels, disconnects, feeders, wiring, above-grade conduits, junction boxes, and special purpose outlets shall be removed. The new panels and transformers on the south end shall remain and service any new loads on the first and second floor of the south
Lean-To – including two new 100 amp 208Y/120 volt load centers installed on either end of the office/storage space.
At the center of the north wall of a 400 amp, 480Y/277 volt distribution panel shall be placed to support all equipment on the north end – including the Lean-To’s. This will include the power supply to the net construction building. A 75kVA transformer shall feed a 225 amp 208Y/120 volt panel. The 208Y/120 volt panel shall subfeed the two 100 amp load centers on either end of the office/storage space on the second floor – similar to the south end. All other expected 208Y/120 volt loads on the first floor shall be fed from the either the new 480Y/277 and 208Y/120 volt panels. The new and existing 400 amp panels shall also feed any forklift outlets to remain, the net construction building the wind tunnel, two freezers, parts room, paint booth, roll-up door bay doors.
It has yet to be determined where any new power outlets or heaters connections will be located.
Until these receptacle locations are determined use the following guidelines: In all office spaces locate one duplex receptacle every ten feet. In small storage spaces and hallways provide one duplex receptacle. In large storage spaces provide one every twenty feet. In all offices route an extra ¾” conduit from a new junction box for data mounted adjacent to the outlet up to wall and above the drop ceiling. Provide five ¾” conduits from above any new panel to the ceiling space above.
The new lighting in the Lean-To’s and stairwell shall use either 4’ LED strip fixtures or 2’x4’ LED troffers, depending on the nature of the installation. Egress lighting shall be either LED “bug-eyes” or standard fixtures with battery backup functionality. While the existing unused pendant fixtures in the warehouse should be removed, the warehouse LED strip fixtures with motion-detection can remain as this meets the current Seattle Energy Code (SEC) C405.2. However, the removal of the two-story structure in the center of the warehouse will mandate new fixtures.
Seattle Energy Code C405.2.1 dictates that occupancy sensors shall be included in all spaces present in the Lean-To’s. Utility rooms (electrical and mechanical) are excluded from this requirement. SEC C405.2.4.1 dictates daylight responsive controls that control dimming in spaces next to vertical fenestration with more than two fixtures in the two dimming zones.
Match the existing 8’ industrial fixtures with LED’s. In addition, provide seismic supports for all warehouse fixtures. The exterior fixtures over the hangar doors should be replaced and mounted correctly. Also required are battery backed up fixtures over all exterior egress doors (SEC
C405.2.5). Controls and maximum wattages for these areas shall be determined by the SEC
C405.4.2.
Additional Information:
The PMEL buoy and Seafood Inspection operations are to remain “as-is.”
During our initial site walk conversation expressing concern about the proximity of the small water tank in Photo #12 to the adjacent electrical equipment. National Electrical Code Article 110.26 describes the space about electrical equipment required to be kept clear for both the equipment and the people servicing it. In this case it is 30 inches wide and 36 inches deep. Article
110.26(E)(1)(a) states that nothing shall be above the electrical equipment considered a “foreign system” (i.e., water tanks, for instance) shall exist lower than 6 feet. Being next to electrical equipment doesn’t qualify as intruding into the electrical space. However, it is understandable that a piece of equipment as this in such close proximity to electrical gear would be disconcerting.
While it not required to be relocated NOAA can have it moved to a better location.

Final Observations and Recommendations:
1) The sum total of load change to the electrical service should be negative due to the removal of many structures, electrical equipment, and conversion of light fixtures LED. An extensive load study should be part of the design process to ensure there is plenty of available load on the service.
2) Grounding and bonding connectivity should be thoroughly adhered to as it is unclear if the existing equipment is currently complying.
Scope of Work:
Below is a scope of work by line item. It should be considered general instructions for the intention of removing and replacing the electrical equipment in Hangar 32.

INSPECTION STANDARDS
This report includes a complete listing of all equipment scanned, and visual documentation and analysis of all thermal anomalies discovered during the inspection.
For conditions reported, the following ratings system is used to establish a priority level for recommended action:
0: No abnormality No action
1: Low grade fault To be monitored – Plan new inspection within 90 days
2: Medium grade fault Repair at scheduled shutdown
3: Severe fault Repair immediately
All readings shown in this report reflect the conditions found at time of testing. Ambient air temperature, electrical load on equipment, and other environmental conditions can affect readings, so temperatures shown are estimates. The guidelines used to evaluate site conditions are as follows:
Circuit Breakers (per NETA 2006 Guidelines):
Temperature Difference based on comparison between similar components under similar loading
Temperature Difference based upon comparisons between component and ambient air temperatures Recommended Action
1˚C - 3˚C 1˚C - 10˚C Possible deficiency; warrants further investigation
4˚C - 15˚C 11˚C - 20˚C Indicates probable deficiency; repair as time permits
-- -- -- 21˚C - 40˚C Monitor until corrective measures can be accomplished
>15˚C >40˚C Major discrepancy; repair immediately
Microhm or millivolt drop values shall not exceed the high levels of the normal range as indicated in the manufacturer’s published data. If manufacturer’s data is not available, investigate any values which deviate from adjacent poles or similar breakers by more than 50 percent of the lowest value.
Transformers:
Check for unusual thermal imbalances between phase connection points, report to customer when identified
Disconnects:
Check for thermal imbalances in fuses, connection points, report imbalances to customer when identified
