System Descriptions
Electric Power Distribution and Area Service
Power Systems
• Power to all the ACU fans, supply and exhaust, is provided from existing motor control centers MCC-A1 and MCC-A2, located in the Mezzanine “A” mechanical room. Both MCC-
A1 and MCC-A2 are rated 600A, 480V, 3-Phase (3Φ), 3-wire and are fed from Switchgear
101-A1. The partial One Line diagram is shown on drawing E-600.
o Some of the loads, mostly the exhaust fans, for this project, will remain at the current level. For these units, the extent of the work is to replace the motor controllers and disconnects with a single circuit breaker to feed the new VFDs.
o Five of the six supply fans for these units will increase in size. For these units, the extent of the work is to replace the motor controllers and disconnects with a single circuit breaker to feed the new VFDs. The multi-branch circuits will also be replaced to accommodate the increases in motors’ size. The details are shown on the project documents.
• The new ACUs and fans will be controlled by VFDs.
• Adjustments to the motor control centers MCC-A1 and MCC-A2, will be made to accommodate the new VFDs. The existing motor starters and disconnect units will be replaced with new modules and circuit breakers (CBs), which will feed the new VFDs. There is an increase in connected loads for each motor control center; roughly, 20HP for MCC-A1 and 10HP for MCC-A2.
• Load calculations are provided on drawing E-601, to evaluate the spare capacity in each motor control center; the existing load data is the basis for the calculations.
• Details of modifications and connections to VFDs are described on the project documents.
