Biogen RTP Electrical Infrastructure Upgrade | Research Triangle Park, NC

Critical electrical infrastructure upgrade to provide the Owner with electrical capacity and “2N” redundancy. The project consisted of constructing a new three-story electrical building to house the new electrical equipment. A new 15kVA substation supplies the redundant feeds to the new electrical building. Power is then distributed back out to the multitude of office and manufacturing buildings throughout the campus via new and existing utility pipe racks. Each building’s substation was re-fed to the new electrical system. For the new and old equipment to talk, a custom automation integration of the switchgear controls to the existing SCADA system was supplied to reduce the overlap with existing facility control equipment. All work was completed without any unplanned outages to office space and manufacturing.
