Electrical design includes modification of existing electric services, sizing transformers, switchgear, panelboards, preparing single line diagrams, wiring diagrams, construction plans, lighting layout plans, conduit and wiring schedules, panelboard schedules, luminaire schedules, specifications, and construction cost estimate. The design is in accordance to building codes and NEC. AEA prepared voltage drop calculations, determined conduit sized and routing, determining cable sizes, over current protection devices, transformers, and electrical load calculations. AEA performed utility coordination to modify existing electrical services and to obtain a dedicated new electric service for a proposed fire pump. The fire pump will also have a dedicated emergency diesel generator. AEA coordinated with architect, civil, HVAC, and plumbing disciplines as required. The electrical design is performed in accordance NJTA design standards, National Electrical Code, and other applicable industry standards to meet the NJTA and DCA requirements.
