Electrical Service & System

An extensive work plan has been compiled to complete the electrical system.  Following are the various files that comprise this system.

Electrical System Design Overview:  The electrical system is designed as a pyramid, or cascade system.  There will be a number of panels and sub-panels in the system.  In addition, service control and monitoring will be included.  This will be incorporated into the overall control system for the entire compound.

Work Items List:  This document lists the steps and activities required to complete the electrical plan design and installation.

Electrical Work Items


Commercial Service Feed Sizing:  When a new home is constructed, an electrical plan must be developed in order to determine the approximate amount of electricity that will be required from the electric company that serves the home.  The "size" of the service, how to calculate the demand, and all other requirements for electrical service and wiring are contained in the "National Electric Code".  Got insomnia?  Read that book!!!  OR should I say, TRY to read that book.  Nothing better than trying to decipher bureaucratic red tape!!  But, when all is said and done, it does make sure that the structure is safe from electrical danger. Based on the calculations and assumptions, the service ordered from the power company will be 120/240V, 200A, 1-Phase.

Commercial Service Sizing


Stand-by Generator Sizing:  The commercial  electric power service is all aerial cable. Based on that fact, the probability of electrical outages during the winter is significant.  So we will be installing a standby electrical generator to operate some basic necessities during any such outage.  The generator sizing worksheet is based on the values of the overall requirements calculations.
