Complete back-up power
solution for Busy Hospital
20
Overview
Challenge
A large hospital in the UK needed a
standby power solution to provide vital
back-up power for the facility in case of
a power failure. WB Power Services won
the contract to specify, design and install
two key substations, backed by standby
generation complete with mains generator
changeover, load bank connection point
and output LV switchgear.
WBPS took on the full design and project management of the site and
associated works. The main challenge was to marry all the different
elements requested into a seamless single solution. Additionally, the
generators were to be configured such that either generator could feed
the other package and, ultimately, the building. It was also important to
create minimal disruption within the busy hospital which continued to
function while the installation was carried out.
WBPS project managers liaised closely with the hospital staff to
gather specific onsite knowledge. The company was also responsible
for control and management of the site area, Health and Safety, staff
inductions, welfare facilities, site security and all temporary services.
