Replace 5kV Switchgear

Jesse Brown VA Medical Center, Illinois

Project Cost: $937,736

Completion: 2011

Contract Method: Firm Fixed Price

This project involved the removal and replacement of two existing 5kV switchgears at the Jesse Brown VAMC. A new brick building was provided to enclose one of the new switchgear lineups. Existing conduits and wiring were intercepted and rerouted to the new switchgears. Temporary power was provided during outages so the hospital never lost critical power.
