Electrical Service comes into the building through a 1600 Amp, 3-phase, 480Y/277 Volt main distribution switchboard which serves the mechanical, electrical and plumbing equipment. 30 kVA and 15 kVA transformers step the voltage down from the distribution panel to 208Y/120 Volts which serve the computers and emergency and kitchen equipment. A 300 kVA dry type transformer steps the voltage from the main distribution panel to the 1200 Amp, 3-phase, 208Y/120 Volt sub distribution switchboard. An 80 kW, 3-phase, 480Y/277 Volt generator supplies the emergency power to the building.
