Replace Switchgear and Upgrade Main Electrical Feed at Lake Park Elementary School
With the emergence of technology, schools have greater needs for electrical power than they did many years ago. Upgrading the electrical feed and replacing switchgear (the wiring and devices that bring electrical power into a building) is necessary to adequately power older school buildings like Lake Park Elementary, which opened in 1966.
Switchgear brings a number of very important functions together in one package. It includes:
- Control devices that check and/or regulate the flow of power.
- Switching and interrupting devices that are used to turn power on or off.
- Metering devices that are used to measure the flow of electric power.
- Protective devices that are used to protect power service from interruption, and to prevent or limit damage to equipment.
