Exceptional Electric Reliability at the Rochester Technology Park
Power at Rochester Technology Park
Redundant electric distribution systems at the Rochester Technology Park provide exceptional reliability for occupants. The site is located adjacent to two 115kV transmission circuits and has experienced only one short-term outage in over 20 years.
Multiple 115kV to 12kV transformers are located in a substation owned by Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation at the site. Existing transformer capacity exceeds 84 MVA and provides ample power for site expansion. From the substation, redundant primary voltage undergound feeders supply most buildings.
Most buildings have redundant building transformers and switchgear to provide 480/277 volt, 3ph, 4w service for motor, process, building HVAC, and general lighting loads. Emergency generators provide standby generation for egress lighting, fire alarms, security and communications systems.
Power distribution panels nominally rated at 600 amps are used for general power distribution. A small number of Buss Ducts are located throughout the complex.
Lighting distribution panels nominally rated at 600 amps are used for general lighting.
120/208 volt 3ph, 4w distribution systems provide power for outlets and receptacles utilizing transformers and panels throughout the complex. Many of the systems have been upgraded with K-rated transformers to control harmonics.
