MT. SINAI – EMERGENCY POWER EXPANSION
As a Prime Contractor on this project, our scope included all electrical and general construction work required to furnish and install two new 1500kW generators, complete with Zenith automatic synchronization switchgear, ten automatic transfer switches and a new 20,000-gallon fuel oil tank. This equipment was installed in a fully functional hospital and research facility without disruption of day to day operations. The power distribution from the generator consists of the installation of over 15,000 feet of 3 ½” conduit and 50,000 feet of cable from the third sub-basement generator room to the main service room on the 9th floor and a conduit system up to the 27th floor.
Due to space restrictions, the generators and 3,000 ampere transfer switch had to be disassembled and reassembled. The vertical risers required the use of a bosum’s chair for access into the available riser space. The project was completed in approximately 10 months from start to finish.

COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY – EMERGENCY POWER
Design/build, including all electrical and mechanical aspects, of auxiliary generation network for seventeen buildings. Field engineering, scheduling, coordination, and installation of fire alarm and emergency lighting systems in thirty functioning buildings.
E-J Electric was awarded a design/build contract to provide emergency power to seventeen buildings throughout the Columbia University Complex, after offering an alternative design to meet the University’s budgets. E-J changed the original concept from central generators to remote package units, drastically cutting down on power distribution and mechanical costs while maintaining the integrity of this critical system.
The other major aspect of this contract was fire alarm upgrades or replacements in over thirty buildings. Certain buildings received totally new systems, some buildings received elevator recall systems, but almost all required power feed modifications to bring the systems into code compliance.
Throughout this project, critical aspects such as landmark status, asbestos, usage (school, theatre, etc…) and installation noise had to be considered. E-J was also involved with the filing of the project with the DOB, Fire Department and Bureau of Electrical Control, as well as other mechanical and electrical code related issues.
