Subject: Planned Electrical Outage March 14-15, 2014
Importance: High

On January 12, 2014, lightning struck one of the utility poles for the Cougar 2 primary feeder which caused a power blip in half of the buildings on campus.  The university plans to schedule a planned electrical outage for March 14-15, 2014 to make necessary repairs to the electrical distribution system, as well as complete necessary preventative testing to the distribution system. During these two days, building occupants can expect three power outages of one hour each during building load transfers - tentatively occurring Friday morning, Friday evening, and Saturday morning.

As soon as we know more definitive details, we will notify building coordinators.

We wanted to alert building coordinators to this planned electrical outage as soon as possible so appropriate planning steps could be taken for each building.  Facilities Management will work with you to coordinate special emergency power needs for your facility's selective labs or equipment.

How you can help --


 1.  Share this information with all building occupants as soon as possible and ascertain their emergency power backup needs during the repair and outage period (i.e. generators, other emergency power needs, etc.).



 1.  Report the emergency power needs of your building occupants to Karl Keilbach, Electrical Supervisor, kkeilbac at Central.UH.EDU<mailto:kkeilbac at Central.UH.EDU>, 3-5606, and the Facilities Service Center, csc at central.uh.edu<mailto:csc at central.uh.edu>, 3-4948, by no later than Friday, February 7, 2014.




Thank you.
