Westphal & Co., Inc. served as lead contractor for all sub-trades in the completion of this 5kV underground electrical distribution loop system upgrade. Complicated shutdown scheduling to maintain complete campus functionality was integral to the success of this project. The entire campus was temporarily cut from power while the main service was upgraded, and multiple building shutdowns were carried out. This project included the installation of underground conduit, cabling, transformers, and custom medium-voltage switches
