Projects & Case Studies

Real work. Real results. A look at some of the generator, ATS, and switchgear projects we've completed for commercial, industrial, and government facilities across the region.

Hospital Emergency Generator Commissioning
Healthcare
Elizabeth City, NC

Hospital Emergency Generator Commissioning

Caterpillar C32 × 2 — Running in Parallel

Commissioned a 2 MW Caterpillar standby generator system for a regional hospital, ensuring full compliance with NFPA 110 life-safety requirements. Performed full load bank testing, transfer time calibration, and detailed documentation for the facility engineering team.

Scope of Work

  • Full startup and commissioning — 28 breaker switchgear
  • Load bank testing to rated capacity
  • ATS transfer time calibration — 14 units
  • NFPA 110 compliance documentation
  • Operator training and handoff

Result

System passed all acceptance tests on first run. Facility achieved full NFPA 110 compliance.

Multi-Generator Paralleling System Service
Industrial
Virginia Beach, VA

Multi-Generator Paralleling System Service

4.5 MW Paralleling System Upgrade

Performed comprehensive maintenance and load testing on a three-generator paralleling system at a large waste water facility. Diagnosed and repaired a synchronization fault that had prevented the system from operating at full capacity.

Scope of Work

  • Full paralleling system inspection
  • Synchronization fault diagnosis and repair
  • Load bank testing — all three units in parallel
  • Control panel calibration
  • Preventive maintenance on all three generators

Result

System restored to full 4.5 MW parallel capacity. Client enrolled in annual maintenance contract.

Military Installation ATS Inspection & Repair
Military
Joint Base Langley-Eustis, VA

Military Installation ATS Inspection & Repair

Eaton ATC-900 — Multiple ATS Units

Conducted a full inspection, testing, and repair program for multiple automatic transfer switches across a military installation. Several units had not been serviced in over five years and required contact replacement and control board recalibration.

Scope of Work

  • Full ATS inspection — all units
  • Contact resistance testing
  • Contact replacement on 4 units
  • Control board recalibration
  • Transfer time and voltage sensing verification
  • Detailed inspection reports for each unit

Result

All units restored to manufacturer specifications. Facility now on a bi-annual maintenance schedule.

Medium Voltage Switchgear Maintenance
Commercial
NATO Ballistic Missile Defense Base, Romania

Medium Voltage Switchgear Maintenance

Eaton VacClad-W — 15kV Switchgear

Performed scheduled maintenance on a 15kV medium voltage switchgear lineup at a large commercial office complex. Included infrared thermography scanning, bus bar inspection, circuit breaker testing, and arc flash hazard assessment.

Scope of Work

  • Infrared thermography scanning
  • Bus bar inspection and cleaning
  • Circuit breaker testing and lubrication
  • Arc flash hazard assessment
  • Insulation resistance testing
  • Full inspection report with photos

Result

Identified and corrected two high-resistance connections before they caused equipment damage or downtime.

Data Center Load Bank Testing
Critical Infrastructure
Cheyenne, WY

Data Center Load Bank Testing

16 × Caterpillar C175-20 @ 3 MW Each

Performed commissioning for a colocation data center to verify generator performance under full rated load. Testing revealed a cooling system issue that was corrected on-site, preventing a potential failure during a real outage.

Scope of Work

  • Full load bank test to rated capacity
  • Cooling system performance monitoring
  • Fuel consumption verification
  • Voltage and frequency stability testing
  • On-site cooling system repair
  • Test report and certification

Result

Cooling issue identified and repaired on-site. Generator certified for full rated capacity.

911 Call Center Generator Commissioning
Government
Chesapeake, VA

911 Call Center Generator Commissioning

2 × Caterpillar 3516 Standby Generators

Completed a complex startup and commissioning of a new state-of-the-art 911 call center and emergency disaster headquarters. With no technical support from the switchgear manufacturer, our team worked through every challenge independently — and delivered the project ahead of schedule.

Scope of Work

  • Startup and commissioning — 2 × Caterpillar 3516 standby generators
  • Full paralleling system commissioning
  • Independent troubleshooting with no manufacturer support
  • Transfer testing and ATS verification
  • Project completed ahead of schedule

Result

Generator restored to service in under 4 hours. Facility avoided extended downtime during utility outage.
