This document is meant to give a brief comprehensive description of the campus systems and call out additional specific campus requirements that exceed standard commercial construction specifications and code requirements. These standards are in addition to industry engineering standards and code requirements. This document will point out code requirements that, historically, have been overlooked causing substantial additional project costs and/or compromise to project merit. UMass Utilities Department has found these specifics to be very beneficial and cost effective by substantially increasing reliability and minimizing the effects of power outages to our campus community. Any deviation from this standard or any part thereof must include a written comparative economic review by the project electrical designer. UMass Amherst Utility Department will review and make recommendations to the Director of the Physical Plant. The project will not proceed without written approval by the UMass Amherst Physical Plant Director.

The campus takes service at 13.8 kV from the utility via two paralleled feeds on the Westside of campus and at this time generates 10MWs at 13.8 kV with future additional generation planned. From the Westside Bus the primary selective system is distributed throughout campus and is stepped down at each building to service voltage utilizing 13.8 kV delta to 480/277 and/or 208/120 grounded wye. The Westside Bus also serves two 13.8 kV radial feeds; each of these radial feeds feed one of two separate buses at the Eastside sub-station. The Eastside sub-station is comprised of two separate buses with a normally open bus tie. Each bus is automatically backed up by separate utility feeds. The Eastside Sub-station distributes additional primary selective circuitry to buildings located on the East side of campus. The campus 2.4 kV open loop system is derived from the campus 13.8 kV system. This system has three sub-stations; one sub-station is fed directly from the Westside Service, one is fed from, and located at, the Eastside sub-station and the third, also fed from Eastside, is located more central on campus. From these sub-stations the open loop system is distributed throughout campus and is stepped down at each building to service voltage utilizing 2.4 kV delta to 480/277 and/or 208/120 grounded wye building service voltage. System Type and Approval The 13.8 kV electrical distribution systems have either manual or automatic switches located at each building served. The 2.4 kV open loop system switches are all manual with one exception; the switch located at the University Health Services building. Building service configuration is assessed at time of design to best serve the individual building and the campus overall operation. Final acceptance regarding system voltage, configuration and point of connection to the UMass Amherst Electrical Distribution system will only be with the approval of the Director of the Physical Plant.
