J.F. White's Electrical team worked in concert with the
mechanical and civil teams to refurbish Walnut Hills Cosgrove
and Wachusett Intakes on the Wachusett Reservoir in the town
of Clinton, MA. The electrical team took part in renovating the
existing water treatment plant while limiting the number of
interruptions in service.
This work included: a 5kv switchgear modification,
cleaning and refurbishing two - 5kv turbine generators, the
installation of a complete fire alarm system, the installation of a
complete process instrumentation system, and provisions for
SCADA interface. Also the plant's electrical service was
increased from a 200 amp to a 400 amp service.
Having one contractor, J.F. White, providing all of these
specialized services benefitted our client because we could
easily and efficiently transition between work activities. A well coordinated
schedule was essential to keeping the Walnut Hill
Treatment Plant fully operational during construction.
