Renovation of a medical facility in Lexington, Kentucky. Completed plans call for the renovation of a medical facility.

This project will upgrade the emergency power system in the Good Samaritan Hospital facility to a level required to properly support the current load requirements. The project will add a new interior 750 kilo-volt-ampere generator and connect in parallel with the existing two. In this configuration, two generators will support the facility. The third generator will be redundant and allow for routine maintenance without compromising the emergency operation of the hospital. The resulting design capacity will be 1800 ampere at 480 volts. This additional generator will be placed in the existing paint shop and two adjacent storage areas.
