City of Grand Rapids Wastewater Treatment Plant :: Replacement of Electrical Switchgear and Transformer Upgrade

Grand Rapids, Michigan

Engineering

Story

Design Program:  Byce & Associates, Inc. provided mechanical, electrical and structural engineering services for the existing facility to provide a new front-end medium-voltage distribution switchgear, and replacement of the degraded medium-voltage primary cable. 

Design Challenges:  This project was unique because this plant processes approximately fifty million gallons of wastewater a day and must be kept operational at all times.  The construction activities required close coordination with the owner in order to prevent any interruption of service.
