Electrical Maintenance & Testing

On behalf of the Condominium Corporation, the property management is advising all owners of the scheduled electrical maintenance for the common element electrical systems on the following date:

 

Monday June 29th - between 7:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

 

Kroon Electric perform annual inspections on the electrical systems that service the building and the last inspection completed in 2014 was an energized service where all electrical equipment was inspected and measured to determine the flow of electricity through the distribution system. In 2015, the electricians will be performing a de-energized service. This differs from 2014, because they must open the same electrical components, clean & tighten connections where needed, as well as apply lubrication. 

 

This maintenance can only be safely performed when the power in the building has been disconnected, therefore the whole building will experience a loss of electricity for approximately 2 hours during the day.

 

From that time onward, the electricians will re-energize the systems and selectively shut the power down in different areas of the building, for short periods of time. This will minimize the time that any one area in the building will be without power. The elevators are fed by the backup generator system; therefore they will still be operational during the periodic power shut down.

 

The purpose of this annual maintenance is to ensure that the electrical components for the common elements such as equipment and transformers are functioning properly to prevent damage and to extend the life of the electrical equipment.

 

We greatly appreciate your patience during this maintenance, should you have any questions please feel free to email the property manager prior to June 29th.
