PARTIAL ELECTRICAL OUTAGE - CLSL-A - DECEMBER 21ST FROM 6:00AM TO 12:00PM

TO ALL IN CLSL-A:

F&S will be conducting a PARTIAL ELECTRICAL OUTAGE affecting all CLSL buildings on Tuesday, December 21^st from 6:00AM to 12:00PM(Noon). This outage is needed to replace GFCI relays in the disconnect switches that feed MCCs in CLSL. The only effects of the outage that will be noticed in CLSL-A is that the domestic and lab water pressure will be reduced and the chilled water for the cold rooms will be shut down. F&S Refrigeration will be switching the condenser water supply from chilled water to potable water during the outage. The expectation is that this will allow the cold rooms to remain at their current temperatures but it was noted that the water pressure from the potable water may not be high enough to allow this on the upper floors of the building. As a precaution, it would be prudent to have alternative storage locations planned for any materials that would be particularly affected by temperature increases. Further information about this outage is listed below:
