PalMs of Pasadena hosPiTal
Location: St. Petersburg Florida
Project: Palms of Pasadena Hospital EPSS Upgrade
HCA finalized the acquisition of Palms of Pasadena Hospital on
October 1st, 2013. During HCA’s building audit, it was determined
that the existing power distribution did not meet HCA standards
and required an entire power upgrade and replacement. As a
partner with HCA, Miller Electric was brought on board to provide
the seventeen month undertaking to upgrade the existing power
distribution systems.
During the project, Miller Electric would need to keep the hospital
up and running; maintaining both the hospital’s patient care and
building operations. Working alongside Florida Power & Light, we
completed the installation of a new 2000KVA utility transformer
which replaced the existing 750KVA transformer. A new two story
building was erected to make room for two 600KW generators
and several power distribution systems.
Miller Electric, in conjunction with several subcontractors, installed
fire alarm, fire protection, energy monitoring systems, mechanical
systems, fuel systems, and self-performing electrical systems
under critical conditions.
