STANDBY POWER:
Each tower is provided with a standby diesel generator. Each generator has 950 kVA capacity. The generators are arranged such that upon failure of the Energy Australia supply, they start and load automatically.

The main purpose of the generators is to provide back up power to the buildings essential services. This includes all common area lighting, essential ventilation and equipment, pumping equipment and single lift in each rise.

A section of the tenant distribution board is supplied from the house riser by means of changeover contactors. This enables the standby power to be reticulated to the tenant’s pre-arranged loads. Any connection to this standby power is on load shed and cannot be guaranteed. All connections must be discussed and approved by Building Management.
