Generator Maintenance Program

Breadcrumb
  • What is the program?

    Since January 2023, in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 110), we have been conducting monthly tests of the emergency system, which includes emergency generators and Automatic Transfer Switches (ATS). Reference NFPA 110— Standards for Emergency and Standby Power Systems. This EPS test, or Emergency Power Supply test, will simulate a power outage by using the test switches on the ATS.
