Supporting a live pharmaceutical research facility, we delivered generator and cabling solutions under extreme site constraints
The Problem
A Major Pharmaceutical Research Facility approached Pleavin Power after their incumbent generator provider was unable to support their switchgear upgrade and maintenance programme due to access and logistical challenges.
The generators, distribution, and cabling had to be delivered into central London with limited access from the road and height restrictions on site, all while the site was still operational.
The Solution
Pleavin Power provided and installed over 4KM of cabling and distribution systems to feed each individual distribution board on several different floors and basement levels, alongside 3x 550kVA machines running in sync with 24/7 monitoring and on-site support to allow the site to protect over £100 million of research and development resources.
The Results
The site was successfully returned to mains power following completion of switchgear works.
All temporary cabling, distribution, and generation equipment were removed and collected the same day.
Disruption to site operations and critical services was minimised.
All access, logistical, manpower, and technical challenges were effectively managed.
The client’s facility remained fully protected and operational throughout the process.
