electric door locks

SMNCP DOOR LOCK 185 

Updated Today

REPORT:
Door 185 SMNCP does not lock with the schedule

ACTION:
Override 1st Floor North Wing Vestibule C1.2A as a guess.  No response.
General Override with the schedule = all doors lock.


Notice all doors lock but the West Wing
So I do a "global unlock" and then specifically lock "West Wing"
that responds just fine


FINDING:
"West Wing" door lock not responding to global command.
"West Wing" door lock is responsive to Delta system

RECOMMEND:
Have Erik check the programming since the door lock is responsive but apparently not connected.
I would like to have one day of training in this part of the process so that I can take further troubleshooting steps.

Swap CB at PE photovoltaics

The circuit breaker that powers inverter #2 at PE Solar has been a source of nuisance tripping for some time.  The question is whether the intermittent fault is in the load [inverter assembly and beyond into the field] or is it on the utility side [starting with the circuit breaker]  To this end we swapped out the CB for inverter #2 with the "known good" CB for inverter #1.  Follow up and see in the next interval of time.  

These inverters can produce up to $60,000 per year.
Having even one inverter down for any period of time is a true opportunity cost.

Austin Cntr 105 Electrical hazard resolved


Austin report if sparks KTD FD called




It appears when the room was remodeled with new carpet 

 the carpet installer Apparently removed  the floor receptacle and tucked the wires into the junction box never adequately securing Them or restoring the cover to the hole in the floor

Upon inspection here though I find the further problem to be the lack of two stage lighting in the room

 it is a smart classroom and needs to have a low medium and high capability 

Also permanently installed power strips on the wall should not be cord and plug connected. Recommend hard pipe to power duct
