MECHANICAL EI.ECTRI-CAl PL <br />CONSUdTING, INC: <br />A. Executive Summary: <br />A site investigation was performed at the subject property on October 12, 2018 to evaluate the <br />building electrical systems. Total building area is reported to be about 2,400 SF (previously <br />residential construction). <br />In general, the electrical distribution systems appear to be in a general state of disrepair. A <br />budget of approximately $45,000-$60,000 is recommended for controlled demolition of <br />electrical systems and deficiency corrections that should be implemented in the immediate <br />future. Optional cost to add electrical infrastructure for an elevator to provide access to the <br />second floor is estimated at $7,000. Cost of these implementations includes modern <br />construction practices. <br />B. Electrical Service: <br />1. This approximately 2,400SF building area has a 120/240 volt, single-phase, 3 - <br />wire service with a combined total of 125 amps of service disconnects, plus a 60 - <br />amp sub panel. This equates to an average capacity of about 13 watts per SF, <br />which is toward the lower end of the 15-20 watts per SF range typically provided <br />for commercial buildings. <br />2. The PG&E secondary facilities that serve this building were not able to be located <br />as part of the investigation. <br />Electrical hand hole <br />3. The electrical meter is located, on an exterior wall of the building. Underground <br />secondary enters the meter section from and undeterminable location. Meter <br />location is considered non -accessible due to vegetation. <br />
