Summary: Throughout the three-story building, which includes medical-exam rooms and a student pharmacy, Berg crews installed energy-management systems, lighting controls and zone sensors to serve as ‘round-the-clock sentries. Berg professionals also worked closely with the design team of WRNS Studio (architect) and Silverman & Light (electrical engineer) regarding electrical requirements for occupancy control of all lighting, electronic medical records system, digital imaging and interactive kiosks that register students as they arrive at the Center for care.

In addition to installing a medium-voltage power system that will tie into the existing campus loop, Bergelectric crews were responsible for tel-data, intrusion, access control, paging, fire alarm, room status and A/V systems throughout the healthcare facility. Because of the limited laydown areas on the university site, electrical switchgear had to arrive on site for “just-in-time” installation, which reduced the requirement for materials storage. Further advancing the efficiency of the worksite is the partnership Berg has developed with Crescent Electrical Supply, which is able to drop-ship materials directly to prefabrication and to the UC Davis site as it is needed.
