This document discusses electrical reliability solutions for healthcare facilities from High Voltage Maintenance. It highlights that unreliable power can be detrimental for patient lives and finances. It offers customized maintenance programs to evaluate aging electrical equipment, ensure compliance with healthcare standards, and provide 24/7 emergency support. Services include condition assessments, testing technologies, and reliability-centered maintenance to increase system availability at reduced costs.
2. Your healthcare facility provides care and services
to many, but unreliable power quality or even the
shortest interruption can be detrimental to lives and
your bottom line. You can’t afford to neglect the
systems and components that comprise your main
electrical distribution system and emergency backup
systems. If you are like most healthcare facilities, you
know that much of your electrical infrastrucutre is aging
rapidly and can begin to raise the risk factor involved in
its continuous use. High Voltage Maintenance has the
experience necessary to assist you in getting the most
reliability and efficiency from your electrical assets and
ensuring the highest levels of availability and safety
surrounding your equipment.
Every healthcare facility is different – each has its own life safety requirements, power system configurations, emergency
power systems, and other specific maintenance requirements. The best way to maintain large facilities today is to design a
customized maintenance program that talks all equipment into consideration. It’s natural for electrical equipment to degrade
over time, but it doesn’t necessarily have to fail. Preventive Maintenance and Testing from High Voltage Maintenance will
evaluate the condition of your equipment and determine the most cost-effective and manageable solution to ensure its overall
performance, safety and reliability.
Designed Around Hospital Accreditation
As an integral part of the service team in healthcare facilities, we are very familiar with the standards and accreditation
requirement of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the American Hospital Association (AHA), and the Joint
Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (JCAHO). We make it our business to know the accreditation
requirements of state and local agencies and measure our success by your accreditation results. Project specific technical
inputs by a P.E. are used to document your accreditation requirements.
Cable Testing Technologies (not just OLPD)
Maintenance technologies are evolving quickly. Are you familiar with the medium voltage cable testing technologies that are
now available to perform condition assessment on your cables and associated equipment? Let our experts discuss the various
test techniques that can be used both on-line and off-line to evaluate the condition of your cables. Very Low Frequency, Tan
Delta, and Partial Discharge tests can be used to develop a comprehensive cable evaluation strategy and avoid unscheduled
outages and collateral damage of other electrical distribution equipment that result from cable failures. All testing is
performed in accordance with the IEEE 400 standards for cable testing.
Our experts can customize solutions that cater to
your needs, utilizing a variety of services aimed at
supporting your mission-critical goals. Our solutions
for healthcare facilities can help you:
„„ Increase system availability and efficiency
„„ Reduce overall costs
„„ Monitor asset reliability
„„ Ensure system integrity and 24/7/365 power to
critical systems
„„ Complete distribution system optimization
„„ Upgrade and extend the life of aging asset
3. Customized Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM)
RCM involves a comprehensive program that reduces unplanned
outages, indentifies problems before failure, involves training and
contingency planning, facilities accreditation, is cost effective and easy
to budget and complies with Insurance risk management programs.
Let us help you develop a customized program that fits your needs
and insures your compliance.
24-Hour Emergency Services
Despite the best maintenance plans, emergencies still occur.
As part of our comprehensive maintenance program, High
Voltage Maintenance ensures that single-line diagrams
are up-to-date, and that on-site personnel are trained to
troubleshoot in emergency situations. That’s why we are
available to you 24-hours a day, seven days a week.
