PROBLEM: Much modified and unplanned electrical system Like many private clubs, LuLu Temple Country Club
in Southhampton, Pennsylvania had had many different people work on its
electrical system over the years. The result was a mishmash that didnĚt
meet current codes. A contractor doing some renovations at the clubhouse
was concerned with the situation.
SOLUTION: A completely integrated and expandable switchboard The contractor called in Penn Panel for a consultation
on ways to handle this problem. A complete replacement of the electrical
system was too costly for the club, so Penn Panel proposed a custom solution
that would attack the core of the problem. Over time the remaining issues
will be corrected.
Codes require that less than six hand motions be
required to shut down a facility in case of any emergency. Penn Panel
designed and provided a main device that could be shut down in one motion.
A custom enclosure in a non-standard size (80" wide, 80" high,
15" deep) was designed to be installed in two pieces to allow access
through a very tight space. And the entire project was completed in less
than a month to allow installation during the clubĚs shutdown period.
