Tenant improvements at Amazon’s HOU6 drone delivery site in Richmond, Texas: a new operations building, drone storage, launch and landing pads, and a covered drone battery charging area. We took the electrical scope from underground duct banks to an energized 480/277 V system, with transformers and distribution, a generator docking station for backup power, canopy and site lighting, and the complete low-voltage package.
Scope of work
- Underground PVC duct banks for power and communications, with EMT risers
- 480/277 V service tie-in, 400 A disconnects and copper-fed panelboards
- 75 kVA and 250 kVA transformers, motor starters and safety switches
- Drone battery charging area, backed by a 400 A generator docking station and manual transfer switch
- Canopy, wall-pack, LED and emergency lighting
- Low voltage: 24 CCTV cameras, 6 card readers, 48 data drops and 6 wireless access points
- Grounding, arc-flash study, megger and third-party testing, as-builts and closeout
