Project Types |

Projects include industrial facilities, commercial buildings, medical complexes, educational facilities, laboratories and government facilities. KJWW also does master planning for universities and hospitals, to determine how electrical systems can be expanded to serve growth and made safe in case of a malfunction. Forensic studies are completed to determine electrical disturbances, power quality issues and the cause of fires. We analyze primary and secondary distribution, and evaluate short circuit withstand capabilities, over-current coordination, and load flow.

 

Systems | 

KJWW is responsible for the design of all electrical systems within a facility. Typical systems include:

  • Power Distribution—both primary and secondary distribution
  • Power generation including co-generation and standby systems
  • Lighting design and control, including both interior and exterior lighting
  • Power conditioning and un-interruptible power supplies
  • Telecommunications
  • Security and surveillance
  • Fire alarm
  • Programmable controllers
  • Nurse Call
  • Lighting protection

 

Training |

Engineers at KJWW complete a formal education program shortly after starting with the company. The training program is conducted by fellow electrical engineers and other department personnel to instruct new engineers on design methods, technical considerations, company procedures and services. Each new engineer receives a design manual to use as a future reference. All entry- level engineers are assigned to a more experienced engineer for on-the-job training. Training continues throughout the engineer's career at KJWW. In-house seminars cover new products, design procedures and project management. Electrical engineers attend professional seminars and are encouraged to be active in technical societies.
