Generator load bank testing schedule 

The regulatory Annual Load Bank Emergency Generator tests will take place in buildings across campus starting on September 12, 2022, until November 1, 2022. Please refer to the testing schedule for more details.

There may be power interruptions on emergency backup power circuits during the test run. Please note that:

  • There won’t be any backup generator available for the duration of the test (approx 3 hours). In the event of a power outage, it will take up to 30 minutes to reconnect the generator and bring it back to its full operation.
  • Noise and exhaust fumes will occur during the two-hour generator test run.
  • There will be contractor and tradespeople and vehicles from Facilities working inside and outside of the building.
  • The contractor’s portable load bank will be parked on site. Temporary cables and other installations on-site may cause potential trip hazards and access issues.

For questions and concerns, please contact your facilities manager.
