These faults arc "Brownouts" and "Spikes" from the electric utility provider and cause equipment and electronics to be damaged. Since the problem is from the utility, we have explored options that protect the entire house electrical. Because the electrical service for the house is large and single phase, it makes equipment difficult to find availability and price. The following are 3 options we obtained information on. Option 1 - Two Voltage conditioners 240 volt, 200 KVA Estimated Price $103,000.00 Voltage Conditioners 2 x $28,000.00 = $56,000.00 Freight $ 2,000.00 Engineering $ 5,000.00 Wire, Conduit, Crane $10,000.00 Labor Installation $30,000.00 Option 2 — Two Voltage Regulators 240 Volt, 200 KVA Estimated Price $117,000.00 Voltage Regulators 2 x 35,000.00 = $70,000.00 Freight $ 2,000.00 Engineering $ 5,000.00 Wire, Conduit, Crane $10,000.00 Labor Installation $30,000.00 Option 5 - Two UPS 240 Volt, 200 KVA Estimated Price $450,000.00 UPS 2 x 200,000.00 = $400,000.00 Freight $ 2,000.00 Engineering $ 5,000.00 Wire, Conduit, Crane $10,000.00 Labor Installation $33,000.00 from a local Please note that these prices arc budget numbers and not a fixed quote. Pricing was obtained equipment. I hope this information is helpful. I am also attaching a brochure supplier in the research of this and a simple riser diagram to help explain this information.

It offers tight output regulation, robust design and Options offer more features and functionality easy customization. Extremely high overload/inrush rating In today's world, the cost of electrical power and its Very low cost of ownership due to efficiency and quality have become major operating concerns.The virtually maintenance-free operation continuing increase in the cost of electrical power Trouble-free operation with no active devices in power path has heightened interest in energy savings, and poor 1% or better output voltage regulation power quality has been identified as a cause of expensive malfunctions and shutdowns in new high Continuous voltage regulation—not crude step regulation technology equipment. Redundant manual regulation control Voltage regulation problems account for more than (raise/lower switch) 90% of the power problems seen at most sites. The Individual coil protection—avoid catastrophic cascade failures Staco Energy's base Automatic Voltage Regulator Gold plated contacts on all coils (AVR) provides protection against all but the most extreme voltage swings. When additional non-voltage Nickel plated copper bus bar issues occur, Staco Energy offers a series of options Easy, front panel access for service/installation that address such issues as high voltage transients, high harmonic content and site load balance. This No waveform distortion—no harmonics added integrated and targeted approach provides site- Small footprint specific power correction in a one-box solution. Able to withstand the continuous vibration of mobile applications Warranty The industry leading three-year warranty is our guarantee that Staco Energyoffers the toughest, most robust Voltage Regulation System on the market today. atE?
