EPR REQUIREMENTS (1 RCNY-§4000-01)

​
-
Any new installation of equipment totaling 1000kVA or higher.
-
Any change in an installation with a rating of 1000kVA or higher, up to and including the second level overcurrent protection, unless it was fully described and approved as "future” on the original approved plan
-
Any addition to an existing installation which would bring the total to 1000kVA or higher
-
A new installation or revised installation above 600V, irrespective of kVA rating.
-
The addition of any equipment in a room, which would affect clearances around the equipment of a 1000kVA installation.
EPR FILING PROCESS
-
Request for quote - Reach out to us via the link above for a quote for your project. Relevant details we will require are scope (base one-line and/or riser diagram), equipment being installed, and specific services needed. The price is based on the overall scope size and complexity, one-line details, floor plan details, etc.
-
Data compilation - Our data collection sheet will be provided once a written purchase order (PO) is provided to our office. Some of the information required is:
-
Site address, including NYC block and lot number (should match the permit address and​ is needed to get an official DOB job number).
-
Property owner information (name, address, email, contact number, etc.)
-
Con Edison incoming fault contribution data including 3-phase available fault current, impedance data (X over R ratio), service entrance location in the service room, and utility provided feeder data.
-
Asbestos abatement documents (ACP5, ACP7, ACP21, V5 variance or a PW1/job number.
-
All equipment shop drawings/as-builts including voltage rating, amperage, short circuit/withstand rating, OCPD data (fuse make/model/type and breaker make/model/trip unit).
-
Feeder data (number of sets, sizes, type, conduit type, length, etc.).
-
Kirk-key sequence of operation (when applicable).
-
-
EPR Submission - While the data is being collected, the drawings will be created, payments will be made to the DOB, and the engineer/owner signed form will be filled out. Once the drawings are ready, they will be submitted along with TCC curves and short circuit results (when applicable).​
-
Approval - After review by the EPR team, the package will come one of three ways:
-
Approved - Submission is approved (with approval number) and final inspection can be requested.​
-
Approved (with condition) - Submission is approved, but requires some additional information to be provided for final approval before inspection. Usually this is the selective coordination report (TCC curves).
-
Disapproved - Submission is rejected with details provided on how to comply.​​
