The brief
Crown Beverages, a major manufacturer, required an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system to protect sensitive production line equipment from voltage fluctuations and outages. Our team supplied and installed three 800KVA transformer-based UPS units with a 15-minute battery backup at full load, plus a parallel control system for load sharing. The installation required a new concrete plinth, heavy-duty cable trays, ventilation ducting, and integration with the plant’s existing diesel generator for seamless transition during extended outages.
We also provided comprehensive training for the client’s electrical staff. The system has since operated with 99.9% uptime, preventing costly production stoppages. This project demonstrates our capability in complex industrial electrical works beyond traditional construction.
Scope of Work
- 3 x 800KVA transformer-based UPS
- 15-minute battery backup at full load
- Parallel control system
- Concrete plinth & cable trays
- Integration with existing diesel generator
- Staff training
Location
Our team mobilized equipment and materials to a remote location with limited road access, requiring careful logistics planning. The project was completed during the dry season to avoid weather-related delays. Since handover, the market has become a vibrant economic hub, benefiting over 300 local vendors and improving food security and income generation in the sub-county.
