The resort and casino has their own electrical generating station.  They are adding a new generator and I have to add it to the control system.

Now you just have to get them to send you there in the winter instead of up to Canada!  

Are the gensets turbines or diesel?  For an operation that size they must have a good size power plant.

RickK:
Nice - Need to get in and get out before the H-Season starts though :roll:

John Jones:
Rick, the first swirling cloud and I'm on a plane for Miami  :wink:

Jim, they have 2 Wartsila (sp) diesels @ 2 MW each.  They are permenantly mounted inside a building.  That's not always enough, especially when one needs maintenance so they just put in a 1500kw trailer mounted Cat.  This resort is huge.  The resort electrical load can hit 20% of the entire island's load.  Permanent population is only 36,000.

JimCt:
Get some fishing in?
