Multi-tenant high-rise electrical systems: Design & code considerations

Edgar Medina, Eaton Power System Experience Center (PSEC) Manager, explains how electrical power in a multi-tenant high-rise is distributed. Starting from the busway and traveling to the receptacle, Edgar also identifies NFPA 70, National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements that are required for multi-tenant high-rises.
