Pempek was contracted to furnish and install rack lighting, emergency lighting, under conveyor lighting, panel feeders, electrical panels and conveyor panel feeders in an almost complete 800,000 sq. feet building within 90 days. The $800,000 budgeted project was completed on time and under budget by the Chicago electricians. Further work, worth $350,000 was carried out by the company due to customer additions after their personnel moved in.
"This fast paced project required a lot of detailed work. The sheer size of the facility, tight schedule, coordination with other trades and responding quickly to our clients needs as they increased our scope of work without delaying the completion date of the project was a nice challenge for our company and I am proud of our performance in meeting that challenge. The scope of work was impressive for the 90 day schedule. Two hundred forty seven 400W metal halide lights had to be removed to accommodate 792 six lamp linear fluorescent hi-bay fixtures for the rack lighting. We installed 8,340 linear feet of 4" conduit, 1000' of 3" conduit and 2000' of 2 ½" conduit. The project took approximately 5 miles of 750mcm cable, 2 miles of 500 mcm cable and 1 mile of 250 mcm cable. Our longest continuous pull, two parallel runs of four 500 mcm cables and one 250 mcm cable, was exactly 935'. We installed 4 ½" miles of smaller conduit and consumed over 15 miles of wire size #2 or smaller. Our workers carried out a total of 6,851 hours of work on this project and we are delighted our hard work is being acknowledged with this award," says Michael Pempek of John J. Pempek Inc.
