Revised Agenda

1. Introductions, and Passing of Sign-In List
2. Review minutes of last meeting held in Calgary, Alberta Canada
3. Brief Review of Purpose of this Committee: To provide a venue for those who are involved in the design, operations, and/or maintenance of the electrical systems installed in Educational or Healthcare (E&H) Facilities. More specifically to provide a venue to:
   1. Share experiences and problems with others, using the above noted E&H website
   2. Share and review persistent or longer-term questions and problems, in a more face-to-face environment, with others at our semi-annual meetings. (This sharing may be in many formats, including panel sessions or paper presentations.)
   3. Be made aware of upcoming, or newly published, codes and standard affecting the E&H community
   4. Define areas where electrical standards do not exist, in areas of interest to the E&H community; and to use the IEEE Standards model to create new standards.
   5. Discuss desirable changes in existing codes and standards, and to possibly imitate actions to change them.
4. Some Current Issues that May Need Standards, Recommended Practices, and/or Guidelines written (or revised):
   1. Campus environment, medium voltage, distribution systems.
   2. Supplying power to medical imaging systems
   3. Using reliable campus power distribution systems, instead of emergency power generators.
   4. Connecting, multiple manufacturer fire alarm systems into one ‘terminal’ at campus security operations center, to make the monitoring of those systems more convenient.
   5. Outdoor security lighting standards for campus, or other similar, environments.
   6. Other items
5. Panel Sessions, Papers, or Tutorials that Should be considered for I&CPS 2016 or IAS 2016
   1. Understanding the REAL power needs for medical imaging systems:
      1. The actual thermal loads on distribution systems
      2. The actual load profiles of the imaging systems themselves

• Defining the real systems’ power quality needs, to achieve quality images, at minimum costs

1. How do differing UPS modalities affect power quality and unit sizing

1. Working with utility’s so that both the utility and the customer have similar set of definitions of power quality and power reliability. Thus making communications clearer
2. Using aluminum feeder conductors for cost savings, and ease of installation, all without sacrificing safety.
3. Installing lighting control so new buildings/installations may be sized (per NEC) to 1-watt per square foot instead of 3-watts or more, now required by NEC. Doing so may dramatically reduce service sizes, initial costs, and possibly are-flash.
4. Other issues

6. Next meeting is in Detroit May 1-5, 2016
7. Move to Adjourn
