Delta provided design for the necessary electrical and structural upgrades to enhance the shredding capability of the Owego, NY plant by replacing the existing 6,000 HP motor with a new 9,000 HP motor. Delta coordinated with New York State Electric & Gas to provide over current protection settings for the electrical distribution system and provided an arc flash hazard study of the site electrical distribution equipment. Additional structural and site engineering updates were also provided to better accommodate the new higher capacity plant.
