The Central Pacific Plaza Office Building has an emergency diesel engine which will start automatically. This will provide electrical power to the fire alarm system, to the security office in the basement and selected emergency lights on each floor, including the fire escape stairwell. In addition, it will provide limited power at all elevators.
The Building Management personnel will determine as quickly as possible when restoration of power can be expected and will then inform the tenants of CENTRAL PACIFIC PLAZA. There is insufficient electrical power to operate the air conditioning systems and will not pump water to restrooms above floor 5. Therefore, a long period without primary electrical power may dictate a release of your employees.
- Activating emergency lights on each floor throughout the building, including all Exit signs.
- Activating all stairwell lighting.
- Activating the building’s emergency Fire, Life and Safety Systems as well as the building’s communication systems.
- Recalling all elevators to the ground floor lobby (One elevator will remain operative for use by security to assist handicapped persons or to take service crews and equipment into the building, as needed).
It is seldom necessary to evacuate the building during a power failure. Unless you are directed to do so through the emergency communication system, please remain in your offices.
Please...DO NOT CALL the Building Management Office unless you need to notify us of the location of a disabled employee.
