Griffin Wires New UVM Residence and Dining Facility

HOLLISTON, MA Wayne J. Griffin Electric, Inc. (Griffin Electric), a leading area electrical subcontractor, has recently completed the electrical installation work at the University of Vermont's (UVM) new Central Campus Residence Hall.
With capacity for 695 first-year students, the 207,000-square-foot facility is located in the center of the UVM campus, adjacent to classroom and academic facilities. Its traditional design offers a 450-seat dining facility, connector to the Bailey/Howe library, seminar rooms, and a fitness center. It has been designed to achieve a LEED Silver designation.

Systems for fire alarm, emergency generator and lightning protection were also setup by the team, as well as tele/data, which included communications, A/V, lighting controls and security. Griffin utilized its in-house BIM capabilities for the electrical design of the project.
