Transfer switches ASCO 7000-series automatic transfer switch and bypass-isolation transfer switch lines include a 30-cycle rating of 600 to 1,200 A. The rating has a withstand close-on rating (WCR) of 30 kA at 480 V, its ability to withstand and close-on short circuit currents with a specifi c type of over-current protective device, or for a fi nite time period. At 30 cycles, the time period is typically 0.5 sec. at 60 Hz. The rating allows the switches to be specifi ed for large, complex projects where the fault current on the emergency system is high.

Glass Panels Muffle School Noise
Replacing conventional operable panels with sound-deadening glass panels provides the acoustics and daylighting required for optimal learning.
Top. Hufcor GA1 omni-directional movable glass panels allow classrooms to be reduced in size for teaching in smaller groups at Princeton Community Middle School.

Above. Acoustic glass walls also were used at McKinney High School, McKinney, TX. A corridor was closed off, diverting students from a hallway located next to the library. A rchitects Fanning & Howey, Park Ridge, IL, were tasked to create a flexible learning environment at Princeton Community Middle School near Cincinnati. The facility had to be adaptable to changing needs and enrollments and meet LEED daylighting requirements. Traditional operable partitions were not the answer because, although they have been used for decades to divide classrooms and multipurpose spaces and are good sound controllers, they also prevent light from entering adjacent rooms.
The answer was Hufcor, Janesville, WI, GA1 omni-directional movable glass panels. The panels provide the needed flexibility, primarily to create small classrooms for small-group teaching. The insulated glass inserts meet daylighting requirements and are designed to stop as high as 44 dB of sound from traveling from one room to another. So, even though students walking through the corridors created by the folding glass walls may make noise, the glass panels keep the ambient sound levels within the rooms at levels required for optimal learning.
Guidelines published by the Acoustical Society of America (ASA), Melville, NY, state that ambient noise levels within classrooms should not exceed 35 dB, including the sound from HVAC equipment and sounds from the exterior or adjacent rooms.
In addition, the designers needed a wall system that would reduce sound flanking around the edges of the panels. To control flanking, the Hufcor operable partitions use a lever closure panel, an expandable closure that provides force across the entire system to squeeze the panels together. The 200 lb. of force creates a tight panel-to-panel bond, preventing
