All meter rooms must be located on the ground floor and have two exit doors equipped with panic hardware. At least one door must lead directly outside. BWP must be supplied an access key to the room, which will be installed in a lock box adjacent to the door. The developer shall consult BWP for approved location and obtain a service confirmation prior to any installations.
37. All new metered services require a path for meter communications to BWP communication networks. Installation of meters that fail to continuously communicate with BWP communication networks will require additional BWP approved equipment to be installed at the developer’s expense in order to create the appropriate communications path.
Street Lighting (BWP Rules and Regulations 3.19(c)4 per BMC 8-2-203)
38. The developer is responsible for the street lighting system traversing or adjacent to the project. The street light system is required to be underground fed with LED luminaires. If existing lighting conditions do not satisfy this requirement, modification will have to be made at the developer’s expense. Standards and luminaries will be supplied by BWP at the developer’s expense. A plot plan of the site must be submitted to BWP during the initial planning stage of the project for street light design.
39. Any construction that impacts existing streetlight standards or infrastructure will require relocation at the developer’s cost.
Fiber/Communication

ATTACHMENT 7 - 10
43. All equipment locations and screening structures will be indicated on the plans and must meet the Community Development Department Equipment Screening Guidelines. The plans will include the proposed screening method, height of screening, material finish, and color or species of vegetation. All screen walls, which are a part of, or adjacent to, the proposed building will be shown on the building elevations. All screen walls detached from the building will be included as a separate elevation. Verification of submittal requirements and recommendations for screening requirements shall be by the CDD Director or his designee.
44. BWP landscaping requirements for transformer pads and switch pads:
Due to the natural maturation of trees and other landscaping elements, the following requirements are to be adhered to:
a) New plantings within three feet of the back or sides of the pad and within eight feet of the front shall be of a groundcover type. This is considered the working zone.
b) Outside of the working zone, shrubbery is acceptable within eight feet of the pads, but trees must be beyond an eight-foot radius to lessen future root conflicts.
c) Landscaping grade shall be a minimum of five inches below the grade level of the top of transformer pads.
d) All irrigation and sprinkler systems shall be constructed so that water shall not be directed onto the switch, the transformers, or the concrete pads.
Additionally, surface water shall drain away from the concrete pads.
Landscape plans shall adhere to the above requirements, showing proper working clearances for electrical facilities on L-sheets.
Energy Efficiency
45. The electrical design shall comply with California Building Code Title 24 energy effici
ency requirements and shall use, wherever practical, surge suppressors, filters, isolation transformers, or other available means to preserve a quality of power of its electrical service and to protect sensitive electronic and computer-controlled equipment from voltage surges, sags, and fluctuations. BWP also recommends the use of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and a standby generator for critical loads.
46. Power factor correction to a minimum of 90% will be requested to minimize kVA demand as well as energy use. The developer must use California Nonresident Building Standard to consider and implement energy efficient electrical equipment and devices for minimizing peak demand and wasteful energy consumption.
Electric Vehicle Charging
47. Electric Vehicle (EV) parking capacity shall be in accordance with Title 24 building code requirem
ents. Plans shall detail all planned EV charger installations as well as all EV ATTACHMENT 7 - 11
capable parking spaces. The electrical service panel shall include capacity to simultaneously charge all EV capable parking spots at their full-rated amperage whether installed or not.
48. As part of our efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, and enhance customer service, Burbank Water and Power’s Electric Vehicle Charging program promotes the use of electric vehicles by providing rebates for the installation of Level 2 (240V) charging equipment. BWP also installs and maintains a public electric vehicle charging network, consisting of 45 Level 2 charging ports and 2 DC Fast Chargers (480V), with new stations added each year depending on budget and availability. For more information on the rebates and the charging network, please contact Drew Kidd at 818- 238-3653 or [email protected]. Additionally, information can be found at https://www.burbankwaterandpower.com/conservation/electric-vehicles-rebate.
Additional Comments
49. A feasibility study as recommended under the Aid-in-Construction comment above should be
requested and completed before finalizing the site plan. A padmount switch will be required, and electrical structures may affect layout of parking, buildings, and landscaping.
The feasibility study is not required ahead of time, but it will help the developer in planning for the electrical installation. Past projects and experience have shown that a feasibility study will help determine the extent of onsite electrical facilities for the requested load, and may save the developer cost and time in the design process. BWP highly recommends a feasibility study to reduce cost and improve coordination of new utility installations with the development.
50. This project will be required to underground the adjacent overhead lines, this work will affect adjacent services and provisions to refeed these services will need to be provided either on or off site. If provided onsite these electrical structures may affect layout of parking, buildings, and landscaping. See Substructure section above.
