There will be a scheduled test of the school electrical switch gear on September 19th, beginning at 4:00 a.m. and ending at 7:00 a.m. This testing will cause momentary power interruptions. This may impact lighting in the building. Staff who will be present in the building are advised to have a flashlight, and/or cell phone fully charged in the event that the lighting remains off. No elevators will be operational during this test.

Testing will take place in the main Medical School building only and will not affect the Hospital, Lazare Research Building or Albert Sherman Center.

Questions may be directed to Josh Fleming, Assistant Director of Facilities Management, at joshuah.fleming@umassmed.edu or 508-856-3202.
