GK Engineers provided full MEP design for TE Connectivity’s tenant improvement of Building 3 in El Paso, about 80,000 SF of tilt-wall warehouse converted to manufacturing and distribution. The building produces, stores and ships electrical components for data center, aerospace and life safety customers.

Fan coil systems serve the office and support areas, while large-diameter destratification fans move air in the warehouse alongside retained gas unit heaters and exhaust. A new 1,600A distribution panel taps the existing 2,500A bus, feeding four transformers and twelve tenant panels for a 450 kVA production load.

Adding restrooms, a breakroom and a truckers’ lounge to a slab-on-grade warehouse meant new sanitary piping saw-cut into the slab and tied to the existing main, with a short circuit study to confirm the retained gear. The project was completed in 2024.
