In-Cabinet Seismic Response Spectra Project Objective Kinectrics' customer needed replacement components qualified for installation within a Motor Control Center (MCC), but had only the original seismic qualification data for testing of the entire MCC versus the specific location where the replacements would be installed. It was impractical to re-test the entire MCC. Therefore, to qualify the replacements, data for specific in-cabinet required response spectra needed to be developed. Scope of Work This project consisted of reviewing the original seismic qualification test report for the MCC, extracting information recorded from various accelerometers during the testing, and deriving suitable required response spectra that could be used to qualify the replacement component.
