Pacific Energy Center Tool Lending Library |
The Pacific Energy Center Tool Lending Library is an amazing resource. If you are a California Public Utility customer or doing work for such a customer, you can borrow instruments to measure and log data in your facilities at no charge.
The library has thousands of instruments ranging from simple hand-held multi-function tools to data loggers to power loggers to air data multi-meters to transient time ultrasonic flow meters. Even if you don't live in California, the library's inventory viewer is a great way to learn about what types of instrument you might use to measure a particular parameter and who makes them. And their Application Notes are great resources for learning how to properly go about taken different measurements. |
Recently, Bill Pottinger retired and his assistant, Mary McDonald has stepped in to take his place. As a result, Mary's former position as a Energy Audit Equipment Specialist is open and the Energy Center is currently taking applications to fill it. So, if you live in the Bay Area and are looking for a way to get into the technical side of the commissioning industry, this might be a great way to do it.
