McGough led regular coordination and installation logistics meetings with the local utility provider, West Penn Power, and the University’s utility crews and building facility coordinators. McGough was responsible for MV cabling, terminations and testing along with coordinated cutover sequences documented by detailed Method of Procedures (MOPs) to ensure zero unplanned interruptions.
