Confidential Data Center Expansion in Eagan

Hunt Electric completed a 30,000 square foot expansion within a confidential, mission critical data center in Eagan, Minnesota. The project was executed inside a fully operational facility where uptime, security, and discretion were non negotiable.

Our team was selected based on deep familiarity with the site, a proven track record in secure environments, and the ability to deliver complex infrastructure upgrades without interrupting ongoing operations. This project reflects Hunt Electric’s ongoing role as a trusted partner for sensitive, high availability facilities.

Delivering major infrastructure upgrades inside a confidential data center requires more than technical expertise. It demands discipline, trust, and a detailed understanding of live operational environments.

Hunt Electric planned and executed every phase of this expansion with confidentiality and continuity as top priorities. Careful sequencing, constant coordination, and thorough knowledge of existing systems allowed the team to complete complex installations while maintaining uninterrupted operations throughout the facility.

Hunt Electric delivered a comprehensive electrical infrastructure upgrade that included:

• Installation of three new 400 amp electrical services
• Generator installation and system integration
• Switchgear and UPS system installation
• Underground ductbank construction
• Coordination to maintain continuous data center operations
