Scope of Work
As part of Samsung’s $17 billion semiconductor manufacturing campus in Taylor, Texas, Cummings Electrical is delivering core electrical infrastructure to support one of the most advanced chip fabrication facilities in the U.S. The current scope includes constructing and installing three prefabricated modular buildings within a new substation yard. Each building houses medium-voltage transformers, switchboards, DC rectifiers, and SEL relay cabinets, with dedicated zones for low-voltage communications systems.
Designed for precision and performance, these 77,000–89,000-pound modules were placed on elevated concrete piers to ensure seamless integration with site-wide cabling and control systems. The electrical work supports a 500,000-square-foot ground-up development at the heart of the semiconductor production zone.
Challenges & Solutions
The installation of heavy modular electrical buildings demanded exact coordination across structural, civil, and electrical teams. Cummings executed crane lifts and pier placement with minimal tolerances, ensuring each module was set accurately to enable proper cable routing and system connectivity.
Given the scale and technical demands of semiconductor manufacturing, the team worked under tight schedules and evolving site logistics, requiring agile planning, real-time coordination with Samsung’s design teams, and continuous QA/QC oversight to maintain system integrity and schedule alignment.
Results
This milestone project contributes to powering one of the largest and most advanced semiconductor manufacturing facilities in the U.S. Through modular prefabrication, expert installation, and high-performance system design, the team has supported Samsung’s vision for next-generation chip production. The work reflects Cummings Electricals’ ability to deliver precision-driven electrical solutions that meet the rigorous demands of the high-tech industrial sector.
