It may be necessary to shut off circuit breakers to a flooded area. (Staff should not attempt to do this if there is water on the floor. Instead, have the Fire Department do this.) The circuit box in the basement is in Rm. B0202. On all other floors the circuit boxes are located in the northwest and southwest corners of the building.
