In a 2 story building we service, the lights will go out for 10 seconds whenever the elevator goes up. This is due to the elevator motor make a large amp/ voltage demand on the power for the building and the smart ballasts in the light fixtures sensing the power fluctuation and shutting down then powering back up. We have tried to get the elevator vendor to change out the motor for a soft start system but they say it cannot be done.
They are on separate circuits, tree is only one panel that serves that building, is there a conditioner I can put ahead of the lighting circuits or on the panel, something opposite of a surge protector? Someone suggested a capacitor bank but it sounds really expensive. Any suggestions?
