Equipment delivery is scheduled for December 2026, with installation, start-up, and commissioning planned for January-March 2027. The specifications detail requirements for arc-resistant Type 2B switchgear, protective relays, meters, and associated DC battery systems.

The equipment will be pre-purchased by the Owner and assigned to the successful Contractor after award. Key technical requirements include a nominal system voltage of 12470V 3-phase, 3-wire, grounded, 60 Hz system with a basic impulse level of 95 kV and short circuit current rating of 25 kA. The manufacturer must provide a 2-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship starting from the date of final acceptance. The basis of design is Powell – PowlVac-AR with acceptable alternates being ABB SafeGear and Point 8 Power.
