CONTINUATION PAGE

Question 1: Are we to understand that you want a new set of cables to run from MH1 to LS18, Feed Thru EPS1 and EW2 (meaning no splices), and eliminate Tee Tap in MH1?

Please see Revision A on Drawing E101. LS17 and LS18 were labelled wrong.

Question 2: If Tee Tap is in MH1 does that mean you want a straight In-Line Splice done in MH1 to incoming feed?

Correct.

Question 3: Are we to assume that Building 31 has a separate set of cables running to it?

Building 31 has a separate cable running to it. Power will be shut down during new cable installation.

Question 4: Can you provide/verify the type of Terminations in LS18, LS7 (transformer Load Break by Building 104)?

This is a high-voltage Load Break Elbow. Please do submittal for intended Elbow.

Question 5: It was said verbally during Site Visit that Building 76 has its own back-up generator and will be used during LS14 swap out, we are only responsible for providing diesel fuel for the duration of use for this backup generator. Can you confirm?

The Emergency Generator for Building 76 will be used during the replacement of the Loop Switch. The contractor will be responsible for the fuel used by the generator.

Question 6: Can you clarify new cable to be installed? Can you clarify Ground to be installed with new Cable?

Refer to E101, Detail Note 3. This cable will have a ground.

Question 7: Do you require Third Party Testing of new installed cable?

The Bath VAMC does not require Third Party Testing of the new installed cable. See Detail Note 3 on drawing E101 for testing requirements.

Question 8: I’m having some difficulty getting quotes for the switch. Just wanted to let you know that there is some conflicting information on the drawing for this S&C gear. I want to see if you can clarify if you want a Source Transfer Controller on the gear or if you are only looking for a manual replacement for the lineup that is already there.

On the drawing E102, the left hand one-line shows the gear with a STC and the information on the right shows and calls out a manual unit. Also, the description in the other portion of the bid solicitation does not clarify the type requested.

Please see Revision A on drawing E102.
