About this file
This is a technical specification (Section 26 26 00) from Addendum #3 for power distribution units for static uninterruptible power systems at the Sioux Falls VA Health Care System Boiler Plant project in South Dakota. The specification details requirements for furnishing, installing, connecting, and testing power distribution units that transform and distribute electrical power from a static uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
The specification requires components including input circuit breakers, isolation transformers, surge protective devices (SPD), output panelboards, and alarm/monitoring/control systems. Key technical requirements include 3-pole shunt-tripped circuit breakers rated for 125% of input current, 208/120V 3-phase 4-wire panelboards with copper buses and 100% neutral bus, and comprehensive monitoring capabilities for power metrics (kWh, kW, voltage, current, frequency, etc.). The system must include emergency power-off switches and automatic shutdown features for conditions like high temperature, voltage issues, phase loss, and ground faults. The contractor must provide factory testing, on-site acceptance testing witnessed by the Contracting Officer Representative (COR), and a 2-hour training session by a factory-trained technician for VA personnel.
