About this file
This document is an addendum for an invitation to bid on the Wolf Lake Fish Hatchery - Electrical Distribution Upgrades project issued by the Michigan State Department of Technology, Management and Budget. The addendum provides clarifications and modifications to the original contract documents, including attachments of sign-in sheets, a reissued schedule of alternates, updated electrical drawings, and a re-issued specification section. Key clarifications include that the base bid is to perform all work shown on the drawings and specifications, the priority of the deduct alternates, requirements for medium voltage cables and testing, and the need for temporary power during outages over 8 hours.
The addendum also provides responses to questions, including the type of switchgear required, the cable type to be provided, and the items included in the allowance amount. The schedule of alternates indicates two deduct alternates: refeed well 2 with new conduit and wire, and provide and install eight new medium-voltage step-down transformers and two new medium-voltage cables.

Design and Construction Division Michigan State Police – Headquarters Switchgear Replacement and Associated Upgrades
MEDIUM-VOLTAGE, SWITCHGEAR 261329 - 8
1. Examine tie rods and chains to verify they are undamaged and tight and that blocking and bracing are tight.
2. Verify that there is no evidence of load shifting in transit and that readings from transportation shock recorders, if equipped, are within manufacturer's recommendations.
3. Examine switchgear for external damage, including dents or scratches in doors and sill, and termination provisions.
4. Compare switchgear and accessories received with the bill of materials to verify that the shipment is complete. Verify that switchgear and accessories conform to the manufacturer's quotation and Shop Drawings. If the shipment is not complete or does not comply with project requirements, notify the manufacturer in writing immediately.
5. Unload switchgear, observing packing label warnings and handling instructions.
6. Open compartment doors and inspect components for damage or displaced parts, loose or broken connections, cracked or chipped insulators, bent mounting flanges, dirt or foreign material, and water or moisture.
B. Handling:
1. Handle switchgear, according to manufacturer's recommendations; avoid damage to the enclosure, termination compartments, base, frame, and internal components. Do not subject switchgear to impact, jolting, jarring, or rough handling.
2. Transport switchgear upright to avoid internal stresses on equipment mounting assemblies. Do not tilt or tip switchgear.
3. Use spreaders or a lifting beam to obtain a vertical lift and to protect switchgear from straps bearing against the enclosure. Lifting cable pull angles may not be greater than 15 degrees from vertical.
4. Do not damage structure when handling switchgear.
C. Storage:
1. Switchgear may be stored outdoors. If possible, store switchgear at final installation locations on concrete pads. If dry concrete surfaces are not available, use pallets of adequate strength to protect switchgear from direct contact with the ground. Ensure switchgear is level.
2. Protect switchgear from physical damage. Do not store switchgear in the presence of corrosive or explosive gases.
3. Store switchgear with compartment doors closed.
D. Examine roughing-in of conduits and grounding systems to verify the following:
1. Wiring entries comply with layout requirements.
2. Entries are within conduit-entry tolerances specified by manufacturer and no feeders have to cross section barriers to reach load or line lugs.
E. Pre-Installation Checks:
1. Verify removal of any shipping bracing after placement.
Design and Construction Division Michigan State Police – Headquarters Switchgear Replacement and Associated Upgrades
MEDIUM-VOLTAGE, SWITCHGEAR 261329 - 9
F. Verify that ground connections are in place and that requirements have been met. Maximum ground resistance shall be 5 ohms at switchgear location.
G. Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected.
3.2 SWITCHGEAR INSTALLATION
A. Comply with NECA 1.
B. Equipment Mounting:
1. Install switchgear on cast-in-place concrete equipment base(s). Comply with requirements for equipment bases and foundations.

E. Maintain minimum clearances and workspace at equipment according to manufacturer's written instructions and IEEE C2.
3.3 CONNECTIONS
A. Ground equipment.
1. For counterpoise, use tinned bare copper cable not smaller than No. 4/0 AWG, buried not less than 30 inches (765 mm) below grade interconnecting the grounding electrodes.
Bond surge arrester and neutrals directly to the switchgear enclosure and then to the grounding electrode system with bare copper conductors, sized as shown. Keep lead lengths as short as practicable with no kinks or sharp bends.
2. Fence and equipment connections shall not be smaller than No. 4 AWG. Ground fence at each gate post and corner post and at intervals not exceeding 10 ft. (3050 mm). Bond each gate section to the fence post using 1/8 by 1 inch (3 by 25 mm) tinned flexible braided copper strap and clamps.
3. Make joints in grounding conductors and loops by exothermic weld or compression connector.
4. Terminate all grounding and bonding conductors on a common equipment grounding terminal on the switchgear enclosure.
5. Complete the switchgear grounding and surge protector connections prior to making any other electrical connections.
