B. All materials, microprocessors, surge suppressors, power supplies, terminals, and manufactured articles for incorporation into the Work shall be the new, unused, and currently supported standard products of recognized reputable MANUFACTURERS. Legacy or end-of-life electronic components will not be accepted.

1.02 RESPONSIBILITY OF CONTRACTOR

A. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the entire Work determined by the Drawings, Specifications, and Contract from the date of the starting of the Work until it is accepted as evidence of approval of the Completion Certificate by the OWNER.

He shall be responsible for removals, renewals, and replacements due to electrical surges, environmental conditions, and all other causes except as otherwise provided in the Specifications.

The CONTRACTOR shall keep the Contract under his own control and it shall be his responsibility to see that the Work is properly supervised and carried on faithfully and efficiently.

B. The CONTRACTOR shall supervise the work personally or shall have a competent, English-speaking superintendent or representative— who is thoroughly experienced in industrial instrumentation, electrical safety, and SCADA deployment—on the project site at all working hours. This individual shall be clothed with full authority by the CONTRACTOR to direct the performance of the work and make arrangements for all necessary materials, specialized testing equipment, and labor without delay.

C. Renewals or repairs necessitated because of defective electronics, faulty wiring terminations, poor workmanship, or due to action of the elements or other natural causes, including electrical faults, water intrusion, or component overheating prior to final acceptance, shall be done anew in accordance with the Contract and Specifications at the expense of the

Removal & Replacement of Telemetry Cabinets for 01100 -3 Existing SCADA Systems – Phased Projects a period of one (1) year. The warranty period shall commence on the date of substantial completion of the entire project by the OWNER. Warranties for installed individual panels will not be accepted in piecemeal unless authorized in writing.

B. The system shall be warranted to be free from defects in workmanship, assembly, logic configuration, and materials. If any part of the control panel should fail during the warranty period, it shall be replaced and re-tested at no expense to the

OWNER.

C. The hardware MANUFACTURER’s warranty period shall run concurrently with the CONTRACTOR’s warranty or guarantee period.

No exception to this provision shall be allowed.

1.07 CONSTRUCTION CONDITIONS AND SCADA INFRASTRUCTURE

A. The CONTRACTOR shall strictly adhere to the specific requirements of the governmental unit(s), electrical codes (NEC), or safety agency(ies) having jurisdiction over the work.

Wherever there is a difference in the requirements of a jurisdictional body, the National Electrical Code, and these Specifications, the more stringent shall apply.

B. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for having determined to his satisfaction, prior to the submission of his bid, the nature and location of the work, the existing configuration of the control loops, the type of communication networks (fiber, radio, cellular), the status of existing field wiring, and the availability of backup power sources needed during the prosecution of the work. Any claims for extras based on field circuit discrepancies, unmapped I/O points, or network routing challenges will not be allowed.

1.08 PUBLIC NUISANCE AND NOISE (NOT USED)

1.09 SUSPENSION OF WORK DUE TO WEATHER AND ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

A. During inclement weather or high-lightning risks, all outdoor work on instrumentation loops, antenna towers, and unsealed enclosures which might be damaged or rendered unsafe shall be suspended. During suspension, panels shall be sealed weather-tight.

1.10 PERMITS Not Used

1.11 PUMPING AND RUNTIME DEACTIVATION COORDINATION

A. The CONTRACTOR shall coordinate all panel shutdowns with the facility operations group to ensure that wet well levels, leachate levels, or gas pressures are lowered prior to taking any corresponding TELEMETRY CABINETS offline.

Removal & Replacement of Telemetry Cabinets for 01100 -4 Existing SCADA Systems – Phased Projects

B. If temporary backup monitoring or emergency local manual pump tracking is needed while a TELEMETRY CABINET is disconnected, the CONTRACTOR shall deploy temporary hardwired float controls or localized controllers to prevent pump station overflows or flotation of any structures.

1.12 DAILY REPORTS

A. The CONTRACTOR shall submit daily reports of system integration and installation activities, including non-work days. The report shall include:

1. Manpower, number of technicians and electricians by craft;

2. Diagnostic and testing equipment on the project site;
