Amendment 001.2 - Exhibit B - Revised Bid Form~1.docx

BID EVALUATION SCHEDULE

115-kV CLASS POWER TRANSFORMER

Complete the following Bid Evaluation Schedule; indicate the no-load (core) losses, load (copper) losses at loading noted, and associated dollar amounts. This schedule will be used for bid evaluation purposes.

BID GROUP A: POWER TRANSFORMER

BID GROUP B: SPARE PARTS

BID GROUP C: FIELD-RELATED SERVICES

ADDITIVE ALTERNATE A TRANSFORMER STORAGE CHARGE

Should site development or construction be delayed, the OWNER may choose to have the transformer stored at the manufacturer’s facility. If necessary to store a transformer beyond the specified delivery date range, state the amount to store a transformer per month.

________________________________________________________ Dollars

ADDITIVE ALTERNATE B ALTERNATE OIL OPTION

If available by the manufacturer, provide an alternative adder price to design and supply the transformer with an accepted biodegradable seed or vegetable oil-based substitute that meets all ASTM, IEEE, and ANSI performance requirements. The oil alternative will be in lieu of pure mineral oil insulation. A datasheet for the alternative oil and a list of any special tools, monitoring devices, testing, or maintenance requirements to properly care for the substitute oil must be noted herein and provided with the proposal. The cost shown is interpreted as the difference to provide the transformer with the substitute oil, to be purchased at the OWNER’s option.
