This is a technical specification document for high-voltage outdoor circuit breakers issued by the City of Bartow, Florida, detailing requirements for the purchase of three new medium voltage vacuum circuit breakers to replace obsolete units at the Church Street Substation. The specification, Section 33-75-23, establishes comprehensive technical design requirements and control systems for distribution feeder breakers, including detailed performance ratings, materials, equipment standards, and operational mechanisms. Pre-approved manufacturers include ABB type R-MAG, Siemens type SDV7-MA, or equal alternatives subject to pre-approval by the City of Bartow prior to the bid submission deadline. Each circuit breaker unit must be a 3-pole outdoor type with a maximum voltage rating of 15 kV, nominal operating voltage of 12.47 kV, continuous current capacity of 1200 amperes, minimum short circuit current of 20 kA at 15 kV, and interrupting time of three cycles, all compliant with IEEE C37.04 and C37.06 standards.

The specification mandates that each circuit breaker be factory-installed with one SEL-351S Protection System Relay, completely wired and integrated into the control cabinet, with all current transformer leads, terminal blocks, and control wiring pre-installed and tested by the manufacturer. The control cabinet must include specific components such as LED indicating lamps, local-remote SCADA switches, mechanical position indicators, operation counters, auxiliary switches, terminal blocks with spare positions, and tripping devices. All current-carrying parts must be copper or copper alloy, external hardware must be stainless steel type 316, and bushings must be dry or sealed-condenser type compliant with IEEE C57.19.00 and C57.19.01. The equipment contractor is responsible for furnishing fully assembled, factory-tested breakers meeting all applicable IEEE, ASTM, and NEMA standards, coordinating delivery, supplying required documentation, and ensuring all materials are new and suitable for utility substation conditions. Bidders are required to submit recommended spare parts, including part numbers and associated costs, as part of their bid tabulation.
