About this file
This is a Technical Specifications document for Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, specifically Section 26 28 01.00 10 addressing Coordinated Power System Protection, dated April 2019.
The specification establishes comprehensive requirements for protective devices and power system coordination for electrical installations at the facility. Key product requirements include molded-case circuit breakers (conforming to UL 489), low-voltage power circuit breakers (IEEE C37.13 and C37.16), low-voltage fuses (NEMA FU 1), motor controls and motor control centers (NEMA ICS standards and UL 508/845), protective relays, and instrument transformers (NEMA/ANSI C12.11 and IEEE C57.13). The specification mandates that all equipment be standard manufacturer products with at least two years of satisfactory utility use prior to bid opening. Submittals required include product data, fault current analysis, protective device coordination studies, field testing reports, and certificates of compliance with specified standards. Quality assurance requires a registered professional electrical power engineer with minimum three years of current power system coordination experience to prepare analyses and coordinate system design, along with a manufacturer's product field service engineer or independent testing company with minimum two years of protective device experience for installation and testing. The coordination study must demonstrate maximum selectivity between protective devices, include load flow and fault current analyses extending from source bus to 600-volt distribution buses, and provide fully coordinated composite time-current characteristic curves with recommended ratings and settings. Field testing must be performed in the presence of the Contracting Officer with 10 days' advance notice, covering visual inspections, manual operations, electrical tests, and calibration of all protective devices in accordance with manufacturer instructions and applicable standards including NEMA C37.50.
