0. HV Breaker Maintenance:

2. All HV breaker maintenance shall be performed by qualified marine electricians

2. Refer to reference 2.1.1 and 2.1.4 for detailed procedures.

2. Rack out and remove for inspection and maintenance all the switchboard breakers and contactors.

2. Visually inspect drive insulator, barriers and stand-off insulators for dirt and cracking. Clean with lint free cloth or replace cracked piece.

2. Check the insulation integrity of the Main Circuit to Ground, between Main circuit Terminals and Control circuit to ground with a hip potential (Hipot) tester as follows:

Note: The test voltage depends upon the maximum rated voltage of the breaker. For breaker elements rated at 8.25 KV, the test voltage is 27 KVAC.

4. Remove circuit breaker form the switchboard in accordance with Reference 2.1.1. to perform the following tests.

4. Close the breaker. Connect the High Potential lead of the test machine to one of the poles of the breaker. Connect the remaining poles and breaker frame to ground.

4. Start the machine with output potential at zero and increase to the test voltage. Maintain the test voltage for one minute. Repeat for the remaining poles. Successful withstand indicates satisfactory insulation strength of the primary circuit.

2. Visually check the vacuum interrupters by closing the circuit breakers and observing if all the green marks on the moving stems are visible. If a mark is not visible, perform a contact wipe check.

5. The adequacy of the contact wipe can be determined by observing the vacuum interrupter side of the operating rod assembly on a closed circuit breaker. Refer to tech manual for the procedure in determining the contact wipe of blue or red contact springs. If the wipe is not adequate, the vacuum interrupter assembly (pole unit) must be replaced. A field adjustment is not possible.

Note: Failure to replace a pole unit assembly when contact erosion mark is not visible or wipe is unsatisfactory will cause the breaker to fail to interrupt and thereby cause property damage or personal injury.

2. Vacuum Interrupters used in Type VCP-W Vacuum Circuit Breaker Elements Are highly reliable interrupting elements. Satisfactory performance of these devices is dependent upon the integrity of the vacuum in the interrupter and the internal dielectric strength. Both these parameters can be easily checked by a one minute AC High Potential test.

Warning: Applying abnormally high voltage across a pair of contacts in vacuum may produce x-radiation. The radiation increases with the increase in voltage and or decreases in contact spacing. X radiation produced during this test with recommended voltage and normal contact spacing is extremely low and well below maximum permitted by standards. However, as a precautionary measure against possibility of application of higher than recommended voltage and or below normal contact spacing, it is recommended that all operating personnel stand at lest four meters away in front of the breaker element.

Warning: After the high potential is removed, an electrical charge may be retained by the vacuum interrupters. Failure to discharge the residual electrostatic charge could result in an electrical shock. All six primary terminals and the center ring of each vacuum interrupter of the circuit breaker should be grounded to reduce this electrical charge before coming in contact with the primary circuit.

2. Perform vacuum interrupter integrity test as follows:

7. With the breaker element open, connect all top primary studs (bars) together and to the high potential machine lead. Connect all bottom studs together and ground them along with the breaker frame. Start the machine at zero potential, increase to appropriate test voltage and maintain for one minute.

7. Test voltage is 27 KV AC 60hz, per reference 2.1.4 section 6-4.

7. A successful withstand indicates that all interrupters have a satisfactory vacuum level. If there is a breakdown, the defective interrupter or interrupters should be identified by an individual test and replaced before placing the breaker in service.

Note: To avoid any ambiguity in the AC hi potential test due to leakage or displacement (capacitive) current, the test unit should have sufficient volt ampere capacity. It is recommended that the equipment be capable of delivering 25 milliamperes for one minute.

2. Inspect the primary disconnects for evidence of burning or damage. Replace if burned, damaged or eroded,

2. Test the closing and tripping device including disconnects of the circuit breaker twice. Replace any defective device. Identify per troubleshooting chart in reference 2.1.4.

2. Visually check that wiring is securely tied in proper place. Repair or tie as necessary.

2. Visually check that the terminals are tight. Tighten or replace if necessary.

2. Conduct a functional test of the charging motor. Replace brushes if necessary or motor.

2. Make a careful visual inspection of the operating mechanism for any loose or missing parts. Tighten or reinstate if necessary with appropriate tools. Visually check for dust or foreign matter. Clean as necessary.

2. Check for the smooth operation of the operating mechanism. Check for deformation or excessive wear. Submit “as found” condition report when replacement parts are required to the Chief Engineer and Port Engineer.

2. Lubricate operating mechanisms very sparingly with light mineral oil; refer to reference 2.1.4 Figure 6-1 for lubrications points. After lubrication, operate the circuit breaker several times manually and electrically.

2. Check for smooth operation during manual charging, closing and tripping.

2. Conduct a Closure™ Test in accordance with reference 2.1.4 Section 6-9.1

2. After final inspection and upon approval by the ships force authorizing engineer and/or MSCrep and/or competent person reinstall breakers into switchboard.

2. Complete Part 3 of the HV Limitation of Access Permit.

2. Provide a final testreport for each circuit breaker serviced to the Chief Engineer and Port Engineer.

0. HV Contactor Maintenance:

3. All HV Contactor maintenance shall be performed by qualified marine electricians

3. Remove contactor from the switchboard.

3. Visually Inspect contactor for dirt and or grease and clean as needed with lint free cloth.

3. To verify the integrity of the vacuum interrupters a voltage of 16KV-AC should be applied across the open contacts of the interrupters. The voltage should be applied for 60 seconds without breakdown. Breakdown is defined as a current of 5mA or more flowing across the open contacts. Note that approximately 1.3mA of current will flow through each interrupter during the AC test due to the capacitance of the vacuum interrupter. If a DC high potential test unit is used, make certain that the peak voltage does not exceed 23KV, the peak of the corresponding AC RMS test voltage. A megger cannot be used to verify vacuum integrity due to its limited output voltage.

Warning: When a vacuum bottle is tested with voltage over 5000 volts across its open gap there is some possibility of generating X-rays. Test should be minimized and personnel should be not closer than 10 feet this is a precaution until such time as the possible hazard is better understood and standards are published.

Note: Periodic dielectric tests across open contacts should not be omitted on the basis of satisfactory contactor performance since under certain operating conditions, the contactor may perform satisfactorily even though one vacuum interrupter has become defective.

3. Contact material vaporizes from the contact faces during every interruption and condenses elsewhere inside the bottle. This is normal, and is provided for by overtravel or wear allowance. When the contactor is fully closed, there is a gap between the lower bottle nut and a pivot plate. As the contacts wear, this gap decreases. When the gap goes below 0.020 inches on any pole, all the bottle subassemblies should be replaced. Use the 0.020 inch thick fork shaped overtravel feeler gauge supplied for this measurement, part no 5259C11. DO NOT RE-ADJUST THE BOTTLE NUTS TO RESET OVER TRAVEL AS THE CONTACTS WEAR. Once the contactor is place in service, overtravel should be checked but not adjusted.

3. Inspect the primary disconnects for evidence of burning or damage. Replace if burned, damaged or eroded.

3. Test the closing and tripping device including disconnects of the contactor twice. Replace any defective devices.

3. Visually check that wiring is securely tied in proper place. Repair or tie as necessary.

3. Visually check that the terminals are tight. Tighten or replace if necessary.

3. Make a careful visual inspection of the operating mechanism for any loose or missing parts. Tighten or reinstate if necessary with appropriate tools. Visually check for dust or foreign matter.

3. Check for the smooth operation of the operating mechanism. Check for deformation or excessive wear. Submit “As Found” condition report when replacement parts are required.

3. Reinstall all contactors into the switchboard.

3. Complete Part 3 of the HV Limitation of Access Permit.

3. Submit a test report for each HV contactor serviced to the Chief Engineer and Port Engineer.

11. Apply a constant 500 volts DC between the winding and the ground using a direct-indicating megohmeter, for 10 minutes.

11. The PI is a calculated ratio of the 10-minute to the 1-minute value of the insulation resistance, measured consecutively. Record resistance values after 1-minute and after 10-minutes. The calculation is as follows:

Polarization Index (PI) = Resistance after 10 minutes/Resistance after 1 minute.

11. Tested values should be compared against previous readings to track changes. If history is not available, the recommended minimum values of PI for all machine components insulation classes per IEC 60085-01:1984 are:

Thermal Class Rating --- Minimum PI Class A --- 1.5 Class B --- 2.0 Class F --- 2.0 Class H --- 2.0 Note: These are the lowest values at which a winding is recommended for an over-voltage test or for operation. The PI test is not applicable to non-insulated field windings. Very high PI (greater than 8) for varnished cambric, shellac mica-folium, or asphaltic stator windings may indicate that the insulation has been thermally aged and may be at risk of failure. Physical inspection can be used to confirm if the insulation is dry and brittle.

52.204-13 SYSTEM FOR AWARD MANAGEMENT MAINTENANCE (JULY 2013)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number means the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B) to identify unique business entities, which is used as the identification number for Federal Contractors.

Data Universal Numbering System+4 (DUNS+4) number means the DUNS number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character suffix.) This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts (see the FAR at subpart 32.11) for the same concern.

Registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database means that—

(1) The Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4 number, the Contractor and Government Entity (CAGE) code, as well as data required by the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (see subpart 4.14), into the SAM database;

(2) The Contractor has completed the Core, Assertions, Representations and Certifications, and Points of Contact sections of the registration in the SAM database;

(3) The Government has validated all mandatory data fields, to include validation of the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The Contractor will be required to provide consent for TIN validation to the Government as a part of the SAM registration process; and

(4) The Government has marked the record ``Active''.

System for Award Management (SAM) means the primary Government repository for prospective Federal awardee and Federal awardee information and the centralized Government system for certain contracting, grants, and other assistance-related processes. It includes—

(1) Data collected from prospective Federal awardees required for the conduct of business with the Government;

(2) Prospective contractor-submitted annual representations and certifications in accordance with FAR subpart 4.12; and

(3) Identification of those parties excluded from receiving Federal contracts, certain subcontracts, and certain types of Federal financial and non-financial assistance and benefits.

(b) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis, from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates, its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.

(c)(1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, doing business as name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to—

(A) Change the name in the SAM database;

(B) Comply with the requirements of subpart 42.12 of the FAR; and

(C) Agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (c)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (c)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the ``Suspension of Payment'' paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

(2) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see FAR subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the SAM. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the ``Suspension of Payment'' paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

(3) The Contractor shall ensure that the DUNS number is maintained with Dun & Bradstreet throughout the life of the contract. The Contractor shall communicate any change to the DUNS number to the Contracting Officer within 30 days after the change, so an appropriate modification can be issued to update the data on the contract. A change in the DUNS number does not necessarily require a novation be accomplished. Dun & Bradstreet may be contacted—

(i) Via the internet at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform or if the Contractor does not have internet access, it may call Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 if located within the United States; or

(ii) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office.

(d) Contractors may obtain additional information on registration and annual confirmation requirements at https://www.acquisition.gov.
