LEASE SPECIFICATION: TEMPORARY ELECTRICAL (TELEC) @ NLON / LA

TELEC SPECIFICATION SHEET 2 OF 4

B LEASE SPECIFICATION — TELEC DESIGN CRITERIA

a. The standard electrical power cable assemblies readily available for lease are: (a) single conductor; (b) generally, fifty-foot in length (50'L); (c) have male and female cam-lock (cam-M/F) connectors (Cam-Lok®: E1016 "J" Series);

and (d) primarily either 2/0 (00) cable or 4/0 (0000) cable.

b. Cables are rated for a continuous amperage capacity (ampacity at 30ºC or 86ºF ambient) of either 300 amperes for single conductor 2/0 cable or 405 amperes for single conductor 4/0 cable. The commercial industry uses multiple cables for temporary installations when the ampacity requirements is greater than what can be carried by a single cable. Ground cables need only carry half the continuous power.

c. Temporary Services [Electric] Shop (x99E) prefers electrical lugs to be single-width because of limited space and electrical cable assemblies to be single-conductor for to prevent an out-of-phase connection.

d. The estimated quantity of fifty-foot long (50'L) power cables (excludes ground cables to be made to length) is 300.

200 FT/CABLE-Φ [RUN] ÷ 50 FT/CABLE [EA] × 25 CKT (10 CB/SS × 2 SS + 5 CB) × 3 Φ / CKT) = 300 ÷ 3 LOTS = 100 CABLE / LOT

3. LITERATURE: Although the Bidder shall make known any variances to the Technical Specifications, synopsized literature describing the proposed machinery, i.e. Equipment Data Sheet (EDS), shall be submitted with the bid to Contracting for probable review by the Technical Liaison as to whether the proposal conforms to the requirement.

4. PROPOSAL: As a standard format for comparing potential Vendors, the Contractor shall quote the weekly lease rate for each ITEM type and capacity based on a minimum lease duration of twelve (12) consecutive weeks or as scheduled in the RFP, whichever is less, with the option to extend thereafter. Due consideration for transport fees may be accorded by the Contracting Office to the Vendor if the actual rental period is less than the minimum or scheduled lease duration. The cost of start-up, initial operation, and training shall be included as part of the lease. Daily extensions for each ITEM with its associated ancillary hardware shall be billed at no greater than one-seventh of the stated recurring weekly lease rate. Price comparison is based on the Government's expected lease duration to include anticipated EXTENSIONS and to obtain a similar affect albeit Vendor differences.

5. REPAIR: The Vendor shall formally (i.e. written, E-mail is sufficient) inform the following Points-of-Contact (POCs):

(a) CONTRACT Office and/or SHIPYARD Administrator / COR if above $150K, for documentation purposes and then

TELEC SPECIFICATION SHEET 4 OF 4

H LEASE SPECIFICATION — GENERIC REQUIREMENTS

1. CONSTRUCTION: Except as noted for a particular machine type, units shall be a single integrated framed structure manufactured as a complete entity to include all devices, accessories, and fittings necessary to perform the function for which it was designed. Each unit shall be capable of continuous, year-round, outdoor, unmanned operation even at minimal loading while exposed from inclement (NBPL) to extremely harsh (PNSY & NLON) weather (e.g. deep snow, strong & gusty winds, and/or heavy rain) and varied ambient conditions (–14 to +110°F & 0 to 100% RH). Machines shall meet State and federal requirements for its type such as the National Electrical Code (NEC) for electrical devices / components and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) for pressurized vessels / components. For emission producing machinery as required by the State, the Contractor shall obtain permits for the duration of the lease and affix them onto the units. Machines shall be modular in design so as to act as a stand-alone unit; compact so as to fit in the tight confines of a drydock; portable so as to be transported by forklift and then lifted by crane; and ruggedly constructed so as to endure a marine industrial environment. Multiple machines of the same type and capacity shall be of similar design and construction.

Machines shall either be fabricated or completely refurbished and factory tested within twelve (12) years.

2. DOCUMENTATION: Documentation will be located within a water proof case affixed to each machine. Minimally, the documentation shall consist of: (i) Technical Instructions (TIs) such as an Operations & Maintenance Manual, Controls Manual, and/or Electrical Manual with Schematics; (ii) instructions and a diagram on Lifting & Handling the equipment with its padeye(s) Certification; (iii) government Contract Number to include the cover sheet to the rental Contract; (iv) an Equipment Data Sheet (EDS), preferably on a single sheet of paper (can be double-sided), of the quintessential aspects of the rental machine to include a fan curve for machines with built-in air-handlers; (v) simple Operating Instructions, if not in the TIs; (vi) points of contact with telephone numbers for requesting emergency repair regardless of the time or type of day; and (vii) a copy of the Quality Checklist.

3. ELECTRICAL: Electrical components shall conform to a NEMA standard (NEMA 3 or 4) that allows for unsheltered outdoor use of the unit. Unless by exception, each machine shall require only one type/source of electrical power of either 115 VAC5% / single-phase / 60 hertz or 460 VAC5% / three-phase / 60 hertz. The type of electrical power required (voltage & amperage) must be clearly indicated on the outside of the equipment, readily detected, and collocated with all other electrical information. If not included in the synopsized EDS, the Vendor shall provide the Project Technical Liaison with the following details: (i) electrical power type (amperage & voltage);

(ii) type of electrical connectors (for 3Φ, specify whether or not equivalent to Duraline E1016); (iii) breaker type/size or recommended capacity for the electrical source; and (iv) whether the machine is furnished with over-current protection. Three phase powered (i.e. 460V) machines shall have panel-mounted male camlock connectors equivalent to a single Duraline E1016 for each phase if ≤285A (preferred, permits 2/0 cable) or ≤385A (minimum, but restricted to 4/0 cable) or below and equivalent multiple connectors for greater amperages.

4. LIFTING & HANDLING: Unless exempted in advance, machines shall be firmly attached to a single rigid metal (steel if ≥3K#) caged frame (base boxed w/ four vertical corner posts and four horizontal perimeter beams at top) with both multiple slots for forklift handling and preferably, welded lifting padeye(s), which would result in and permit for safe single point lift operation using an overhead crane without special lifting or handling gear. To minimize a rigging delay or postponement, lifting points other than the preferred welded lifting padeye(s) (e.g. holes drilled thru structural members or bolted padeyes / eyelets) will require an advance design review - consultation -analysis by the Shipyard's Rigging Engineer (Code 713). The design safety factor for each lifting padeye or point shall be at least five (5) times the load based on ultimate strength. For equipment with two (2) or three (3) padeyes / points evenly spaced, the machine’s weight can be considered equally distributed. For equipment with four (4) padeyes / points, the loading shall be as if each lift point would support half of the machine’s weight. The strongest preference is for multiple padeyes to be aligned in the plane of the lift (i.e. padeyes point towards the center) and to be located above the machine’s Center of Gravity (CG). If the lift points are located below the CG, then the machine’s CG shall be accurately indicated as to both its elevation and position. The Contractor shall provide certification that each lift point meets the criteria described above by design (5 to 1 ultimate strength & 3 to 1 minimum yield) or by load test (2 to 1 w/ no yield). Such certification to include the Lifting Schematic along with any other lifting data shall be included with the documentation attached to the machine. Refer to L&H NOTES.

NOTICE: The precise weight of each machine to include its caged frame shall be prominently displayed.

5. NOISE: When operating at full speed, noise level must not be over 105 dB[A] (presumes hearing protection of 20 dB[A]) and preferably, less than 85 dB[A] (hearing protection threshold) at six feet from the unit or frame unless a quieter noise level is specified. A hearing protection safety placard shall be posted on each machine generating 85 dB[A] or more at the unit's edge or frame. To equate noise level on acoustically reflective (hard) surface (site), noise intensity (energy) is cut by a quarter, i.e. reduced by 6 dB[A], as distance is doubled. Hence, a noise rating of 91 dB[A] at 3 feet and conversely, a noise level of 79 dB[A] at 12 feet are both equivalent to 85 dB[A] at 6 feet.

6. PROHIBITION: For nuclear shipyards with radiological controls, the colors yellow or magenta on either machinery or associated equipment are strictly prohibited unless approval is requested w/ pictures showing the colors prior to bid submission so that the particular machine / equipment color would be known for an RC List of Exceptions.
