Portal Electrical Pedestals FY23 Q and A

1. You reference to match the existing pedestal; can you please provide the existing part number and manufacture for reference. It calls out to install a metal pre manufactured electrical pedestal with a concrete base, and as long as you stick to those guidelines we should be

ok. Below is an example of what is at the ports.

2. You also mention head bolt heater and head bolt receptacle, I’m assuming the head bolt heater is in reference to a style of engine block heater and head bolt receptacle is just referring to the actual receptacle in the pedestal? This is correct, sorry to make this confusing.

3. How many receptacles would you like at each pedestal? One duplex receptacle for two plugins.

4. Can you also provide a picture of the existing panel these would be fed from so the correct breakers can be included in the pricing. I am sorry I do not have any pictures of the existing panel at this moment.

5. I see no mention of wiring methods or conductor size, are we to assume that installing current NEC state standards would be sufficient? That is correct, we are going to pretend to be the experts in how this gets done and we will rely on the general contractors knowledge on the basis that all requirements will derive from the p-100 and NEC standards.
