Construct Transformer Pad

DESCRIPTION:

Contractor shall provide all material, labor, equipment, and supervision required to build a concrete pad for a three-phase oil-filled transformer. Pad specifications are provided in the Electric System Bulletin (ESB) 759B July 2010 that can be downloaded from http://www.nationalgridus.com/electricalspecifications. ESB 759B is also included with this Statement of Work (SOW) as Attachment 1. Should there be any conflicting requirements between the ESB 759B and the SOW, Contractor shall bring the conflict to the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) before proceeding with material purchase and/or construction. In ESB 759B, please note that references to the “Company” refer to National Grid.

ESB 759B requires Contractor to coordinate inspections with National Grid and the Base throughout construction.

1. PROJECT SCOPE
