Site Electrical Distribution System

2.6.3.1 Existing Exterior Electrical Distribution System

2.6.3.1.1 The primary distribution system in Elmendorf Air Force Base is 12.47kV, 3-phase, 4-wire, grounded wye, 60Hz. The project site is served by an overhead primary distribution line that is part of feeder 22. See existing electrical site plan in the appendix.

2.6.3.1.2 At Pole 22-94, which is located outside the fence east of hangar 8, the overhead line transitions to underground and feeds transformer 2042. From transformer 2042, the underground line extends to transformer 907.

2.6.3.1.3 Transformer 2042 is a 500kVA, 3-phase padmount transformer that provides 208/120V, 3-phase secondary service to Bldg 14410. Transformer 907 is a 750kVA, 3-phase padmount transformer, which provides 480/277V, 3-phase secondary service to building 14410.

2.6.3.2 Alterations / Additions on the Exterior Electrical Distribution System

2.6.3.2.1 Pole 22-90 and the associated guys and anchors supporting this pole could be in conflict with the site development needed at the north end of building 14410. The D-B contractor shall be responsible for determining, designing, and implementing the most cost effective alteration on this portion of the overhead distribution system in order to free up the area for any site development required for the new building.

2.6.3.2.2 Currently, building 14410 is being served by two padmount transformers. Both of these transformers are underutilized based on the peak demand recorded on the respective meters at the secondary side of these transformers. The meter monitoring the load on the 208/120V secondary service lateral from the 500kVA transformer indicated a peak demand of 82kVA, which is 16.4% of the transformer full load rating. The meter monitoring the load on the 480/277V secondary service lateral from the 750kVA indicated a peak demand of 264kVA, which is 35.2% of the transformer full load capacity.

http://www.wbdg.org/ccb/browse_cat.php?c=3

1. The D-B contractor shall re-evaluate the demand on the existing service transformers taking into consideration any load change resulting from the renovation in building 14410.

2. Existing load determination shall be in accordance with NFPA 70, paragraph 220.87, Determining Existing Loads.

3. The electrical designer-of-record shall take the following into consideration to maximize utilization of the rated capacities of the existing service pad mount transformers:

A. If the 750kVA transformer has the capacity to support all electrical loads in the building (existing and new) and the total power demand of the 208/120V loads does not exceed 300kVA, all 208/120Vloads will be transferred to the 750kVA transformer to fully comply with article 230 of NFPA 70, which requires a building to be served by only one service. The D-B contractor shall be responsible for determining, designing, and implementing the most cost effective means of transferring loads from the 500kVA transformer to the 750kVA transformer.

B. If total power demand of the 208/120V loads (existing and new) will be greater than 300kVA but less than 400kVA, all 208/120V will be served from the 500kVA transformer pad mount transformer. This is in accordance with UFC 3-550-01 criteria, which requires use of separate oil-filled pad-mount transformers in lieu of one 480/277V service if the required 208/120V loads using dry-type transformers exceeds 40 percent of the 480V service transformer capacity.

2.6.3.2.3 D-B contractor shall design, provide, and install an underground lateral primary distribution line and underground secondary distribution service for the new Alert Crew Quarters / Squadron Operations building.

2.6.3.2.4 Where work on the existing distribution system requires power interruption, the D-B contractor shall determine and address scheduling and sequencing of outage requirement including outage duration.

The sequencing and scheduling shall be incorporated in the design plans. The D-B contractor shall identify temporary power requirements including the need for emergency generators for backup power during construction-related outages.

2.6.3.2.5 For delineation on application of NFPA 70 (NEC) and IEEE C2 (NESC) in the electrical distribution system design, comply with the guidelines of UFC 3-501-01, Chapter 2, 2-1.13.

2.6.3.2.6 The electrical designer-of-record shall ensure the service transformer are not oversized by following the load analysis guidelines of UFC 3-501-01, Chapter 3, 3-2.2. If available also use historical peak demand data of actual buildings of similar size and function. Coordinate with base energy manager for access of historical data.

2.6.3.2.7 Padmount transformers, switches, sectionalizing cabinets, and other distribution equipment that will require periodic maintenance and inspection shall be located at an area easily accessible by maintenance vehicle but location should also be selected such that any work around the equipment will not impede traffic. Padmount equipment shall have adequate clearance for hot stick work. Orient equipment so that adjacent equipment will not interfere with the clear workspace requirement. Provide bollards around the equipment in areas where equipment can be damaged due to vehicular traffic.

2.6.3.2.8 Design, selection, installation of exterior electrical distribution shall comply with criteria in UFC 3-550-01, Chapter 3.

The existing pole mounted security lights and associated underground circuits will need to be moved together with the fence to a new location.

Design, provide, and install additional perimeter fence security lighting as needed to meet minimum illumination requirement at the fence perimeter if the existing fixtures will not be adequate due to relocation and extension of the fence line.

2.6.4.2.2 The parking lot outside the fenced compound does not have area lighting. The D-B contractor shall determine if the existing area lighting at the vicinity of the parking lot will provide the minimum standard illumination required for a parking lot. If minimum illumination is not met, the D-B contractor shall design, provide and install additional lighting to meet minimum illumination requirement for a parking lot. To minimize spare inventory, use fixtures that match the existing LED fixtures used as area lights in the vicinity of the parking lot.

2.6.4.2.3 D-B contractor shall design, provide, and install all necessary alterations, except as noted otherwise in paragraph 2.6.4.2.4, on the existing access control, intrusion detection, and video surveillance system as a result of the relocation and extension of the fence line to the north. The design shall include any modifications needed on the whole system such as hardware and software modifications, reassigning of intrusion detection zones or sectors, reassigning of camera coverage in order to accommodate the relocation and extension of the fence line. The design shall be based upon the use of Vindicator V5 security panels, and devices compatible with the V5.

2.6.4.2.4 Alterations shall include any required extension and/or modifications of the power, signal, and communication pathways and cabling associated with the north perimeter fence, guard house and entry control point lighting, and existing components of access control, intrusion detection, and video surveillance systems. This includes modifications on the power branch circuit and protective device to accommodate any added loads associated with the area lighting and security system. New access control, intrusion detection, and video surveillance equipment, including card readers, bimetallic switches, motion sensors, control panels, processors, software modifications and reassignments, and video cameras will be furnished and installed by the Government. For equipment identified as GFGI, the Contractor shall design, furnish, and install pathways and cables only.

2.6.4.2.5 Components and equipment used in the alterations of the existing perimeter security and surveillance system shall be in the list of approved Air Force IDS equipment. See attached approval memo dated 26 January 2017. Existing security & surveillance system will have to be upgraded to ensure compatibility and compliance with the updated Air Force approved list of equipment.

Chapter 5 Exterior Applications; and Chapter 6 and 7 Security Lighting. Exterior lighting design shall take into consideration energy sustainability criteria such as minimizing light trespass and pollution. As much as possible minimize spare inventory by selecting light fixture with common type of light sources.

Site Telecommunications Distribution System

2.6.5.1 Existing Site Telecommunications Distribution System

2.6.5.1.1 Fiber optic and copper outside plant cabling serving building 14410 runs through manholes and underground duct bank system coming from the northeast side of the building. The cables go through HH E266A and a duct routed along the north side of the building, then enters the mechanical room at the north side of the building. The copper outside plant cable and the innerducts with the fiber optic comes out from the floor near the entry door of the mechanical room and go up just above door height and runs along the north wall of the mechanical room, supported by cable clamps. It then crosses the room via a cable tray to the backboard at the opposite wall.

2.6.5.1.2 The copper outside plant cable serving building 14410 is a 300-pair cable but only 200 pairs have been assigned to the building. The cable terminates inside three 100-pair protector panels that are mounted on the backboard. Adjacent to the protector panels are 66 punch blocks that terminate backbone cables. One of the terminal blocks terminate a 25 pair inter-building backbone cable that serves the guard house at the north entry control point.

2.6.5.1.3 Adjacent to the copper cable protector panel is a backboard mounted Corning connector housing. The two incoming outside plant single mode fiber optic cables terminate in this housing. One cable has 6 strands and the other has 12 strands. These cables provide a fiber optic link between building 14410 (Hangar 8) to building 16430 (Hangar 11).

2.6.5.2 Alterations / Additions on the Site Telecommunication Distribution System

2.6.5.2.1 Part of the renovation inside building 14410 will be to provide a dedicated space for the main telecommunication room inside the building. The D-B contractor shall design, provide, and install a new underground duct bank system that will be a more direct route form HH E266A to the main telecommunication room.

Premises Electrical Distribution System

2.6.6.1 Existing Premises Electrical Distribution System

2.6.6.1.1 Building 14410 (Hangar 8) has two electrical services. The building has a 208/120V, 3-phase wye, 4-wire service; and a separate 480/277V, 3-phase wye, 4-wire service.

2.6.6.1.2 As mentioned earlier, the 208/120V service comes from transformer 2042, a 500kVA transformer. The secondary lateral from the transformer runs to the service and metering equipment mounted outside on the exterior wall at the south side of tug house, in the vicinity of the electrical room.

The service conductors at the load side of the service enters the electrical room through the wall at the ceiling via a surface mounted conduit. The conductors terminate in the main distribution panel / motor control center that was from the original 1958 building. The loads served by this 208/120V service are the 208/120V loads that were part of the original 1958 building, mainly lighting and power receptacles at the main hangar space and the electrical loads in the boiler room. The main distribution panel is located at the north wall of the electrical room, and two panels (B and C) serving the branch circuits for the hangar are located at the opposite wall. Panel A is located adjacent to the main panel. The branch circuits in panel A are mainly loads from mechanical system, such as exhaust fans, unit heaters, steam valve for hangar door track heater. It also has circuits for the rain gutter heat trace, which was added in 1985 at the east side of the building.

2.6.6.1.3 The 480/277V service comes from transformer 907, a 750kVA transformer. In the original 1958 building, this service was a 416/240V service used solely for the 100A, 3-phase receptacles. In 1981 when the hangar was expanded and the squadron operations was added to the north side of the building, the 416/240V service was upgraded to 480/277V service. A 480/277V main panel (SE) was added that time. This main panel is presently located on the north wall of the electrical room. This main panel provides feeders to the 100A, 480V, 3-phase receptacles. This main panel also provides feeders to the 480/277V panels (E, M, M1 H) that were added to the expanded building. The 208/120V loads that were added during this expansion are served by branch circuits from 208/120V panels (E1, E2, H1, GH1, GH2, J, LC, S, S1, T) that are sub-fed from the 480/277V panels via step down dry type transformers. A 1987 electrical plan shows another upgrade of the electrical system. The transformer was upgraded to the present power rating and the outdoor switchboard (TR) that is adjacent to this transformer was added that time. The outdoor switchboard was added to provide more 480V feeders for 400A, 480V power receptacles. The SE panel, which was previously fed direct from the transformer, is sub-fed from this outdoor switchboard. There is a service meter mounted at the side of the outdoor switchboard.

2.6.6.1.4 Building service equipment disconnecting means shall be a heavy duty switch mounted on the wall outside of the building at a readily accessible location. If the main service panel is a switchboard or panelboard with a main breaker located inside an electrical room the disconnecting means may be a shunt trip device located outside mounted on a wall at a readily accessible location. The service equipment disconnecting means shall comply with the NFPA 70, Article 230, Part VI.

2.6.6.1.5 Building 14410 has two types of standby power system. One is a permanently installed 35kW, 480/277V, 3-phase diesel generator installed at the pump room located at the south side of the building.

This generator provides standby power to panel E via a 70A, 3-pole automatic transfer switch. The utility side of this transfer switch is connected to a feeder from main panel SE. The other standby power system is intended for connection of a portable or mobile alternate power source.

907) is in open position and has a note indicating it should not be operated because the feeder conduit is broken. This is a disconnect switch for the feeder of the 400A, 480V outlet at the AGE shop. The D-B contractor shall verify if the receptacle is still needed at the AGE shop. If the receptacle is still required at the AGE shop the cabling and pathway shall be replaced. Provide and install new cabling in galvanized rigid metallic conduit.

2.6.6.2.3 The 208/120V main distribution panel and sub-distribution panels in the electrical room that are connected to the 208/120V service shall be upgraded. These panels were part of the 1950’s building.

See paragraph 2.6.3.2.2 of this narrative for considerations to made on the redesign of the 480/277V and 208/120V services to the building.

1. High power consuming loads that are rated 208V or 120V, which will require upgrading as part of this project, shall be replaced with 480V or 277V rated equipment so that they can be connected to the 480/277V distribution system.

2. Other equipment that are more suitable at the 208V or 120V rating shall be served from new 208/120V panels that will be sub-fed from the 480/120V distribution system through step-down dry type transformers if conditions in 2.6.3.2.2 are met.

3. All new panels and any required step-down dry type transformer shall be installed inside the building near the area where the loads being served are located. The intent is to free up space in the existing electrical room and to minimize voltage drop on the 208V/120V distribution system. The existing electrical room is only 8 feet by 10 feet.

4. When electrical equipment and electrical cabling pathways are installed in the hangar area, as much as possible install them at a height that is not within hazardous classified area of the hangar. This is to minimize the need for equipment that is listed for hazardous location or the need for cablings and pathways suitable for hazardous location. Hazardous (classified) locations in the hangar are in accordance with NFPA 70 article 513 if fueling, defueling or engine starting, is not done inside the hangar. Minor fuel removal, such as draining of fuel lines, as part of repair work is not considered defueling.
