The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), South Atlantic Division (SAD) has identified a requirement for the upgrade of its generator control system.

This contract and effort extents to 13 hydropower facilities in the SAD region (Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida).

This is critical to the Southeastern Power Administration (SEPA) mission to support the power needs of its customers in the Southeast and operate the electric grid reliably. The award will result in a Firm Fixed Price Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Single Award Task Order Contract (SATOC). The SATOC will have a performance period of five(5) years or until capacity is exhausted. Capacity will be $15 million. This contract will not be subject to Cost Accounting Standard, nor will certified cost or pricing information be required. Contractor tasks and required submittals will be specified under each Task Order executed under this contract. This contract will provide immediate response capacity for order of control cabinets specified herein. These control cabinets will be used as Remote Terminal Units (RTU) for a Programable Logic Control (PLC) system. Task Orders will be issued on an as-required basis.

1.2 General Services.

The contractor will provide assembled cabinets to the hydropower facilities specified in each task order. Certain specified brands must be used internal to the cabinets.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

3.1.1 General

For the purposes of this contract, the term "internal wiring" shall be used to designate the Contractor's factory installed wiring furnished with the furnished equipment. Different voltages shall not be run within the same multiconductor cable.

3.1.2 Bends

The minimum radius to which an insulated conductor or a multiconductor cable may be bent, without specific approval, whether permanently or temporarily during installation, shall be 12 times the overall diameter of the completed cable for tape shielded cables and 10 times the overall diameter for other cables. In these instances where this radius is not possible, approval will be required for minimum radii as specified in NFPA

70. For multiconductor cable, follow manufacturer's recommendation for type of cable involved.

3.1.3 Splices

Splices will not be permitted any where inside the control cabinet.

3.1.4 Terminations

All internal wire terminations shall be made using wire ferrules with the exception of PT/CT signal wires. PT/CT signal wires shall terminate on post terminals using ring tongue terminals and devices using wire ferrules.

Submit all terminals and associated cimping tools that will be used. The shield and shield insulating jacket of shielded signal cables and conductors, if applicable, shall be maintained to a point as close to the terminals as possible. The shield insulating jacket shall not be stripped from the shield except where necessary to make the ground connection. All signal cable shields shall be grounded at one end only.

Spare conductors shall be terminated on an available unused terminal of a terminal block and labled as SPARE at both ends, or if left unterminated shall have the exposed ends wrapped in insulating tape and labled as SPARE at both ends.

3.1.5 Wire Marking

All wires and cables shall be identified on both ends by the designations as shown on the Contract drawings or as otherwise shown on approved shop drawings. All wires and cables shall be clearly identified with the cable designation by tube-type markers as described in subparagraph Marking.

Wires, cables and individual conductors of multiconductor cables shall be identified with markers at each termination. Installed markers shall be uniform in position on the wire and cable, and legends shall be visible when conductors are terminated at the equipment.

3.1.5.1 Marking

Tubing shall be sized to fit the wire being marked and shall have permanent black marking on a light colored background. Tube-type markers shall be suitable for contact with the type of insulation material used. The markers shall have been tested by an independent testing laboratory or by the manufacturer to indicate that the markers will not stain or discolor when subjected to an accelerated aging test while in contact with wire insulating materials and ultraviolet light exposure.

'As shipped' drawings which require revisions shall be submitted to the Owner's Representative for review prior to the actual field review of these drawings against the panel construction.

This process of revision and review of the drawings will be repeated as necessary to produce drawings which reflect the actual construction of the panel at the time of shipment. Do not ship panels to the site until the 'as-shipped' drawings are updated, complete, and reflect the actual 'as-shipped' status of the panel. Provide an 11"x17" paper copy of the final as-shipped drawings inside the shipped cabinet.

Shop drawings shall be dimensioned and to-scale where appropriate, and show:

a. Enclosure details

b. Panel layout

c. Arrangement, connection, and interconnection of PLC system components

d. Wiring access locations

e. Wiring diagrams

f. Instrument loop diagrams.
