Transformer, Fort Peck, MT FP100
SECTION 48 19 23.01 Page 1
Please find attached the three modified Sections of the Fort Peck transformer supply contract, to be posted as an amendment to the solicitation. The changes to the Sections are primarily to allow an additional design-type of bushing which is manufactured in the U.S. These changes should not affect the due date for the proposals. The changes to each Section include:
Sections 48 19 23.01 and 48 19 23.04:
1) Paragraph 2.6.1: The requirement was added for handhole access covers to be provided in the tank sidewall for access to each de-energized tap changer switch mechanism for future maintenance.
2) Paragraph 2.8: Changed the paragraph to allow a resin-impregnated synthetic design of bushing. Changed the paragraph to require either resin-impregnated paper or resin-impregnated synthetic bushings for the high-voltage, low-voltage and neutral bushings.
3) Paragraph 2.12.8: Changed the paragraph to relax the restriction of requiring a Reinhausen Tapmotion DD de-energized tap changer control.
4) Paragraph 2.19: Additional information provided for the storage material requirements for the spare bushings.
5) Paragraph 3.4.2: Specific requirements added for bushing partial discharge and power factor testing.
Section 48 19 23.02:
1) General corrections made to remove incorrect references to cooling fans (since these are ONAN cooled transformers).
2) Paragraph 2.8: Changed the paragraph to allow a resin-impregnated synthetic design of bushing. Changed the paragraph to require either resin-impregnated paper or resin-impregnated synthetic bushings for the high-voltage bushings.
3) Paragraph 2.19: Additional information provided for the storage material requirements for the spare high-voltage bushings.
4) Paragraph 3.4.2: Specific requirements added for bushing partial discharge and power factor testing.

25,000/33,333 KVA CLASS I GSU POWER TRANSFORMER (OPTIONAL)
PART 1 GENERAL
1.1 DESCRIPTION OF WORK
This Section covers the manufacturing and factory testing of one three-phase generator step-up (GSU) power transformer rated 25,000/33,333 kVA, 69 kV high-voltage, 13.8 kV low-voltage, Class ONAN/ONAF cooling, for delivery f.o.b. to Fort Peck power plant switchyard No. 1. The transformer shipment, hauling, site reassembly and field testing requirements are as required in SECTION 48 20 00. Throughout this Section, the transformer tank layout is identified by Segments 1 through 4, as defined in IEEE C57.12.10, Figure 1, and indicated on drawing E-109.
1.2 GENERAL ARRANGEMENT AND CONNECTED POWERTRAIN
1.2.1 General Arrangement
The transformer specified in this Section will replace one existing bank of single-phase transformers (Bank T2), presently located in the Fort Peck power plant switchyard No. 1. Reference drawings MFP-OPN93E103.6 and
MFP-OPN93E106.1 show the existing location of Transformer Bay 2. The new three-phase transformer shall be manufactured as required herein for concrete pad mounting. Interconnection of the transformer to the power plant equipment will be performed by a separate contractor.
1.2.2 Connected Powertrain
The new three-phase transformer shall be sized per the requirements of paragraph, "Ratings and Electrical Characteristics", to transmit the power of the connected hydrogenerators. The connected hydrogenerators operate at a rated power factor of 0.90.
