Scattered Site Electric Service Panel Replacement at 20 dwellings. Bids are request to replace 20 electric service panels and add two or three new circuits. Questions contact Karl Opheim, Assistant Director at (989) 892-9582, ext.107 or Karl@baycityhousing.com. This project will replace the existing 100-amp electric service panel with a new panel at 20 residential duplex dwellings owned by the Bay City Housing Commission. A single contract will be awarded to all work described in this project. Scope of work. The Bay City Housing Commission residential dwellings were constructed in 1969 with Cutler-Hammer 100-amp electric service panels, each panel is in an unfinished basement. We are requesting bids to replace this panel with Square D QO or Homeline 150 amp, 30-space electrical panel at the existing basement location. Bids must include all necessary labor, all breakers (a mix of 30, 20 and 15 amp. They do not need to be ground fault rated) and service grounding as required by municipal electrical code. In addition to replacing the service panel, two or three new 20-amp circuits will need to be run from the panel to each bedroom on the second floor. This will be a single recessed outlet to be located near the window for future air conditioner placement. For these circuits, it will be necessary to cut some openings in gypsum wall for transitioning the new wiring vertically between floors. Any opening must be repaired to original condition. Any new circuit wiring using the attic will need the cellulose insulation returned to even level as found. Additionally, 11 service panels will need to be relocated from its present location because it does not have 'clear access.' Mast wiring from the meter to panel should not need updating however an additional ground rod, one ground bridge and its wiring are required. Contractor may find a dwelling unit needs a 240-volt, 30 amp circuit ran for a gas dryer or basement is without a 120-volt, 15 amp duplex outlet if none is present or bonding of a water heater does not meet code. Please contact maintenance crew leader if you find either of these conditions present. BCHC will allow a change order for correction. All new service panels must have specifically labeled circuits identifying each room, fixtures or equipment in typed lettering. Bids shall include all necessary municipal permits as per code (estimate is $127 per dwelling) and sales taxes. The list of addresses where panels will be replaced are on page three.
