The principal components of work that will be completed under this project include the following: 1) Manufacturing and factory testing one (1) step-down transformer. 2) Delivery to and placement of transformer on existing foundation. 3) Erection of appurtenant equipment including bushings, arrestors, radiators, and filling of insulating oil. 4) Field testing, commissioning, and startup services. The requirement is to furnish and field test one (1) 2,500 kVA, 65-degree C rise, three-phase, fluid-filled, outdoor, step-down transformer. Low side to be connected in grounded wye and high side connected delta. Type: Three-phase, outdoor, step-down Transformer Class: IEEE Class II Capacity and Temp Rise: 2,500 kVA, 65-degrees C rise Frequency: 60-hz High Side: 100 kV with 550kV BIL Low Side: 4.16 kV with 110kV BIL Impedance: 8.7% on a 2500 kVA base Tank Type: Sealed Winding: Copper Insulating Fluid: FR3 De-Energized High Tap Changer: +/- 5%, +/-10% Elevation: 4305 feet above sea level Seismic Level: Moderate Delivery, placement, erection, and startup will occur over a single outage period after the existing transformer has been removed. Erection will include the placement and connection of bushings, arrestors, radiators, and anchoring. Outage will occur between October through April due to seasonal operation of the pumping plant the substation serves.
