The Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region, has a requirement for the design and installation of five draw out type Generator Circuit Breakers and associated equipment. The project will be to procure and install five 15.5kV 3000A generator rated vacuum or SF6 breakers at Davis Dam. This is to include the modification of the existing iso-phase bus on units 1, 2, and 4 to accommodate the new switchgear. For units 3 and 5 there is existing switchgear that it might be possible to retrofit to accept the new unit breakers and associated equipment. The breakers would need to have remote open/close capability and be connected to the existing Protection/SCADA systems in the control room. Additionally in the breaker cabinet new current transformers would be installed and connected to the SCADA system. Before the new switchgear is turned over to the government the maintenance crew at Davis Dam will need to be trained in the operations and maintenance of the new equipment.

Furnish and install five generator-service circuit breakers, five disconnect switches and five ground switches. C. Furnish and install two current transformers per phase on each side of the Unit circuit breakers. D. Furnish and install single phase sync potential transformer w/ lockable secondary switch on the system-side of each unit circuit breaker. E. Modify existing isolated-phase bus and furnish and install new isolated-phase bus as needed to connect new circuit breakers to existing isolated-phase bus. F. Remove current transformers/potential transformers located in the iso-phase bus. G. Furnish spare parts, to include one spare circuit breaker, and special tools as required. Include listing with all parts and tools including part number, price, catalog number, part description, and reference drawing number. H. Furnish parts, adapters or equipment required to perform the field tests (Leakage, Gauge, Stored Energy System, Electrical Resistance of Current Path, Clearance and Mechanical Adjustment, Timing, and Power Frequency Withstand Voltage) not currently in possession of BOR Davis Dam. I. Wiring database/as-built drawings containing all the wiring information for the cables included in this work scope.
