The U.S. Marine Corps is conducting a market survey to seek sources, contract vehicles, technical information, and approximate costing for portable power supplies.

The dimensions of equipment currently in use are 15 x 18 x 18 inches and the weight is approximately 55 lbs. Input power sources for the candidate power supply are worldwide commercial 115/220 volts AC (50 or 60 Hz) and military 24/28 volts DC utilizing generator and vehicle power. Output receptacles required for TPCS connections are (6) 24 VDC red receptacles, (3) 12 VDC black receptacles, and (6) 24 VDC black receptacles. Size, weight, cost, ruggedness, reliability, portability, operating temperature, availability for procurement, modifications required to run TPCS equipment and lead times for all modifications are all major concerns. An uninterruptable power system (UPS) is a desired, but not required, capability. System safety features, mechanical and electrical, are required for both operators and maintainers.
