NASA plans a two-phase Design-Build project to replace and upgrade the degraded power distribution system in the Launch Complex (LC)-39 Area at Kennedy Space Center. The existing system, built in the 1960s with “Orangeburg” pipes, has exceeded its lifespan, leading to failures and maintenance challenges. Key deficiencies include deteriorated pipes, issues at the C-5 substation, and poor condition Vacuum Fault Interrupters at LC-39B. The project aims to replace aged medium voltage feeders, increase capacity for future growth, and enhance power reliability. Goals involve constructing a new duct bank raceway system, installing new MV feeder cabling, improving operations and maintenance with sectionalizer cabinets, building a new indoor switchgear facility at C-5B, and consolidating MV equipment at Pad 39B into a new switching station. Jacobs Engineering is developing a Design Criteria Package for Phase 2 of the solicitation.
