    The document outlines a series of recent questions and answers regarding the IQA Test Stand project, focusing on electrical and gearbox testing requirements under a federal RFP. Key points include specifications for existing circuits that need to comply with the new Square D QED-2 Switchboard, including details on breaker models and current load demands. It confirms that larger MCM cables can replace existing ones to accommodate increased capacity, although specific lug details are not yet available. The document clarifies that past experience does not need to meet specific torque or rpm requirements but should involve comparable projects. Jet engine test cells utilizing open-loop systems are deemed irrelevant for gearbox testing; however, experiences with turboshaft gear-reduction gearboxes are considered relevant. This document serves to guide contractors in meeting project specifications and understanding relevant experience criteria in the context of federal RFP objectives.
