The federal government is seeking proposals for the procurement of three-phase pad-mounted transformers with specific power ratings and technical requirements. The transformers must conform to specifications including 112.5, 150, 300, 500, and 750 kVA capacities, with appropriate voltage settings of 12kV/120/208V or 12.47kV/480V. Key features required are all-stainless-steel construction, a dead-front design, strong locking mechanisms, and copper windings filled with non-PCB mineral oil. The transformers must include safety and operational features such as automatic pressure relief, load break switches, tapping options, and instrumentation gauges. They need to comply with relevant efficiency standards and include necessary labeling, including a “UL Listed” mark. The document outlines a commitment to safety, consistency in performance (measured through DGA testing), and environmental considerations through the specified finishes. This RFP reflects the government's intent to upgrade and maintain reliable energy infrastructure while ensuring compliance with safety and efficiency regulations.
