The proposed project is a Design-Build to construct a high-voltage Substation. Work includes the construction of a medium voltage substation with 2-120kV Circuit Switchers and concrete pads, power transformers (2- 40MVA, 120kV/13.2kV, 3 phase) and concrete pad; and secondary switchgears (15kV two (2) line up with tie breaker and connecting underground cables and conduits, with associated concrete encased distribution loops, underground cable vault and cabling and all associated duct banks with cabling. Work also includes a lower-voltage substation, distribution transformers (2-10MVA, 13.2kV/4.8kV, 3 phase), switchgear (15kV rated but operated at 4.8kV), duct banks and cabling, intercept and splice or reroute existing 4.8kV cables to the new switchgears. Equipment will be sized and compatible with existing electrical infrastructure. Supporting facilities includes reconfiguring existing underground utilities, site development and improvements, paving, parking, walkways, fencing, storm drainage, site improvements, information systems, and communications. Building information systems and antiterrorism measures for this project are unique in nature and not included in the unit cost of the building.
