Official Copy for Bidding 3 of 4 Addendum No. 1, November 28, 2018

4 Item No. AD-1.2 / RFC #2019PW299-8 It was mentioned by another contractor on the job walk that the vault by Maintenance Operation had 3-point 200A loadbreak junctions which were not visible during job walk and also mentioned that Wargin Hall vault was likely to be a straight splice on all 3 conductors to OFC switches in Wargin Hall electric room. My question is to you what type of splice or connection would be owner specified? Since existing MV cable will need to be tested prior to splice and also the new MV cable with terminations installed. We could set up another loadbreak 200A elbows with 2-point junction inside the vault for servicing. Is this preferred? For bidding purposes include separable splices in the bid. The intent is for the successful contractor to duplicate the existing splicing technique within the structures. ITEM No. 2; CONTRACT DOCUMENTS 1.
