Description
The US Fish and Wildlife Service is seeking a contractor to install an emergency backup generator at the Jones Hole National Fish Hatchery in Utah. The scope of work includes load testing the generator, modifying the existing concrete pad, and installing new electrical components. The generator is already on-site, and the contractor will need to coordinate with Moon Lake Power Company to shut off the power to the facility for load testing. The contract will require the contractor to provide circuit protection to prevent overloading and ensure that the installation meets National Electric Code standards.
Some key points to consider:
• The generator is a 500 kW Kohler Diesel Generator, Model 500REOZJC.
• The contractor will need to remove a 6’ x 8’ x 1’ section of the existing concrete pad and pour a new section to replace it.
• The contractor will need to install new underground conduits and pull new wires.
• The existing transformer has a capacity of 350 KW, and the contractor will need to ensure that the new generator is compatible with it.
• The contractor will need to provide a certified Kohler installer to maintain the warranty.
