Anaheim Public Utilities is seeking 30 automated, double-sided pad-mounted switchgear units for an electric distribution retrofit and evaluation. - Government buyer: City of Anaheim, Public Utilities Department, Electric Division / Electrical Engineering Division. - Primary equipment: 15 PDSD-9 units (stock code E498240M) and 15 PDSD-10 units (stock code E498245M), each with an integrated automation cabinet. Both are 15 kV, 95 kV BIL designs to City Specification E-153, with automated 600 A switch ways. PDSD-9 also has two sets of 200 A ways; PDSD-10 has four 600 A ways. - OEMs named: ABB/Elastimold, Eaton, and G&W Electric are identified as approved switchgear manufacturers. Automation and component names include Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories (SEL; also written “Schwitzer”), Landis+Gyr, Cisco, Anterex (also referenced as Anterix), and Cleaveland Price. Cisco networking equipment is supplied and installed by APU; the cabinet must accommodate it. - Automation components: SEL 487E protection relay and SEL-3530-4 RTAC; Landis+Gyr 2510 LG Series 5 WanGate radio with associated cabling; and an external TRAB9023NP antenna. The specified Cisco IE3500-8T3X-A industrial Ethernet switch is APU-furnished. - Notable requirements: A weatherproof 304 stainless-steel automation cabinet must be mountable beside the switchgear or up to 50 feet away. Automated 600 A ways require motor operators or magnetic actuators and control cables; designs also require specified voltage sensing, current transformers, connectors, and CT shorting provisions. Equipment must comply with City Specification E-153. - Evaluation and delivery: Anaheim may request three initial units of each stock code for testing; production of the remaining units depends on written City authorization after evaluation. Proposals must include technical submittals, drawings, specifications, test information, pricing, lead times, delivery commitments, warranty, training, and post-delivery/on-site support. The City may select either or both stock codes. - Other specification item: PDSS-11 (E498238M) appears in the specification as a single-sided reference configuration; it is not among the 30 units requested.
