The project contains two (2) 27.368 MVA capacity generating units which began operating in 1965. This project is needed because the existing 480V power distribution equipment at Sam Rayburn is obsolete, making operation and maintenance very challenging. The main switchgear lineup and the main lighting panel were manufactured by Federal Pacific, and the fingers on the stabs of the draw-out breakers have fallen apart when withdrawn from the cubicle. The main switchgear is also located in the control room very close to the operator's console. This is an unnecessary hazard that will be addressed by relocating the switchgear.
