XTLF 25-1097 AIRFIELD ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION STUDY Conduct an airfield electrical distribution study where the outcomes will safeguard the maintenance staff and aircraft navigation of the airfield during various operations such as taxiing, approach landing and takeoff. The study will contain a field investigation, a description of work in both narrative form and in drawings, an analysis of existing conditions, a sensitivity/risk assessment through evaluating opportunities and constraints associated with the study solution, recommendation to correct deficiencies, an estimate of probable construction cost, and a construction timeline. Vance AFB airfield utilizes three runways for its mission. The center runway is the most updated of the three that includes updated lighting. The west runway has not been updated since construction completion in 2017 and the east runway has updated edge lighting in 2019. The airfield study will evaluate the airfield electrical distribution condition and provide recommendations to repair distribution system that includes all three runways, taxiways, aprons and their light configurations. The evaluation will include transformers, backup generators and power equipment for airfield lighting applications, conductor integrity for lighting distributions, lighting equipment, isolation transformers and access points. Additionally, evaluation will be needed on currently approved airfield waivers which will be impacted by recommendation of airfield equipment repair. To create the study, the A-E team is to perform a detailed survey of the existing airfield cited above using all applicable UFCs and Air Force guidance and provide detailed documentation of observed deficiencies which will impact the ability of the airfield to support the updated UFC and Air Force guidance. Observations and recommendations include: Evaluate lighting vault, building 197, equipment conditions that support airfield lighting. After evaluation, identifying strategies for repairing or replacing degraded systems. This includes, but not limited to, transformers, power panels, backup generators, Continuous Current Regulators (CCR), conductors and conduits. Evaluate airfield�s lighting power system distribution and equipment. After evaluation, identify strategies for repairing or replacing degraded systems. This evaluation includes, but is not limited to, wiring distribution, conduits, access points, isolation transformers, capacitors, lighting equipment and signs. Identifying the impact of full compliance with Executive Order 14057, Electrification of Federal Facilities for all building systems which are significantly modified or replaced. Costs and impact to existing building infrastructure and space to be documented for each applicable system. Evaluate and provide recommendations for lighting solutions for use in areas affected by the proposed repair.� Perform airfield conductor insulation integrity test by performing a conductor insulation test. Perform a photometric test for 20% of each different type of light source. Perform an infrared reading within opened power panels, CCR terminations and each termination to ensure good connections. Perform field investigation to verify buried duct bank integrity. Potholing methods to asses condition of known ductbanks, as determined by Vance AFB and the AE firm.� Estimates of probable construction cost are required for this study and must be prepared using the Corps of Engineers Micro Computer Aided Cost Estimating System (MCACE) � Second Generation (MII). 3.
