3.2.6.2 PRESSURE
The tank shall be equipped with a Qualitrol #202-014-01 or 202-030-01 pressure relief device or a
pressure relief cover. If a pressure relief cover is used, the cover assembly shall remain effectively sealed
for overloads and external secondary short circuits of the magnitude and duration allowed by industry
standards and loading guides, but shall relieve pressure at a minimum of 8 psi gauge if designed to reseal;
or at a minimum of 20 psig if designed for pressure relief without resealing. If a pressure relief cover is
used, a manual means of venting the tank before removal of the cover shall be provided. Regardless of
which means of pressure relief is provided, the tank and other components of the tank shall be of sufficient
strength to withstand, without damage or permanent distortion, the pressures occurring prior to pressure
relief, as well as pressures occurring due to normal overloads and external secondary short circuits.

3.2.7 LOSSES
The total losses of a transformer shall be the sum of the excitation losses and the load losses (I2R
losses). Load loss tests shall be performed and reported on all units regardless of whether or not a
record of such tests is available on duplicate units. Loss evaluations and loss costs will be based on
the values shown in the "Special Conditions and Supplemental Instructions to Bidders." Transformers
will be evaluated on excitation losses and I2R losses at the specified rates. If tested losses exceed
quoted losses but are within the tolerances of paragraph 9.3, ANSI C57.12.00-2000, the additional cost
incurred from the differential of losses will be calculated using the following equation and the above
specified rates and will be deducted from the original Purchase Order or back charged to the
manufacturer. In the following equation "Units" shall mean 'Transformers of the same size and design
on one order."
Excess loss $ _ [No. of units] [(No Load Loss Evaluation $) (Avg. No Load Losses - Quoted No Load
Losses) + (Load Loss Evaluation $) (Avg. Load Losses - Quoted Load Losses)]. If this equation results
in a negative number, no credit will be given the Supplier.
If any unit or units exceed the tolerances of paragraph 9.3, ANSI C57.12.00-2000, that unit or units shall
not be shipped without express permission from the City. If accepted, the deduction for excess losses
will be based on the following equation: Excess loss $ _ (No Load Loss Evaluation $) (No Load Losses
- Quoted No Load Losses) But Not Less Than Zero + (Load Loss Evaluation $) (Load Losses - Quoted
Losses) But Not Less Than Zero.
