transformer will remain effectively sealed for a top -oil temperature range of -50C to 105°C.
3.2.2.9TANKS
The tank shall be domed or sloped to shed water. The tank shall be of sufficient strength to support a
minimum of 500 lbs. vertical load. Construction of the tank shall be in accordance with ANSI C57.12.25-
1981, paragraphs 6.1 and 6.6.

3.2.2.9.1 The cover shall be welded construction.
3.2.2.9.2 Tank grounding provision shall consist of two steel pads, each with '% inch - 13 NC tapped hole, 7/16
inch deep.
3.2.2.9.3 These ground pads shall be welded on the transformer base or on the tank wall near the base, one in
the high -voltage side and one in the low -voltage side. In cases where the transformer tank and
compartments are separate, provisions shall be made for electrically connecting them.
3.2.2.9.4 Locking bolts shall be pentahead.
3.2.2.10 COMPONENTS FOR LOOPED PRIMARY
The minimum current -carrying capability of components for the looped primary cable system shall be 200
amperes (continuous) and 10,000 amperes symmetrical (momentary).
3.2.2.11 AUDIBLE SOUND LEVEL
The audible sound level shall be in accordance with NEMA Standard TR1-1980.
3.2.2.12 BASE PLAN
The base plan of a completely assembled unit shall be such that it can be installed on a pad of the
dimensions shown in Fig. 1 B.
3.2.2.13 PAINT
EEI "Finishing Guidelines" specification shall apply. Finish coat shall be Munsell Green, glossy.
3.2.2,14 LOSSES
The total losses of transformer shall be the sum of the excitation losses and the load losses (12R 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 Instruction to Bidders." Transformers will be evaluated on
excitation losses and I2R losses at the specified rates. If tested losses exceed quote losses but are within
the tolerances of Table 18, ANSI C57.12.00-1987, 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 Table 18 and 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 Table 18, ANSI C57.12.00-1987, 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.
3.2.2.15 SAFETY LABELS
NEMA 1260 Safety Labels shall not be applied by the manufacturer: Purchaser will apply customer warning
labels after delivery.

4 QUALITY ASSURANCE
4.1 GENERAL
4.1.1 RESPONSIBILITY FOR INSPECTION
Unless otherwise specified, the vendor is responsible for the performance of all inspection requirements
as specified herein. Except as otherwise specified, the vendor may utilize his own facilities or any
commercial laboratory acceptable to the City of Fort Collins. The City reserves the right to perform or
witness any of the inspections set forth in this Specification where such inspections are deemed
necessary.
4.1.2 TEST REPORT
The manufacturer shall furnish to the purchaser certified copies of the results of loss tests prior to
payment. Copies shall be sent to the Design Section as well as with the invoice. Unsigned copies are
not acceptable even if accompanied by a signed cover letter. The Quality Control Manager shall review
and sign each test report.
4.2 TEST CONDITIONS
Unless otherwise specified, testing required by Section 4.4 shall be conducted under the following
conditions:
4.2.1 REFERENCE TEMPERATURE
The reference temperature to which losses, impedance, regulation, and efficiency are corrected shall be
85°C.
4.2.2 TOLERANCE ON IMPEDANCE VOLTAGE
Impedance on completed units shall fall within the range specified herein.
4.2.3 TOLERANCE ON IMPEDANCE VOLTAGE ON A TAP
The percent departure of tested impedance voltage on any tap from tested impedance voltage at rated
voltage shall not be greater than the total tap voltage range expressed as a percentage of the rated
voltage.
4.3 Not used.
4.4 TESTS
The kinds of tests to be performed and the test procedures shall be as specified in ANSI C57.12.20, ANSI
C57.12.00, and C57.12.90 except as specified herein.
4.4.1 DIELECTRIC TESTS
No applied potential test shall be made. The induced -potential test shall be made by applying between
the terminals of one winding a voltage which will develop from high -voltage line terminals to ground a
voltage of 1000 volts plus 3.46 times the rated transformer winding voltage.
4.4.2 IMPEDANCE AND LOAD -LOSS TESTS
Impedance and load -loss tests shall be made on each unit and may not be omitted even if a record of
such tests made on a duplicate unit is available.
6 PREPARATION FOR DELIVERY
Transformers shall be prefilled with the appropriate amount of transformer oil and shall be shipped by open -bed truck.
Units shall be packaged in such a way as to provide for ease of handling and to protect units from shipping damage.
