Comms Installation of Power Whips for Server Rack Power Feeds

Statement of Work (SOW) Installation of 240V/208V 30A and 125V 15A Server Rack Power Feeds Grissom Air Force Base, Indiana July 20, 2026 BACKGROUND: The 434th Communications Squadron (434 CS) is undergoing a scheduled technology refresh of communications equipment in building 427. To support the deployment of the new core nodes and server switches, the facility requires the installation of dedicated 30-Amp power feeds. A total of four (4) runs are required to support the server rack from an existing uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system. Because the server racks are separated from the walls to allow walk-around access (front and rear clearance), the contractor must install facility-mounted electrical receptacles directly on the real property structure (e.g., mounted securely to the top or bottom of the server rack rails or under the raised floor tiles immediately adjacent to the racks). The 434 CS will separately acquire and connect the power receptacles/PDUs from the IT equipment to these newly installed receptacles. A second project is scheduled to take place to accomplish tech refresh of communications equipment in Building 427 DCO and Building 671 communications room. These facilities require the installation of dedicated 15-Amp power feeds. A total of two (2) runs are required to support the server racks. To accommodate for standalone rackmount UPS. SECURITY: Contractor personnel will require background checks, vehicle passes, and base identification badges to work on Grissom ARB. Background checks can take several weeks and must be initiated immediately upon award. Building 427 Datacenter is a secure controlled area. Contractor personnel must be escorted at all times while performing work in this facility. Escorts will be coordinated by the 434 CS Project POCs. Any penetration of fire-rated walls, ceilings, or floors must be properly sealed with approved fire-stopping materials. Any work impacting facility airflow or fire barriers must be coordinated with the Base Fire Inspector. OBJECTIVES: The contractor shall be responsible for all labor, materials, and equipment required to complete the work described herein, regardless of the site conditions discovered. This project is a firm, fixed price (FFP) turnkey installation. The contractor is solely responsible for the verification of all field conditions, including but not limited to, breaker panel -- 1 of 5 -- space and compatibility, routing, pathways for conduits, structural mounting points, and adherence to all referenced codes. The Government will not be liable for any claims resulting from the contractor’s failure to perform due diligence. Refer to the below scope of work & specifications. Project 1: Specification Area Required Details Power Requirement 240V/208V, Single-Phase, 30-Amp. (Total estimated load: 37.5 Amps, 7,810 Watts, 9,000 VA). Quantity Four (4) independent circuit runs. Receptacle Type NEMA L6-30R (Locking Receptacles) rated for 250V/30A, each mounted in a secure, code-compliant metal junction box. Junction boxes must be mounted on the top or bottom of the server rack or secure structural channels. Wiring & Distance Approximately 25-foot run from the source electrical/UPS panel to the server racks. Must use appropriately sized copper wire (minimum 10 AWG or as required by code/distance to prevent voltage drop). Source Panel / UPS existing Eaton Model 9393 Datacenter UPS (50 kVA, Serial Number: EL201CBC03) panel A, B, or C. Breakers Install four (4) new double-pole 30A breakers in the existing Eaton UPS panel A, B, or C. Contractor is responsible for verifying breaker brand, location, and type compatibility during the pre-bid site visit. Routing & Conduit All wiring must be routed professionally and safely using code-compliant conduit (e.g., EMT or Liquid-tight flexible metallic conduit where applicable) utilizing existing overhead cable ladders, under-floor spaces, or drop ceilings as determined during the site visit. Testing & Grounding Contractor must test all four (4) receptacles for proper phase-to-phase and phase-to- ground voltage, polarity, and grounding. A copy of the test results must be provided to the Government Project Manager. Project 2: Specification Area Required Details -- 2 of 5 -- Power Requirement 125V, Single-Phase, 15-Amp. Quantity Two (2) independent circuit runs. Receptacle Type NEMA L5-15R (Locking Receptacles) rated for 125V/15A, each mounted in a secure, code-compliant metal junction box. Junction boxes must be mounted on the top or bottom of the server rack or secure structural channels. Wiring & Distance Approximately 25-foot run from the source electrical/UPS panel to the server racks. Must use appropriately sized copper wire (minimum 10 AWG or as required by code/distance to prevent voltage drop). Source Panel / UPS Building 427 – existing power panel H, located in room 1518-1. Building 671 - existing XTREME Model M90 UPS (15 kVA, Serial Number: M910241100002) located in room 1701A, feeds panel U located in room 1505-2. Breakers Install 1 (1) new single-pole 15A breaker in the existing panel H in building 427 mechanical room 1518-1. Install one (1) new single-pole 15A breaker in the existing panel U in building 671 room 1505-2. Contractor is responsible for verifying breaker brand and type compatibility during the pre-bid site visit. Routing & Conduit All wiring must be routed professionally and safely using code-compliant conduit (e.g., EMT or Liquid-tight flexible metallic conduit where applicable) utilizing existing overhead cable ladders, under-floor spaces, or drop ceilings as determined during the site visit. Testing & Grounding Contractor must test all two (2) receptacles for proper phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground voltage, polarity, and grounding. A copy of the test results must be provided to the Government Project Manager.
