ARRANGEMENT AND ASSEMBLY
The location and general arrangement of the low-voltage metal-enclosed
switchgear assembly, [metal-enclosed bus structures] [and station service
transformers] are shown. Modifications of the equipment arrangement or the
equipment device requirements shown shall be subject to approval. The
switchgear assembly shall be completely assembled and wired at the factory.
The metal-enclosed bus structures shall be assembled at the factory in
sections of sufficient length for convenience of tests, shipment, and
installation. After complete assembly, the switchgear group shall be
disassembled into sections, for convenience of handling, shipment, and
installation. Each shipping section of the switchgear shall be properly
matchmarked to facilitate reassembly, and shall be provided with removable
lifting channels with eye bolts for attachment of crane slings to
facilitate lifting and handling. The equipment shall be shipped as
completely assembled and wired as feasible so as to require a minimum of
installation work. Switchgear groups and metal-enclosed buses which are
disassembled into sections for shipment shall have the associated parts
properly matchmarked to facilitate installation by the Government. Any
relay (, indicating instrument) or other device which cannot withstand the
hazards of shipment when mounted in place on the switchgear shall be
carefully packed and shipped separately. These pieces shall be marked with
the number of the panel on which they are to be mounted and fully
identified so they can be readily mounted and connected. All finished
painted surfaces and metal work shall be wrapped suitably or otherwise
protected from damage during shipment. All parts shall be prepared for
shipment so that slings for handling may be attached readily while the
parts are in a railway car or transport truck. Switchgear sections crated
for shipment shall be of such size, including crates, that they will pass
through a [_____]-meter by [_____]-meter [_____]-foot by [_____]-foot hatch
opening, and a [_____]-meter by [_____]-meter [_____]-foot by [_____]-foot
wall opening.
