CI-499 Electrical mods for motor control/ switch gear

The Department of the Navy, through Navfac Mid-Atlantic, is forecasting a project for electrical modifications to the motor control and switchgear serving the 400 series tanks at Facility CI498 in Norfolk. The current equipment is antiquated, has exceeded its useful life expectancy, and represents a single point of failure for critical JP5 and F76 operations. Due to the age of the system, necessary repairs currently require custom-made bus bars and switches, resulting in unsustainable lead times. This effort, categorized under NAICS code 238210, aims to modernize the electrical infrastructure to ensure operational reliability and reduce maintenance delays. The project focuses on replacing outdated components to eliminate the risks associated with the existing single point of failure and to streamline future upkeep of the fuel system controls.
