Mast Arms

Nashville Electric Service is soliciting bids for mast arms designed for wood pole mounting, featuring 2 inch aluminum Schedule 40 pipe with a 12 foot length and double top guy brace. The technical specifications require a rise of 3 feet 8 inches from the mounting base and a required pole spacing of 18 inches. All units must adhere to EEI-NEMA standards and be capable of supporting 60 lb luminaires with a minimum projected area of 2.7 square feet. Only specific approved models from SALCO, CURLEE, and HAPCO are acceptable, as alternate brands will not be considered. All applicable back braces must be pre-assembled with fittings and nuts, including a 3/8 inch ground hole, and packaged as a single unit with the mast arms. Delivery is a key evaluation factor, and bidders must specify their earliest delivery timeline in calendar days. Logistics requirements are strict, mandating that items be delivered on an open, flat bed truck and shipped in open top trucks with convenient banding to facilitate unloading via an overhead crane. Bids must be submitted through the Bid Center by 2:00 pm local time on the published close date. For any discrepancies between part numbers and descriptions, vendors are responsible for contacting the procurement contact, Shanna Faulk, for clarification prior to the deadline.
