TRANSFORMER & LTC REPAIR

The City of Glendale is soliciting quotations for the repair of one transformer and its load tap changers (LTC) at the Rossmoyne Substation. The scope of work includes replacing stationary and moving contact sets, door gaskets, pressure relief devices, and PV bleeders, as well as repairing tank leaks, repainting the transformer, and performing a vacuum oil fill. The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, tools, and materials, including the inspection and replacement of motors, capacitors, and associated breakers. Following repairs, the contractor must perform comprehensive testing on the transformers and bushings to establish baseline data and verify that the equipment is safe for service. A minimum one-year warranty on all labor and materials is required. To be eligible, bidders must possess a valid California contractor's license and have at least 10 years of experience with power transformer repairs in an electrical utility environment. Compliance with California Senate Bill 854 requires registration with the Department of Industrial Relations, and contractors must adhere to prevailing wage laws. Payment and performance bonds equal to 100 percent of the contract value are required for bids exceeding 25,000 dollars. All quotes must be submitted via the PlanetBids portal or by sealed envelope by 11:00 AM on November 5, 2026. Final project acceptance and payment are contingent upon a successful final inspection by the Project Manager.
