This contract involves the procurement of wildlife protection covers designed for electrical equipment such as switches, reclosers, transformers, and insulators. The covers are intended to safeguard vulnerable bushings and insulators from wildlife interference and environmental damage. The products must feature a hinged design that permits installation while the equipment remains energized, enhancing safety and minimizing downtime. Materials specified must be track-resistant with built-in ultraviolet inhibitors, ensuring a durable service life of up to 20 years, and all covers are gray in color. The contract specifies three main protective cover types categorized by their size and application: extra-large bushings, large bushings, and 25 kV phase-to-ground arc-resistant insulator covers. The extra-large bushings cover measures approximately 18 inches in height and is designed for bushing sheds between 4 and 8 inches and core diameters 3.5 to 6.25 inches, with an approved manufacturer part number provided. The large bushings cover stands around 12 inches tall, fitting smaller bushing dimensions, and also includes approved manufacturers or equivalent products. Finally, the insulator cover is designed for pin and post type insulators up to 8 inches in diameter, offering arc-resistant protection. Shipment quantities for each cover type are specified, and the solicitation is issued by Nashville Electric Service with a response deadline in early March 2026. The procurement contact is available in Nashville, Tennessee, and potential vendors can access the solicitation through the specified online portal.
