SCOPE OF SERVICES P2S INC. CITY OF SANTA ANA PUBLIC WORKS ARC FLASH ANALYSIS & ELECTRICAL SAFETY PROGRAM SCOPE OF SERVICES We understand that the scope of the project includes performing arc flash hazard analysis, short circuit interrupting rating analysis, analyzing overcurrent protection coordination, calculating incident energy at each site and determining the arc flash boundary and calorie rating. We understand that the purpose of this analysis is to identify safe work zones and high -risk arc flash areas within the electrical system and recommend mitigation strategies for discovered and known hazards. The study will also provide Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) recommendations in compliance with NFPA 70E. The study will be performed in accordance with IEEE 1584-2018. We understand that we will be responsible to collect all the data from approximately 12 sites and confirm the information provided in the drawings and gather any additional information. P2S will not rely solely on the drawings and documentation provided to us and will verify each and every aspect for the study. We understand that the field investigations may need to be performed on live equipment and if the equipment needs to be de -energized, P2S will work with the schedule to identify shut down possibilities on a case by case basis. P2S will also work with the assigned City of Santa Ana Public Works executive account representative to obtain all the utility contribution data for each site as required to complete the study. We will provide the arc flash labels for all the electrical equipment to be installed by the electricians, however, P2S will be available to support this effort, if deemed necessary at the completion of the project. P2S has extensive experience in performing short circuit, coordination and arc flash study for water and wastewater. We understand the need for safety in electrical systems and will provide complete engineering solutions based on our analysis. P2S has also conducted arc flash and shock hazard electrical safety training sessions for various electrical and maintenance personnel for various projects and can provide this service to City of Santa Ana Public Works. P2S has provided custom NFPA 70E compliant safety programs to water districts and will review and provide an updated custom safety program to the City of Santa Ana Public Works. Our deliverables for this project will include: 1. Field investigation reports for all surveyed sites. 2. Complete single line diagrams for all the proposed sites showing all relevant information (in CAD and PDF). 3. Electronic version of the Arc Flash Model prepared by P2S as a raw file. 4. Complete report for all facilities in PDF format including all the information described in Attachment 1 of the RFP. 5. Printed Arc Flash Labels to be installed on equipment in study scope. 20
