Equipment, material or workmanship meeting other internationally recognized standards that ensure an equivalent or higher quality than the standard specified will be accepted. Operating conditions: Mormal operating temperature: 80C Maximum temperature (short circuit): 160C Maximum operating load: 70 N/mm Average span: 90 m Every day temperature 25C Temperature with max wind 10C Temperature with ice -40C Packing and delivery Bare conductors shall be delivered on non-returnable drums. Drums shall contain a quantity of 1000 meach. Conductors shall be placed on reels having a drum diameter sufficiently large so that the bending radius will not unduly modify the physical properties of the conductors. In order to protect the aerial cables against adverse effects of water and moisture, both ends shall be coated with hot melted paste and provided with shrunk on end-caps. Conductors and aerial cables shall be protected during ordinary handling and transportation to prevent damage. Proof of quality The Supplier shall state all technical particulars and basic design characteristics of the conductors as requested in the data sheets, and shall additionally submit the following: Page 1 of 3 AEPC Afghan Electrical Power Corporation - - Page 2 of 3 Street 15, lane3, House 260 15 3 260 Wazir Akbar Khan Kabul Afghanistan - Mobile: +93(0)700 285 246 Or 0700 285 306 : 0700285246 0285306 0 7 ) 0 ( 93 + ) 0 ( 93 + 799 323 890 Or 0799 323 060 93 + ) 0 ( 323890 9 079 9323060 9 7 haidar.g.barak@aepc.af haidar.g.barak@aepc.af www.aepc.af www.aepc.af Type test certificates issued by an internationally acknowledged testing laboratory Manufacturing methods and technology Drawing of drum giving its main dimensions and weight Description of quality assurance program Conductor Reference lists stating deliveries and installation in the past 5 (five) years, including quantity sold and addresses of customers. Inspection and testing Tests shall be carried out to the relevant standards and recommendations, supplemented by the specific requirements set out in the specification. In the absence of IEC standards, inspections and tests shall be carried out in such a manner as to be at least equivalent to the conditions, provisions and definitions set out in one of the standards listed in this specification. The Supplier shall provide with his offer a program of factory acceptance tests, which he intends to carry out. Type test Type tests shall be carried out if the Supplier is not in a position to produce type test certificates that are duly approved by an independent authority of international repute and that cover the exact design (type) of equipment to be supplied by the Tenderer and manufactured in complete accordance with this Specification. Routine tests These tests will be carried out on the whole batch of conductors and cables and will include: Visual inspection (conductor examination) Conductor resistance measurement carried out in DC and corrected to 20C Continuous measurement of insulation thickness (for aerial cable only) Checking of outside diameter and eccentricity of finished conductors Checking of mechanical characteristics of the insulating material (for aerial cable only) Inspection for conformity with specification.
