DSUEP project area. These specifications are limited to a localized SCADA-ready system in
each 33/11 kV substation under DSUEP. Communication backbone can be laid by NEA at a
later stage to facilitate remote operation. Other 33/11 kV substations operated by NEA in
province Lumbini, Karnali and Sudurpashchim may also be made SCADA compatible and
connected with this system. Communication backbone and SCADA systems in non-DSUEP
substations is beyond the scope of this specification.

operation of all switching devices via the bay control IED.
EMERGENCY Operation:
It shall be possible to close or open the selected Circuit Breaker with ON or OFF push buttons

11.1.12 Maintenance
a. Maintenance Responsibility during the Guaranteed Availability Period.
During Guaranteed Availability Period, the Contractor shall take continual actions to ensure the
guaranteed availability and shall make available all the necessary resources such as specialist
personnel, spare parts, tools, test devices etc. for replacement or repair of all defective parts
and shall have prime responsibility for keeping the system operational. During guarantee
period as specified in tender document, contractor shall arrange bi-monthly visit of their

etc. is observed during the period, the same shall be set right by the contractor within 15 days.
The SAS shall be designed so that the failure of any single component, processor, or device
shall not render the system unavailable. The SAS shall be designed to satisfy the very high
demands for reliability and availability concerning:
a. Outage terms
i Outage
The state in which substation automation system or a unit of SAS is unavailable for
Normal Operation due to an event directly related to the SAS or unit of SAS. In the event, the
owner has taken any equipment/ system other than Sub-station Automation System for
schedule/forced maintenance, the consequent outage to SAS shall not be considered as
outage for the purpose of availability.
The time elapsed in hours between the start and the end of an outage. The time shall
be counted to the nearest 1/4th of an hour. Time less than 1/4th of an hour shall be counted as
having duration of 1/4th of an hour.
The number of hours in the reporting period. In a full year the period hour are 8760h
(8784h for a leap year).
$2+ AOD
v Availability:
Each SAS shall have a total availability of 99.98 % i.e. the ratio of total time duration minus the
actual outage duration to total time duration.
b. Guarantees Required
The availability for the complete SAS shall be guaranteed by the Contractor. Bidder
shall include in their offer the detailed calculation for the availability. The contractor shall
demonstrate their availability guaranteed by conducting the availability test on the total sub-
station automation system as a whole after commissioning of total Sub-station Automation
system. The test shall verify the reliability and integrity of all sub-systems. Under these
conditions the test shall establish an overall availability of 99.98%. After the lapse of 1000
Hours of cumulative test time, test records shall be examined to determine the conformance
with availability criterion. In case of any outage during the availability test, the contractor shall
rectify the problem and after rectification, the 1000 Hours period start after such rectification. If
test object has not been met the test shall continue until the specified availability is achieved.
The contractor has to establish the availability in a maximum period of three months from the
date of commencement of the availability test.
After the satisfactory conclusion of test both contractor and employer shall mutually agree to
the test results and if these results satisfy the availability criterion, the test is considered to be
completed successfully. After that the system shall be taken over by the employer and then the
guarantee period shall start.
11.1.14 Spares
a. Consumables:

the spares, which may be required for ensuring the guaranteed availability during the
guaranteed availability period. The final list of spares shall form part of scope of supply and
accordingly the price thereof shall be quoted by the bidder and shall be considered in the
evaluation of the bids. During the guaranteed availability period, the spare parts supplied by
the Contractor shall be made available to the Contractor for usage subject to replenishment at
the earliest. Thus, at the end of availability period the inventory of spares with the Employer
shall be fully replenished by the Contractor. However, any additional spares required to meet
the availability of the system (which are not a part of the above spares supplied by the
Contractor) would have to be supplied immediately by the Contractor free of cost to the
Employer.
