Also, please note that Taxes and duties shall be paid extra against production of documentary evidence. However, in case where bidder specifies present rate of statutory levy at a lower rate than the maximum of normal tax-structure, any upward variations in statutory levies upto maximum of applicable rates shall have to be born by the bidder. Importantly, in case a bidder stipulates upward revision of statutory levy (ED,ST etc.) to the CSPDCL account and specifies present rate of statutory levy at a lower rate than the maximum of normal tax-structure of levy applicable for the product or as evident from other bids received in the tender; his quoted prices will attract a loading considering maximum slab of normal rate of levy applicable .For example, a bidder stipulates upward revision of CST to the CSPDCL account and specifies present rate of CST @ 1%.Whereas,the maximum limit of normal rate of CST is 2% for tendered item. Therefore, loading for balance i.e. 2-1 = 1% CST will be done on the price quoted by that bidder. Also any upward variations in statutory levies beyond original contractual period will have to be born by the bidders. The rates quoted in the price bid will be loaded with the prevailing rate of entry tax for State / Out-side State Units to ascertain the lowest rate i.e. the lowest landed cost and the firm will be considered the L-1 bidder based on such lowest landed cost, for all purposes. However, while placing the order to L-1 bidder, the rate offered should be after de loading the entry tax, as the amount of entry tax is to be paid by CSPDCL. For placing order whereas on firms other than L-1, i.e. for counter offer the rate offered will be such that the total landed cost including entry tax @ 1% shall be same for within and outside State Units. The notary attested copies of all the desired type test certificates from the Govt / Govt.approved/ NABL accredited laboratory alongwith the drawing/design of sample tested, for 11 KV PIN INSULATOR (PORCELAIN & POLYMER) 33 KV PIN INSULATOR (PORCELAIN), 11 KV 45 KN DISC INSULATOR (POLYMER) & 33 KV POLYMER (COMPOSITE) DISC INSULATOR (as prescribed in with its latest amendment as per relevant IS / IEC) shall be submitted along with the tender, failing which the tender will be liable for rejection .The type test certificates shall not be 5 years old from the date of opening of the tender. If the Type test report found more than 5 years old, the offer would be liable for rejection. Type test reports of other laboratories shall also be liable for rejection. Only commercial and technical bids shall be opened on date of opening of tender. The price bid shall be opened on any subsequent date for which intimation shall be given separately.

12. STANDARDISATION OF DIMENSIONS OF TOP AND NECK OF 11 KV PIN INSULATOR:Please note that now-a-days Company is using preformed ties for binding conductor with the Pin Insulator instead of conventional method of binding by Aluminium binding wire and tape.The design of the preformed ties depends upon the dimensions of top and neck of 11 KV Pin Insulator. For proper gripping of the conductor with the help of preformed fittings it has become necessary to standardise the dimensions of the insulator top and neck. Accordingly, a drawing 051-32/CSEB/1 dt.1.9.2001, which indicates the standardised dimensions of top and neck of 11 KV Pin Insulator, is enclosed with Tender Specification. This drawing has been approved by REC, New Delhi, therefore, the tenderers are advised to offer material based on this drawing. SUPERINTENDING ENGINEER (P)-IV O/o E.D. (S&P), CSPDCL: RAIPUR

09. PACKING:9.1. AlI Insulators shall be packed in strong corrugated box of min, 7 ply duly paletted or wooden crates. The gross weight of the crates along with the material shall not normally exceed 100 Kg to avoid handling problem. The crates shall be suitable for outdoor storage under wet climate during rainy season. The packing shall be of sufficient strength to withstand rough handling during transit, storage at site and subsequent handling in the field. Suitable cushioning, protective padding, or dunnage or spacers shall be provided to prevent damage or deformation during transit and handling. All packing cases shall be marked legibly and correctly so as to ensure safe arrival at their destination and to avoid the possibility of goods being lost or wrongly dispatched on account of faulty packing and faulty or illegible markings. Each wooden case / crate / corrugated box shall have all the markings stenciled on it in indelible ink. The bidder shall provide instructions regarding handling and storage precautions to be taken at site.

Annexure-A Tests on Insulator Units 1. RIV Test (Dry):The insulator string along with complete hardware fittings shall have a radio interference voltage level below 100 micro volts at one MHz when subjected to 50 Hz AC voltage of 10 kV& 30 kV for 11 kV& 33 kV class insulators respectively under dry condition. The test procedure shall be in accordance with IS:326B /I EC : 437/CISPfi 18-2. 2. Brittle Fracture Resistance Test:Brittle fracture test shall be carried out on naked rod along with end fittings by applying "1 n HNO3 acid" (63 g cone, HN03 added to 937 g water) to the rod. The rod should be held at 80% of SML for the duration of the test. The rod should not fail within the 96 hour test duration. Test arrangement should ensure continuous wetting of the rod with Nitric acid. 3. Recovery of Hydrophobicity & Corona test:i) The test shall be carried out on 4mm thick samples of 5cm x 7cm The surface of selected samples shall be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol. Allow the surface to dry and spray with water Record the Hydrophobicity classification in line with STRI guide for Hydrophobicity classification.. Dry the sample surface. The sample shah subjected to mechanical stress by bending the sample over a ground electrode. Corona is continuously generated by applying 12 kV to a needle like electrode placed 1mm above the sample surface. The test shall be done for 100 hrs. Immediately after the corona treatment, spray the surface with water and record the HC classification. Dry the surface and repeat the corona treatment as at clause 7 above. Note HC classification. Repeat the cycle for 1000 hrs. or until an HC of 6 or 7 is obtained. Dry the sample surface. Allow the sample to recover and repeat hydrophobiticiy measurement at several lime intervals. Silicone rubber should recover to HC 1 - HC 2 within 24 to 48 hours, depending on the material and the intensity of the corona treatment.
