Power Distribution Illumination Systems Electrical (PDISE) expansion

Abstract

Prepare PDISE- Prime effort by awarding the Prime Power Distribution System (PPDS) contract, developing Prime Power Connection Kit (PPCK) first article test (FAT) units and start developmental testing inclusive of the Improved Primary Switching Center (iPSC), Improved Secondary Distribution Center (iSDC), and Tactical Prime Power Transformer (TPPT). The PPCK enables distribution of power from prime power sources which use medium voltages or higher. The system will transform medium or higher voltages down to standard 120/208 V, 3-phase power. Elements of the PPCK will enhance the existing Secondary Distribution Center (SDC) by incorporating advanced capabilities to accept either 4160 Volts Alternating Current (VAC) primary input power from a USA Deployable Power Generation and Distribution System (DPGDS) or a United States Air Force (USAF) Basic Expeditionary Airfield Resources (BEAR) power source or 13,800 VAC from contracted and commercial power sources or host nation/existing distribution systems.
