RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution awarding the bid for the purchase of
one Battery Capacity Test System to the sole bidder, Power Services Group,
Santa Rosa CA in the amount of $8,345.24 and appropriate funds for this
purchase.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On June 19, 2002, the City Council approved specifications and authorized
advertisement for bids for the purchase of a new battery test system.
Lodi Electric Utility does not currently have a reliable method of testing our Substation and SCADA batteries. The
electric system is controlled by DC power and knowing the condition of our battery systems is critical for the efficient
operation of the electric system. This system will enable the department to track the condition of the batteries and be
better able to predict when there are possible battery failures.
