Construction and commissioning ofsub station

Construction and commissioning of sub station isa subject describing the actual execution details.

• These sub station land is initially selected and the final level to be kept for construction of substation is decided on the basis of contour survey of the sub station land. So that the land development is carried out economically.

• The land development is then carried out accordingly• The sub station equipments and gantry foundations are

then cast. • The control room is also constructed as per drawing.

SITE WORK FOR EQUIPMENT FOUNDATION

Results:-

• SCF + WL :-Force = 2178 + 1752.22 = 3930.22 NMoment @ Base = 11979 + 5363 = 17342 N

The combined loading of wind and short-circuit forces produce the greatest forces and moment at the base design for this condition. Therefore seismic forces are not critical for this structure.
