Substation Design
IntegralPower has provided High Voltage Substation packages for mission critical installations across Australia. With an experienced in-house design team, we have delivered well over 100 HV substation projects (AIS and GIS) up to 220kV.
Our staff come from various backgrounds including, Power Systems, Electrical Control Systems, and Civil Engineering covering all disciplines involved in substation design – Primary, Secondary, SCADA, Communications, Protection, Civil, Structural, Testing and Commissioning.
Integral Power’s testing and commissioning team performs equipment and functional testing for substation assets, including both primary and secondary systems testing, deploying a comprehensive fleet of in-house test equipment. This ensures first class safety and quality while meeting project schedules and avoiding costly delays.
