Hope you guys dont mind,me sharing a few pics from the Distribution side of things with you.....
At the moment SPEN is undertaking a huge Switchgear Replacement program to get rid of ageing oil filled Switchgear that has operational restrictions on it....
Heres one where we replaced one of the oldest LV distribution boards we have on the system....
the old Ring Main Unit thats being replaced....
Old Paper Insulated Lead Covered (PILC) HV cables prepped and ready to joint the new ones onto....
Seeing as the SUB was down a long path in a customers garden we used the back saving crawler crane...this is the new LUCY SF6 Gas Ring Main on its way to the sub
The old Transformer on its way out and back to the Plant Workshop for a refurb
and the new switchgear in place and made live, note the HV protection panel is still in place, its well over fifty years old, but after a maintainence and test its well up to the job....
Apologies if its nothing new to you guys.....
