High Voltage Electrical Distribution

Substations are increasingly becoming more complex in design with lots of interconnections to the system grid and distributed generation from renewable energy sources. This calls for resilient, sustainability safety and reliability, which has advanced stringent federal and state regulatory requirements.

At PRVN we provide services for substation from 5kV to 161kV from initiation, scoping, estimating, design and construction support.

  • Substation conceptual layout.

  • Site selection and land acquisition

  • Substation physical& bus work, foundation, and grounding design

  • Develop one-lines, three lines and complete protective relaying and control design.

  • Control house and switchgear design.

  • Equipment specification and bidding assistance

  • General bid evaluation

  • Preparation of drawings, specifications, bid and construction documents.

  • Project management

  • Construction management

  • “As-built” documentation
