Pro 33/11 KV Transformer & Control Room for Sub Stn
Project Description
The project involves the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of a 33/11 kV transformer and the construction of a control room for the substation. This facility will serve as a critical part of the electrical distribution system, stepping down the voltage from 33 kV to 11 kV to ensure efficient power transmission to local areas. The project also includes the provision of the necessary electrical equipment, control panels, protection systems, and auxiliary services required for the safe and reliable operation of the substation.
