The Substation consist of following major equipment:

• 380kV Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS)
• 110kV GIS
• 13.8kV Switchgear
• 302/402/502MVA, 380/110/13.8kV power transformers
• 2.5MVA, 13.8kV/400V-230V Station Service Transformers
• 13.8kV Grounding Transformers
• 380kV, 120MVAR Reactors
• 13.8kV Ring Main Unit
• HV/MV Power Cables and Terminations,
• AC/DC Auxiliary Power Supply,
• Surge Arresters
• Control/Protection System,
• Substation Automation System (SAS)
• Communication System
• Fire Detection/Alarm and Safety and Fire Protection System
• Civil/Structural works and Mechanical works
• Security System of Class-1
• Environmental and Social Impact Assessment Study

Portion 2:

Portion 2 of the Project involve Design and construction of Four (4) 380kV Cables Double circuits between the proposed FAIS PV 380kV BSP and transition area, Construction of Transition Area (near FAIS PV BSP), Tapping / Loop in and Out of 380KV OHTL (Shoaibah IWPP to Waha / SMR) to the proposed Transition Yard / Terminal Compound.

Project Summary:

The Contractor shall perform on Lump sum turnkey basis, the design, engineering, materials procurement, quality management, factory inspection/testing, transport and delivery to site, installation, construction, site inspection, testing and commissioning, all associated work and services until final handing over of new substation work in a satisfactorily working and operating condition.

Contractor needs to achieve the final acceptance of the works by 29 months from Contract Signing Date.
