Urban-type packaged transformer substations (urban-type packaged substation)
Urban-type packaged substation — reliable electricity supply to consumers in cities!
A stable power supply is an integral part of the normal operation of devices in residential buildings and non-residential premises in the city. In addition, electricity supply is required at certain agricultural and industrial facilities. In each of these cases, a reliable and functional packaged transformer substation for urban networks (urban-type packaged substation) is needed to meet the power demand.
Purpose and general functionality
The urban-type packaged substation is designed for efficient management of electricity flows in areas where energy consumption reaches a high level. It receives high voltage and transforms it for further distribution to consumers.
Urban-type packaged substation: design and components
Each urban-type packaged substation is delivered to the customer fully equipped. It contains everything needed for installation and commissioning of the substation. In particular:
- Substation enclosure. Made of metal with an anti-corrosion coating.
- Power transformers. These devices convert voltage from high to low and vice versa.
- High-voltage switchgear. It consists of incoming cubicles (which perform the function of input and protection, ensuring safe connection and disconnection of the high-voltage line) and switching devices. The latter category includes disconnectors, switches and fuses. They are used to control the system and protect the high-voltage part of the substation.
- Low-voltage switchgear. This part consists of low-voltage boards, as well as circuit breakers and fuses. The first category of devices comprises panels intended for control and protection of low-voltage lines. The second group includes devices that protect against short circuits and overload.
The package additionally includes operating manuals, documentation and spare parts.

Safety
The urban-type packaged substation is designed by true professionals. They have extensive experience in creating such structures, so they take any risks into account. In addition, testing is carried out before the equipment is delivered to the customer.
Strength
The enclosure is made of high-quality steel resistant to adverse external factors. It is not subject to corrosion or low-force mechanical impact.
Reliability
During manufacturing, laboratory tests are carried out at every stage, and upon completion the product passes the quality control department (QCD). This guarantees that the product is of high quality, reliable and functional.
Manufacturing lead time
Developing a functional and safe urban-type packaged substation for a specific facility requires a detailed study of the request. Specialists take into account the features of the site, the consumer and the required volumes of electricity. To build equipment that accounts for all these characteristics, specialists need 45 days.
Warranty period
The company is confident in the high quality of its structures, so it provides customers with a long warranty. For the urban-type packaged substation, the warranty period is 24 months. During this time, the customer can contact the company if a defect is found. The service life of our products is 25 years.
Delivery options
In addition to reliable equipment, we offer our customers quality service. In particular, we arrange delivery by various means. We ship the urban-type packaged substation to the specified location by our own transport and via logistics companies as part-load freight. In addition, self-pickup directly from production is available.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
An urban-type packaged substation is an Urban-type Compact substation. Its main distinction is its very compact size. It takes up 1.5–2 times less area than a standard industrial "kiosk". This is an ideal solution for installation in the yards of residential buildings, in shopping-mall car parks, in parks and squares, where every square metre of land is worth its weight in gold.
They are used to power infrastructure facilities (street lighting, traffic lights), small office buildings, shops, cafés and residential complexes. Thanks to their neat appearance, they do not spoil the urban landscape.
In 99% of cases it is a "Cable-Cable" scheme (input and output underground). In urban conditions, overhead lines (wires on poles) are rarely used, so the substation has no bulky towers on the roof, which makes it even less noticeable.
