The customer contract demand of the grid connection of the project will be 149 kW. Power supply will be provided from the 110/35/10 kV “Rzhev” substation. The project provides for the design and construction of a new 10/0.4 kV package transformer substation with a 160 kVA transformer. The power engineers will also construct a new 10 kV cable-overhead line to the projected 10/0.4 kV package transformer substation with a total length of 0.2 km and install a 0.4 kV cable line with a length of about 0.015 km. All work is scheduled for completion this autumn.
