Hotline of power engineering specialists:
According to the up-to-date information of the Headquarters of exercises for working out interaction and eliminating interruptions in the electric grid complex in the Tver region, by 21 October, the power engineers reconstructed 90.1 km of overhead lines. 3,310 power line poles were replaced, and self-supporting insulated wire was installed.
The work on replacing bare wire with self-supporting insulated is one of the most important components of the power engineering exercises of PJSC Rosseti, which are currently underway in the region with the support of the Government of the Tver region. As part of the exercises, it is planned to reconstruct 540 km of 6-10kV overhead lines. Works are being carried out in Kalininsky, Andreapolsky, Zapadnodvinsky, Zubtsovsky, Maksatikhinsky, Ostashkovsky, Penovsky, Toropetsky districts of the Tver region.
Acting Deputy General Director of IDGC of Centre - Tverenergo director Manvel Mazhonts monitored the progress of work on the replacement of bare wire in Kalininsky district of the Tver region. “Work on the reconstruction of overhead lines will not only increase the reliability of electricity supply to consumers, but in some cases will ensure the safety of residents of the Tver region. For example, in the village of Krasnaya Nov of Kalininsky district, the reconstruction implies the removal of the old overhead line from the territories of residential areas and the construction of a new tap of the power line in compliance with all the rules of protected zones,” the head stressed.
Please, be reminded that the large-scale and unprecedented exercises of power engineers of Rosseti’s group of companies started in the Tver region on 22 September. The exercise involved more than 5,000 employees from 20 branches of IDGC of Centre and IDGC of Centre and Volga Region. Until 22 December of this year, the power engineers will have to clear 6.5 thousand hectares of ROWs of overhead power lines, expand one thousand hectares of ROWs of overhead lines, and also replace 540 km of “bare” wire with self-supporting insulated one (SIW).
