Substations for Industries: Overhead or Enclosed Pole?

Substations for Industries: Overhead or Enclosed Pole?

Choose the ideal medium voltage system for your industry.

Industrial expansion demands reliable power. Therefore, the choice between an overhead or enclosed substation is strategic. Furthermore, this decision directly impacts the operational continuity of your factory. With the goal of optimizing investments, we analyze the best technical options for your business.

Overhead Transformer Substation: Efficiency and Cost

The aerial substation uses one or more concrete poles for support. Therefore, it is a low-cost solution with quick installation. However, its capacity is limited to lower power levels. On the other hand, it perfectly serves new small and medium-sized industries. Furthermore, WGB Arquitetura e Engenharia designs these systems strictly following the guidelines of local utility companies. For example, when working in the industrial park near the Itajaí Port Complex, we guarantee the necessary technical compatibility for quick connection to the electrical grid.

Enclosed Substation: Robustness and High Capacity

For industries with high demand, an enclosed substation is indispensable. First, the equipment is protected in masonry or metal enclosures. Consequently, maintenance becomes safer and the system more resistant to weather. Furthermore, an enclosed substation allows the installation of more technologically advanced medium-voltage panels. Therefore, you ensure greater control over internal power distribution. It is fundamental, however, that the entire project observes the... NBR 14039, which governs medium-voltage electrical installations up to 36.2 kV.

Planning and Technical Compliance

Planning is the heart of industrial engineering. Furthermore, a well-designed substation prevents critical voltage drops, thus reducing premature wear and tear on your equipment. For example, we design every detail to integrate the infrastructure with the industrial plant's architecture, prioritizing safety and energy efficiency. Ultimately, a well-designed substation is an asset that increases the value of your industrial property.
