One of Balpara’s biggest detailing projects to date. This project involved the installation of four 66kV circuits to three different Zone Substations around the CBD.
Project Scope
Our customer Daly’s sought our assistance to provide design & as-built detailing in support of their project to install four 66kV circuits linking three major Melbourne CBD zone substations:
In total a length of 37,530 meter 1,600 mm2 1 core XLPE cable was required with 8 x 66kV joint bays.
Balpara’s Involvement
Engaged by Daly’s, Balpara assisted in:
Project Delivery
It required Daly’s to work around the clock managing 24 hour shifts and concrete trucks to fill the excavation. A special backfilling material, FTB (Flowable Thermal Backfill), was required to be able to dissipate the heat and to allow the cable to perform optimally.
