To improve overall system reliability, operating flexibility, and system performance, a four-point 115kv line was eliminated by constructing a line rebuild looping into the Pequest River substation and expanding it to a 5-breaker ring bus. A new control house was designed and constructed on pier foundations. The ground grid in the 115 kV yard was expanded to encompass the larger transmission substation area. A new cable trench system was installed in the yard to accommodate all the new power and control cables. The project included the installation of two new 34.5kV sub-transmission gas circuit breakers and associated isolation switches. For the 115 kV station upgrade, two new line dead-end structures, ground switches, and four new gas circuit breakers and associated isolation. A 1.3-mile-long transmission line in White Township and Belvidere was also rebuilt as part of this project.
Boswell was responsible for the project management and construction management, survey, and landowner coordination on this project.
