Substations for Mining, Tunneling and Dredging Applications

Effective distribution, control, and transmission of electricity at a mining site is an essential part of ensuring that operations run smoothly and safely. Power from a central station will require a mining or tunnel substation to supply direct current to operate electrical equipment by transforming high voltages to direct current at 250 or 500 volts.

Underground mining substation

Underground mining substations present some additional challenges. Extra considerations have to be taken into account to ensure that the roof is reinforced, and the area must be fireproof. Substations used underground will need to be flameproof and may need to be galvanised to protected against corrosion.

Portable substations for mining

A mobile or portable electrical substation is a self-contained trailer/container equipped with the necessary high and medium voltage components of a full substation, such as the power transformer and switchgear. These are used when the installation of a permanent mine substation is not economical or to quickly restore electrical services during an outage.
