3. INRODUCTION
An electrical substation is a part of an electricity generation,
transmission and distribution system where voltage is transformed
from high to low or in reverse using transformers.
4. SUBSTATION DESIGN CRITERIA
• Sub-station should be located at load center
• Sufficient land area
• Grounding
• Easy of maintenance
• Possibility to Expand
• Reliability and Security
• Electrical design considerations
5. SUBSTATION PARTS

SUBSTATION FUNDAMENTALS
16. GAS INSULATED SUBSTATION:
GIS is the most suitable solution for indoor and underground
substations. In outdoor and hybrid substations, the occupied area is
tremendously reduced
by using GIS technology.
17. HTS (High Temperature Superconductors) substation
Many applications of superconducting technology such as HTS cable,
HTS transformer, HTS Fault Current Limiter (FCL), Superconducting
Magnetic Energy Storage(SMES) are analyzed .
18. INTELLIGENT ELECTRONIC DEVICES (IEDS)
Recent multifunctional Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) provide
higher performance, reduction in operating cost, reduction in size, increase in
efficiency and improvement in robustness in the existing substations
22. WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
• Wireless communication is another option for data transfer from
substation switchyard to control house which does not require wire
installation in the switchyard.
• This solution is easy to install and provides compact low cost
solution.
23. The most significant features of fiberglass material are: cost-
effective, strong and durable, easy to install, corrosion and rot
resistant, safe and long lifetime.
Fiberglass materials are a competitive alternative for steel,
wood and concrete in construction applications
FIBERGLASS APPLICATIONS IN SUBSTATION
24. CONCLUSION
The following are goals concluded for this approach:
Adding new equipments to supplement existing
substation as well as paving the
way for the future replacement of legacy solution
Replacing existing equipment due to
performance or age deterioration as well as
making it compatible for total future replacement
Balancing the need for open system design and
cyber security demands while
expanding the best practices and gradually
training personnel for new equipment
