Technical FAQs 4

How do substations manage risks associated with battery storage?

Through these measures, substations can effectively manage risks associated with battery storage and create a safer working environment for all personnel involved. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential for ensuring safety in substations. Workers must have access to hard hats, face masks, shields, safety glasses, and gloves.

What is a containerized mobile substation?

Containerized mobile substations are sheltered and address applications in challenging environmental conditions including areas with high pollution, high humidity, extreme temperatures or sand storms. Containers are easy to transport and fast to install, by reducing foundation works as well as installation and commissioning effort on site.

Are substations safe?

Substations are typically not designed to accommodate visitor traffic, as they are critical and potentially hazardous environments. To minimise the risk of accidents, it is crucial to either restrict or completely ban access to non-essential visitors. This not only enhances safety but also maintains the operational integrity of the site.

What is a safety guide for a substation?

These guides must ensure the visitors adhere to all necessary safety protocols. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is a must for anyone entering the substation, whether they are workers or accompanied visitors. The implementation of strict access control measures can significantly reduce the likelihood of accidents.
