Al Baha Substation Upgrade

A new 33 kV switchgear room at the Al Baha CPS substation, combined with the reconductoring of the 132 kV single-circuit overhead transmission line between the Namerah North and Mikwah substations. Reconductoring replaces the conductors on an existing line to raise its capacity without building a new route.

SDEC provided multidisciplinary engineering design for the new switchgear room and the line reconductoring, working with Nesma Infrastructure and Technology as the construction contractor. SDEC's substation design integrates electrical, protection, civil, architectural and mechanical systems into coordinated design packages.
