- Complex phasing plan development and execution
Such projects should include these specific components:
- Medium voltage (12KV) ductbank, cables, terminators and splices.
- Medium voltage equipment, minimum 2000A metal-clad switchgear with main breakers, tie breakers, feeder breakers, protective and control relays and meters.
