Substation Built in a Container Underground Mine of Newfoundland Canada 2008

Oct 19, 2015
Challenges
Significant costs in terms of equipment and labour, and also of the delays associated with the installation of underground electrical substations.
 
Solution : YellowSub®
Fully fabricated in a 20-foot container, the YellowSub® electrical substation houses all of the power and required protective devices: transformer, circuit breaker, ground, PTO and triggers, ventilation, lighting, fire suppression system and others.

This custom-built substation has the following advantages: 
• Reduces the excavation required to install a substation;
• Eliminates the need for laying concrete flooring;
• Very quick installation and start-up (approximately 72 hours);
• Highly movable and transportable;
• Durability: the substation can easily be moved as the mine is developed.
