About The Temporary Electrical Substation Design

Circular no.: P&T/82/6/KR

 
With the aim to improve productivity and for the industry to move towards a more sustainable construction industry, The Singapore Contractors Association Ltd (SCAL), together with Hexacon Construction Pte Ltd and Mott Macdonald have worked with SP PowerGrid Ltd (SPPG) to produce a Pre-approved Standardised 1 MVA Temporary Electrical Substation Design for Construction Sites.
 
The Pre-approved Standardised 1 MVA Temporary Electrical Substation Design will serve as a reference for contractors who wishes to use the temporary substation for their projects. With the pre-approved design and layout,  the processing time for the submission and review of temporary substation plans will potentially be shorten, provided that no modification is done to this pre-approved design and layout by the applicant. However, the timeline for final approval of the substation will subject to the incoming pipe routing to the temporary substation.

The drawing for the Pre-approved Standardised 1 MVA Temporary Electrical Substation Design is contributed by Mott MacDonald. SCAL would like to thank Mott MacDonald and Hexcon Construction for the contribution and dedication to this initiative.
