Complete E&I Lighting Solution for 12 Substations across UAE

The utilities developer Larson & Toubro approached Sharaf DG Energy to install durable and energy efficient lights on its facility in compliance with the safety standards. These are unmanned substations, located in remote highways and are mission-critical facilities that have to be operational throughout the year on a 24/7 basis, coping with harsh desert conditions.

Project outcome

At the foundation of power generation and distribution are the substations, fueling infrastructure projects and coping with the ever-increasing domestic energy demand. Reliable substation yard lighting is crucial for security and daily maintenance. Bright illumination across the stations not only avoid the trespasser but assist the electricians to do the inspection on the electricity tower and power lines at night.

Scope of work

Complying against the ADWEA/ ADDC/AADC specifications, we carried out indoor lighting for switchgear, airlock, mobile DG socket, fire pump, HVAC, LVAC, DC, telecom, SCMS and battery rooms, basements, staircases, corridors and washrooms.

Project lighting design The substation flood lighting system is designed for harsh environments such as high ambient temperature, humid conditions. In detail, high-temperature and explosion-proof LED lights can be applied to different parts of electrical generation and distribution system, such as transmission, distribution tower.
