22 (twenty two) 132/11 kV primary substations exist in Abu Dhabi Island. In line with ADDC's standards, the number of 11 kV outgoing feeder panels per substation is 48 (forty eight). This standard design was adopted from the year 2005. However, most of the primaries commissioned prior to 2005 have less than 48 (forty eight) 11 kV outgoing feeders.
With the objective to install additional 11 kV outgoing feeder panels, ADWEA commissioned a study on 12 selected existing 132/11 kV primary substations in Abu Dhabi Island and the implementation of the recommendations for network augmentation at these substations.
The scope of these consultancy services included study, design, preparation of tender documents, tendering and supervision of the supply, the installation and the commissioning of 11 kV outgoing feeder panels at some of the above primary substations. The aim was to utilize the available spare FIRM capacity to serve new customers / connections, to reinforce the existing network and also provide panels for connecting the battery energy storage system (BESS).
