Production Facility

FACTORY CAPABILITIES

The Factory areas and design of Factory Building and services cater for relatively large scale production of heavy and high voltage electrical equipment. The heaviest item included in the production programme weight about 100 tons with a voltage rating of 132KV. The building design takes care of future production of items weighing upto 200 tons and for rated voltages upto 500KV.

25,500 square metres of floor space has been provided in 13 Factory Buildings spread over an area of about 13 Hectares. The floor space occupied by the main production building is about 16,000 square metres. The factory services like steam, compressed air hot and cold water electrical  and gas are provided  laterally from the auxiliary buildings located all along the length of the main production building.

Construction wise the most prominent area in the factory is the Assembly Section and the High Voltage Test Station located at one end of the production building. This section is 138 metres in length with a span of 22 metres. This section is presently serviced by a 100 tons overhead travelling crane, with a provision of another 100 tons crane later. The crane hook’s height is 20 metres to permit lifting and transporation of large size and heavy products, e.g. Power Transformers.
