Reconstruction of 10 taps of a 10 kV overhead power line is in progress. Installation of the latest electrical equipment will provide greater reliability, safety and little service of the power facility.

Two transformers of 4 MVA were replaced with more powerful and modern ones of 6.3 MVA. As a result, the total capacity of the substation has increased by 37%, which will allow to solve the problem of power shortage in the region and improve the reliability of power supply to consumers.
