HV/LV prefabricated substation products and HV installations in a prefabricated housing

The purpose of this article is to clarify the scope of application of HV/LV prefabricated substations and HV installations within a prefabricated enclosure which meets customer expectations. In this context, any functional analysis of an HV/LV substation within a prefabricated enclosure should at least cover the topics specified in the product standard. This is what we will be examining. We will also attempt to clarify the impacts on prefabricated substation type tests in order to understand their possible extension or call them into question with respect to HV substations. As with any prefabricated enclosure, an HV installation within a prefabricated enclosure must be safe, transportable, maintainable and sustainable and the design-to-installation processes must be controlled, with no breach of responsibility, whatever the entity.
