Private Networks

Our electrical engineers supply and install an extensive range of low voltage and high voltage infrastructure up to and including 132,000 volts.  All HV networks require authorised people to operate and maintain them, therefore all of our staff are rigorously trained to the highest standards.  All the team have worked on older networks through to modern, state of the art vacuum and SF6 models, therefore we are highly experienced in new installation and maintaining some of the older networks. Cable joints and terminations are a fundamental component of private networks, therefore the integrity of any system is reliant on their quality and reliability.  We can review your entire network and make recommendations, it is likely that if you have ageing assets, these may be costing you money.

 

Private HV networks are mainly driven by the capacity requirements of each site, however depending on consumption, HV networks may provide financial benefits.  This is due to electricity prices being cheaper per kW/h the higher the voltage is.  Ageing assets may have very poor efficiencies, therefore if you upgrade assets, the energy savings would normally outweigh the cost of replacing the assets.

Electricity North East (Construction & Maintenance) Ltd design and build all types of private HV networks.  Our staff are trained and authorised to the highest standards and will carry out the preparation of tender drawings and documentation, programming of proposed works to incorporate local network constraints and site specific limitations.
