Direct answer
Grid projects combine primary equipment, protection and control, telecommunications, SCADA, civil works, auxiliary power, earthing, testing and energisation. Definova coordinates transmission, distribution and AIS/GIS substation scopes around grid-code, availability and lifecycle requirements.

Key interface questions
Reliable integration
Equipment selection is coordinated with system studies, insulation coordination, protection philosophy, layout, constructability, maintainability, spares and future expansion.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between AIS and GIS?
AIS uses air insulation and generally needs more space; GIS uses gas-insulated enclosed equipment and can reduce footprint. Selection depends on site, environment, lifecycle and technical requirements.
Does substation EPC include SCADA and protection?
It can. The exact scope should define primary equipment, protection, control, RTU, telecommunications, SCADA, auxiliary systems and testing.
Can existing substations be modernized?
Yes, subject to site surveys, outage constraints, equipment condition and a defined migration and commissioning strategy.
The right next step
Define the need through outcome, site, grid, process, timing and risk—not an equipment list. Definova uses the first conversation to clarify critical interfaces and the required decision path.
