Integrated capability

Power Grids, Transmission, Distribution & AIS/GIS Substations

Connect generation and demand through grid infrastructure engineered for reliability, safety and control.

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.

Grid infrastructure scope

01Transmission and distribution lines
02AIS and GIS high-voltage substations
03Primary and secondary system engineering
04Protection, control, RTU and SCADA
05Reactive power and power-quality solutions
06Testing, commissioning and energisation

Key interface questions

01Which voltage level and busbar arrangement fit the system?
02What are the utility protection and communication requirements?
03Where do OEM, civil, electrical and control responsibilities meet?
04How will outages, extensions and brownfield risks be managed?

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.
