Construction Work
132 kV High Voltage Transmission Line “Iberá´s Substation — Paso de los Libres Norte´s Substation”
The scope of work included the executive project, the detailed engineering, the supply of materials and the construction of a 132 kV single circuit line, designed for double circuit line, between Iberá´s Substation (located in the town of Mercedes) and Paso de Los Libres Norte, in Corrientes Province, Argentina.
The scheduled time for the execution of our contract was eighteen months.
The length of the line is 74 km and it was built with reinforced concrete poles, 300/50 mm² aluminum-steel conductor cable and OPGW for communications.
The work was completed on August 4th, 2016.
132 kV High Voltage Transmission Line “Brugne´s Substation — Future Saladas Substation”
The scope of work included the executive project, the detailed engineering, the supply of materials for the construction and the construction of a 132 kV double circuit line between Brugne´s Substation (located in the town of San Lorenzo) and Saladas, located in Corrientes Province, Argentina.
The scheduled time for the execution of our contract was fourteen months.
The length of the line is about 24 km. It was built with steel structures, 300/50 mm² aluminum-steel conductor cable, steel ground wire and OPGW.
The contract´s scope of work, as was mentioned above, included the executive project, the detailed engineering, the supply of materials and the construction of a, 4.18 km long, 33 kV medium voltage line, located in the town of Saladas, and a switching station.
The work was completed on February 4th, 2022.
132 kV High Voltage Transmission Line “Bahía Blanca´s Substation — Luz Tres Picos Oeste´s Substation”
The purpose of the 132 kV double circuit line that links Tres Picos Oeste´s and Bahía Blanca´s Substations is to transport the energy that produces both El Mataco and San Jorge´s Wind Farms.
Built with prestressed concrete poles, the line has two conductors per phase, in vertical coplanar configuration, a 50 mm² ground wire against atmospheric discharges and an OPGW for communications.
Throughout its 48-kilometers of length, consisting of 333 structures, the line crosses National Route Nº33, two rail tracks, one 132 kV overhead power line, the Naposta´s Stream and by reaching Bahía Blanca´s Substation, three extra high voltage 500 kV power lines.
The work required a high level of engineering with more than 70 construction drawings and 85 calculations reports.
The construction required more than 3,200 m³ of concrete, 120 tons of iron and 290 km of conductors.
More than one hundred people were employed, exceeding a total of 150,000 man-hours, providing jobs to the entire region.
The benefit of building the line is to provide 380.000 homes with energy.
Completion of the construction, supply and assembly of the 132 kV lines from ET 500 kV Gran Paraná, extension of 132/33/13.2 kV Paraná Norte and communications works in ET Paraná Este and ET Crespo.
The project included the completion of the Paraná Norte III and IV 132 kV double-terminal high voltage line, which links the Gran Paraná Transformer Station with the Paraná Norte Transformer Station.
The line is 9 km long and includes a vertical coplanar arrangement of conductors and polymeric “line-post” insulation with both triads located in the same vertical plane. The structures are made of prestressed reinforced concrete, while the phase conductor is a 300/50 mm² aluminum-steel conductor cable and the guard cable is of the OPGW type.
The project included the erection of double and triple reinforced concrete structures and tubular metal structures of the flanged type, assembly of insulators and the laying of conductor and guard cable.
In addition, complementary tasks were carried out as part of the project.
The work was completed on June 24th, 2024
