  • Earthworks: Execution of bulk earthworks and installation of a subsoil drainage system.
  • Foundation Construction: Construction of foundations for critical high-voltage (HV) equipment, including surge arrestors, voltage transformers, disconnectors, circuit breakers, current transformers, and the 330kV bus support structure. This also included foundations for insulator posts, gantry towers, lighting, and security poles.
  • Civil Works: Construction of kerbs, gutters, concrete V drains, roadside kerbs, hardstand areas, and associated sewer services.
