Civil works and Equipment Manufacturing

Civil works
The civil works are by their nature the first site activities and they have a considerable impact on the total schedule. Efficient management of civil works design and construction is crucial to project success. At the site, experienced ABB personnel manage the work, but all civil contractors are local. Co-ordination with other activities at site is very important and a must for the successful performance of the project work.

Equipment Manufacturing

Upon completion of the design work, purchasing and manu-facturing can commence. The HVDC division's QA department must approve our sub-suppliers, the majority of which are other from within ABB. Before the equipment can be shipped to site, each item has to pass tests that is
witnessed by the customer or his representative.
