MEGATRO provide design and fabrication of Switch stands substation equipments for our overseas clients.
Switch stands substation equipments consist of square pipe, channel steel, angle steel or circular pipes which welded or bolted together as steel supports for substation equipments. Our Switch stands substation equipments have features as follow:
Custom designed to meet your dimensional requirements
Certified drawings & calculation package provided
Galvanized to ASTM A123
Design codes and specifications:
Industry: NESC, IEEE standard 605, and ASCE Manual 113
Wind: Per 2009 IBC & ASCE/SEI7-05
Seismic: Per 2006 IBC section 1613, ASCE 7-05 section 15.1.3 &12.8
Welding: ANSI/AWS D1.1-06
In material, we adopt high strength steel such as ASTM A572 GR50, GR65, Q420, Q460, S355J0, S355J0, Fe510, ST52 or other equivalent steel to meet project requirements. MEGATRO can optimize design and make Switch stands substation equipments with solid, high strength, good wind resistance, and economy in the use of materials.
After fabrication all Switch stands substation equipments, are delivered to the galvanizing facility to be Hot DIP Galvanized. Switch stands substation equipments are processed through the facility by Caustic Cleaning, Pickling, and then Fluxing. These strict procedures insure years of maintenance free towers.
