SubStations

Our substation engineering services, based on industry codes and standards, provides complete construction packages including calculations, specifications, drawings and the bill of materials for site development & permitting, foundations, civil/structural, electrical equipment & components, grounding, spill prevention control, relay & control, and testing & commissioning. Substations provide a critical link to our country’s power grid. AEPC’s engineering and construction teams help you upgrade and retrofit existing facilities as well as install new, traditional substations and renewable substation collector systems.

Upon completion of these projects, if you need additional relay metering, testing, control, we do that, too – as well as hauling, transporting and start-up procedures. We do it all – from design through putting the oil in your transformer. 

AEPC provides industry-leading engineering, construction, relay metering and controls and equipment system testing for voltages up to 500kV
Transmission. Transmission lines carry high-voltage electricity on larger gauge wires from power plants to local communities and between regions.

AEPC has engineered, built, and maintained transmission configurations for thousands of kilometers of transmission lines, structures and foundations for virtually every size, locale and topography.

AEPC provides Transmission Engineering and Transmission Construction for 44 to 345kV.
