35 kV Power Line “Trbušnica – Zajača”

Power Lines · Loznica – Zajača · 2016 – 2017

The reconstruction works on 35 kV Power Line “Trbušnica – Zajača” were carried out in 2016-2017 at Loznica – Zajača, under investor ODS EPS Distribucija, Loznica Branch.

  • Design, delivery and installation of new steel lattice towers, with previously completed construction works
  • Procurement, delivery and installation of a new Al/steel conductor, with a cross section of 95/15 mm²
  • Delivery and installation of new composite insulators, with suitable coupling and suspension equipment and vibration dampers
  • Installation of surge arresters in Trbušnica and Zajača Substations
  • Installation of disconnectors for construction of branch lines at towers 7 and 32
  • Installation of a new protective OPGW providing protection against lightnings and enabling remote communication between two substations

Prior to the reconstruction, the power line was built on old steel towers and with worn out conductor, making the power supply to consumers unstable, especially in winter conditions.

The reconstruction of the power line with new towers and electrical equipment resulted in a stable and reliable supply to consumers connected to “Zajača” Substation, as well as to consumers connected to 10/0.4 kV pole-mounted substation “Budimlija”, which was achieved by the installation of new disconnectors on branch pylons.
