Substation

Many industry experts believe a substation is a utility’s most critical asset. Building, operating and maintaining substations is expensive. Even with the advent of some “touchless substations,” which include software systems that eliminate visual inspection and diagnostic tests, when a utility wants to repair a substation or switchyard, utility managers still need construction crews. LEI brings the resources and experience to safely construct these most valuable assets, tackle a scheduled maintenance project or undertake the full array of substation engineering, procurement and construction (EPC).

Our services include:

  • Installing transformers, circuit switchers, breakers, switchgear, bus systems
  • Installing power, control and medium- and high-voltage cabling
  • Connecting security, monitoring and access control systems
  • Erecting structures and control buildings
  • Setting up protection and control systems
  • Laying out ground grids, conduit and duct banks
  • Testing and commissioning
  • Setting and connecting capacitor banks and reactors

Storm Response

Severe weather and natural disasters such as hurricanes, snow and thunderstorms all have the ability to wreak havoc on our nation’s utility infrastructure. LEI is proud of our reputation for quickly assisting communities in need to restore vital services to homes and businesses.
