Underground Cable
Underground Cable Systems
Mechanical and electrical design of high-voltage underground and submarine transmission cable systems, rated up to 525 kV.
Capability overview
Our team applies the latest analysis programs and stays current with the international standards bodies that govern transmission and distribution engineering. We integrate well with client teams and act as owner's engineer where required.
- P.Eng.-led, peer-reviewed deliverables
- CSA, BC Hydro and utility standard compliance
- Independent, manufacturer-neutral recommendations
