Industrial Power Distribution Upgrade

Lagos, Nigeria/Completed 2023/Manufacturing Facility
Project photography

Project overview

A manufacturing facility in Lagos required an upgrade of its power distribution system to support a new production line. The existing system was operating near capacity and could not accommodate the additional load.

We designed and installed a new medium-voltage substation, transformers, and low-voltage distribution panels. The project included protection coordination, cable installation, and full commissioning.

The challenge

The facility needed to maintain production during the upgrade, requiring careful planning and phased implementation to minimize downtime.

02

Our approach

We designed a parallel distribution system that was installed and tested while the existing system remained operational. The switchover was completed during a planned maintenance window.

Outcomes

What the project achieved

01Increased distribution capacity by 60%
02Zero unplanned downtime during upgrade
03Improved protection coordination
04System energized on schedule
