with four lifting eye bolts for loading and unloading. All precaution should be

taken to protect both personnel and material. The vehicle which is carrying

the material should be guided to the right location with the help of the flag

man.

5.2 Capacitor Banks Installation.

Capacitor Banks shifting to the installation location

5.2.1 Before Taking the Capacitor banks to the installation location, it should be

make sure that the entire cable opening should have been created well in

advance.

5.2.2 Once the Capacitor Banks had arrived at the site, it should be offloaded

directly at the 2L substation south side and offloaded on the staircase

platform. Each Cabinet should be unpacked before taking the panel cabinet

inside the 2L substation.

5.2.3 The Cabinet sections should be taken into the substation individually and

with the help of manpower power and hydraulic trolley. Rollers could be

used depends upon the site situation
