HV Substation Onboarding Report

by LV Power, from the Community

Use this HV substation onboarding report to verify new or transferred sites. Record DNO Substation ID, SLD accuracy, key safe systems, auto-reclose status, first aid and signage, and general condition. Capture details for switchgear (ratings, relays, locks, identification, moisture, earthing), transformer (ID, KVA, oil levels, cooling, leaks, breather, tap changer), and batteries or chargers. Log earth test readings, partial discharge results, photos, and comments, then summarize serious concerns and sign off.

UKPD Post Substation Commissioning Checklist
Use this UKPD Post Substation Commissioning Checklist to verify substation readiness and compliance. Inspect general condition and access, security locks, ventilation, plates and danger notices. Check HV switchgear (SF6 pressure, locks, engraved labels, relay settings), transformer (oil level, tap changer, earthing, flanges, rating plate), substation earthing and bonding, LV cabinets and boards (labels, numbering, MDI ratio, earthing), MCCB/ACB settings and locks, HV/LV cables and trenches, and record MDI readings and comments.

Electricity Substation Inspection Report
Use this electricity substation inspection report to systematically assess site security, structures, and critical equipment. Verify doors, gates, locks, fencing, roof and walls, gutters, windows, panic doors, safety and electric shock notices, fire equipment, lighting, heating, trenches and covers, ventilation, and overall housekeeping. Inspect transformer condition, paintwork, signs of overheating, oil levels and leaks, silica breather, and tap changer security. Check HV switchgear including labels, operating handles, relays and meters, relay flags, oil and gas pressures, and padlocking. Review LV fuseboard, cable condition, earthing systems, battery and charger, test plugs, earthing attachments, and network diagram. Record evidence of trespass or vandalism, perform a discharge test, note issues and corrective actions, and capture signatures.

HV Substation Inspection Certificate
This HV Substation Inspection Certificate template helps teams assess the condition and safety of substations, including building security, housekeeping, ventilation, and electrical testing. It covers transformer checks for oil leaks, sight glass levels, earthing, silica gel replacement, and general condition. It guides inspections of switchgear, circuit breakers, earth switches, and ring main units, including oil or SF6 levels and handle condition. Additional steps include verifying relays and control panels, battery systems, emergency lighting, telemetry or SCADA, and flood defenses. The template supports documenting oil samples, remedial actions, and safety concerns for compliance and maintenance records.

HV Substation Inspection Checklist 2023
This HV substation inspection checklist, developed by CBRE Managed Services, supports routine visual inspections of high voltage substations. Use it to verify access control, locks, fencing, doors, lighting, louvers, gutters and drainage, housekeeping, communication systems, and emergency contacts. Inspect HV switchgear for abnormal noise, labels, charging handles, cables, glands, earthing, gas pressure and oil or compound leaks. Review transformer condition including temperature, oil level and samples, breather, silica gel, paintwork and overgrowth. Confirm battery chargers, heaters, mats, signage, CPR notices, site schematics and logbooks are in place. Record defects, add photos, raise work orders, and capture signatures.
