At Level Electrical Hume, we specialise in providing electrical solutions for high-profile, large-scale projects. The Snowy Hydro T2 Power Station Surge Tunnel Radar Level Sensing Equipment Installation involved the supply and installation of critical monitoring systems for the water levels in the surge tank area of the Tumut 2 Power Station. We worked closely with Snowy Hydro engineers to ensure the project met all compliance requirements and was completed on time.
For the Snowy Hydro T2 Power Station project, the following tasks were undertaken:
We began by evaluating the power requirements and planning the installation of radar level sensing equipment. Detailed coordination was necessary to ensure that the installation would occur during scheduled station outages.
Our team supplied and installed radar level sensing equipment to monitor water levels in the surge tank. This required the installation of new switchboards, PLC Aux panels, and power and control cables to integrate the system into the existing infrastructure.
Once the equipment was installed, we performed extensive testing to ensure everything functioned as expected. This included verifying the connection to the central monitoring system and the calibration of the radar sensors.
After completing the installation, we ensured the site was cleared of any debris, securing electrical components and conducting a final inspection to ensure everything was operational and safe.
The installation of radar-level sensing equipment at the Snowy Hydro T2 Power Station presented operational challenges:
Snowy Hydro’s stringent safety protocols and compliance regulations meant that every phase of the project had to meet rigorous standards. Our team worked in close consultation with Snowy Hydro engineers to ensure all safety measures were strictly followed. This collaboration ensured a smooth workflow, as well as full adherence to regulatory requirements, keeping the project on track.
The work required careful coordination with planned station outages to prevent disruption to power generation. We planned our activities to align with these outages, ensuring that the installation of radar-level sensing equipment was as efficient as possible. This careful scheduling minimised operational disruptions and ensured the work was completed within the given time frame.
At Level Electrical Hume, we utilise specialise equipment to ensure efficient execution of complex projects:
Used for accurate water level monitoring in the surge tunnel.
For calibrating and ensuring the radar system functions as required.
For installing power and control cables safely and efficiently.
This equipment enabled us to provide a high-quality solution for the Snowy Hydro T2 Power Station.
Throughout the project, we adhered to rigorous safety protocols and sustainability practices. Our team worked in compliance with Snowy Hydro’s strict safety requirements, ensuring the project was completed without incidents and minimizing environmental impact.
The Snowy Hydro T2 Power Station project was successfully completed, and the surge tunnel radar level sensing equipment is now fully operational, providing real-time data on water levels. The project was completed on time, ensuring minimal disruption to the power station’s operations.
