Packaged Substation · PSS-CS series
Packaged Substation Solutions
A packaged substation brings together major distribution components within an integrated equipment enclosure, simplifying site interfaces and supporting a planned installation workflow. C-SEC publicly lists packaged substation solutions in 12 kV and 24 kV voltage classes.

Inside the package
A typical arrangement comprises an MV switchgear compartment, a distribution transformer compartment and an LV panel compartment within an outdoor-duty enclosure. Optional equipment and exact construction vary by project specification.
02
What it can simplify
Consolidated equipment arrangement, compartment-based access planning, reduced on-site assembly interfaces and improved coordination of enclosure and electrical design—subject to the approved product and project.

Questions about the Packaged Substations
The approved supply scope normally defines MV switchgear, transformer, LV equipment and enclosure interfaces; confirm the bill of materials.
Site works, testing, permits, cable connection and commissioning responsibilities depend on the contracted scope; it is not accurate to promise zero site work.
