MOESK power engineers took the unusual engineer decision. This is the underground substation consisting of four sections equipped with fifty cells of SM-6 type and the subscriber part consisting of sixteen SM-6 cells, and two power transformers of 1 250 kWA capacity each.

They also created two block-complex transformer substations of 2 BKTP type. Each substation is equipped with two power oil transformers of 1 250 kVA capacity each subjected for the power supply of two multistoried buildings build near the complex. They carry out the works directed to the construction of three more transformer substations of 2 BKTP type of 1250 kVA capacity, for the power supply of the second turn of the multistoried buildings.

To put the object into operation, from two feeding centers to the distribution substation they laid high voltage cable lines with the insulation made of the cross-linked polyethylene of 10 kV capacity, of more than 30 kilometers total length.

Currently the power supply of the complex is transited to constant feeding.
