Ways to deliver power engineering specialists to power grid facilities in areas of possible flooding are practicing. Cooperation with the territorial subdivisions of EMERCOM is establishing.
Particular attention is paid to equipping of field service and maintenance teams, presence of life jackets and other Personal Floating Devices, security enforcement while traveling on the water and execution of repair works in flooded areas.
Unscheduled inspections of buildings and structures, stormwater drainage, well extraction chambers, cable channels and tunnels, supporting and load-bearing structures, transformer substations are performing before flood. The condition of rain removal systems, operating capacity of devices for underground accommodations’ dewatering, means of communication and mechanization, motor transport is tested.
“To reduce the ground waters influence during winter period snow was regularly taken out from power grid facilities”, Chief Technical Officer of JSC "MOESK" Anatoly Chegodaev noted.
