Such sequence of the technical specialists’ actions of the Northern electric grids makes it possible first and foremost to “go to winter” with a more reliable scheme of power supply of all the city consumers, including industrial and social facilities. The fulfilled arrangements allow also to provide a perspective development of the adjoining grid infrastructure, subject to the increasing needs in electric power supplies to the consumers of all the categories and levels of voltage.
