Document Description
The project involves demolition of the 6,269 square foot J26 Date Growers Building and the construction of a new 92-kV switching station. The project consists of the installation of four (4) 92-kV bays, one (1) control building including relay panels and a battery room; auxiliary equipment, and related grading, grounding, concrete foundations, structures, conduit, and perimeter block wall. Transmission power lines CI, R, K, CL, CN and CM will be relocated from the Coachella Switching Station to the new Grapefruit Switching Station. The project also includes four off-site poles for an overhead transmission line extending east across State Route 111/Grapefruit Boulevard, crossings over a roadside ditch and rail line, through an agricultural field to connect to an existing transmission tower. The existing circuit between Coachella Switching Station and Coachella Gas Turbines (GTs) will be intercepted with a 92-kV double circuit transmission line to Grapefruit Switching Station.
