Proposal
Install one span of aerial bunded conductor (ABC) as highlighted on the attached plan. This is a sheathed conductor and will improve the performance of the network, reducing the risk of interference by airboure activity. The span will be 240/415 volts and therefore less than the existing 11,000 voltage overhead line. These works will improve the reliability and performance of the electricity network in the area. UK Power Networks would deem this proposal as not having a significant adverse effect on the environment.
