GTi switchgear for the Henne reservoir

Particularly in environments with high humidity and extreme temperature fluctuations, in the medium- to long-term traditional distributors in sheet steel and their internal electrical components can exhibit signs of heavy corrosion. For the replacement and new construction of distributors, the GTi ISO switchgears from Spelsberg offer a robust, corrosion-free and highly functional alternative. Along with their modular design, they are the appropriate solution for individual customer requirements at challenging installation sites, as demonstrated by their use along the Hennesee dam wall.

Electrical supply, light distribution, and pump control are ensured by switchgears

The Henne reservoir, which is located at the edge of the Sauerland-Rothaargebirg nature park has a dam of over 60 m in height, with a dam wall, and with a total volume of approximately 40 million cubic metres provides a water supply, flood protection and power generation. The electrical supply, light distribution, and pump control are ensured by a number of switchgears. For many years metal housings were used here, but due to the extreme air humidity locally and the temperature fluctuations these corroded and had to be replaced.

The local operator and owner of the dam therefore commissioned the specialist companies Elektro Rettler and Lichthaus Menne, both from Meschede, with implementation. The experts in electrical installations make intensive use of the modular GTi ISO switchgear from Spelsberg, which thanks to its resistant polycarbonate and IP65 level of protection is able to permanently withstand the weather.

Ensure supply process quickly and easily

In the course of the continuous interaction with the customers, the Spelsberg team planned and manufactured a total of ten ready-to-connect and heatable systems, individually adapted to their respective areas of use and which are easily scalable. Local connection by the specialist electrical company was quick and uncomplicated thanks to the detailed advance planning and preparation. Since then, the solutions from Spelsberg have ensured reliable operation of all electrical systems within the overall supply process, from the dam wall to the operations building, and to the complete satisfaction of everyone involved.
