Utility substation operators face numerous challenges in maintaining substation functionality, as these facilities are vulnerable to natural disasters, environmental hazards, vandalism, and sabotage.
CSSI has partnered with utility companies to design, manufacture, and install firewall systems that help address these risks. A common design includes panels installed between multiple transformers at a substation. Our panels can be angled to fit tight spaces, can be installed in extreme cold weather, and are designed to perform in harsh environmental conditions, including extreme weather and seismic events.
This flexibility enables customized composite wall systems for substations that mitigate fire risk, safeguard adjacent structures, and enhance public safety.
