The Challenge

• Reduce the number of power incidents which caused delays on Queensland Rail’s busy inner-city network in Brisbane

• Build a more reliable system to help cope with 1.5 million extra visitors to the 2018 Commonwealth Games

• Install a new substation at Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley station, in a space allowing for just a 24-square foot (7.3 m2) container

• Carry out the work with minimal disruption to passengers

The Solution

Reliability with EcoStruxure Power

Edge Control: Citect SCADA
Connected Products: GHA Rail, Gutor PXC, Compact NSX

• A new substation using a range of solutions based on EcoStruxure Power
• These included the GHA Rail gas-insulated switchgear, MiCOM protection relays, a Gutor PXC industrial UPS system, Compact NSX circuit breakers, a compact LV Spacial SF enclosure, and Citect SCADA monitoring and control software

The Results

• Minimized on-site work during the upgrade, avoiding as many interruptions to commuters as possible

• Reduction in the number of incidents which impact the entire inner-city network, resulting in fewer delays to commuter services

• Overcame the challenge of ensuring power reliability for 1.5 million extra passengers during the Commonwealth Games
