Factory-built Outdoor Prefabricated Substations designed for 10kV, 20kV and 35kV medium-voltage systems, with transformer capacity up to 10000 kVA. Our turnkey solutions are widely used in utility networks, EPC projects, industrial plants and renewable energy applications, ensuring fast deployment, high safety and long-term reliability.
An outdoor prefabricated substation is a factory-assembled and fully integrated power distribution system that combines:
Medium-voltage switchgear
Power or distribution transformer
Low-voltage switchgear
Protection, control and auxiliary systems
All components are assembled, wired and tested in the factory before delivery, allowing rapid on-site installation and commissioning with minimal civil work.
Depending on project requirements, prefabricated substations are also commonly referred to as:
Compact Substation, Package Substation, Containerized Substation, E-House, Modular Substation or Skid-Mounted Substation.
Our prefabricated substations are delivered as a complete turnkey solution, reducing project coordination complexity and shortening construction schedules.
Fully enclosed metal or concrete housings provide excellent protection against weather, dust and unauthorized access, ensuring safe outdoor operation.
Designed and manufactured in accordance with IEC and international standards, suitable for global utility and EPC tenders.
Optimized internal layout minimizes land use while maintaining easy access for operation and maintenance.
Voltage level, transformer type, enclosure design and protection scheme can be customized based on project requirements.

Q1. What is an outdoor prefabricated substation?
An outdoor prefabricated substation is a factory-built power distribution unit integrating MV switchgear, transformer, LV switchgear, protection and control systems, delivered as a turnkey solution for fast on-site installation.
Q2. What is the difference between a prefabricated substation and a compact substation?
In most projects, prefabricated substation and compact substation refer to the same concept. The term “prefabricated substation” is more common in EPC and utility tenders, while “compact substation” is widely used in industrial and commercial applications.
Q3. What voltage levels are available for prefabricated substations?
Outdoor prefabricated substations are typically available for 10kV, 20kV and 35kV medium-voltage systems, with transformer capacities up to 10000 kVA.
Q4. Which standards are required for outdoor prefabricated substations?
Most projects require compliance with IEC 62271, IEC 60076, IEC 61439, along with CE and ISO certifications depending on the target market.
