This re-signalling upgrading project was undertaken to improve passenger/train capacity across North London in readyness for the increased passenger numbers of spectators attending the 2012 London Olympics.
Devontech’s involvment was to provide a supply changeover UPS supported containerised Principal Supply Point at Willesden at the westerly end of the project, a DNO/automatic mains failure generator UPS supported containerised Principal Supply Point at Kentish Town, another supply changeover UPS supported containerised Principal Supply Point at Highbury station and at Stratford Station a UPS Auto Bypass System.
At the easterly end of the project at Upminster Control Center Devontech provided a containerised 500kva automatic mains failure generator complete with a 72 hour full load fuel tank ensuring the Control Center was fully operational during a mains failure and providing a synchronised mains restoration.
The generator supplied both the Control Center enviroment management and all signal loads of system.
All sustained loads were supported by a UPS hot standby system (the output of UPS No1 provides the reserve supply of UPS No2). Each UPS could be automaticaly or manually bypassed.
Together with Atkins Rail Devontech delivered the project within a very tight schedule on time and within budget.
