Both structures will be standalone and constructed with 415mm cavity blockwork. The external finish will be rendered or otherwise suitably finished masonry in a neutral colour. The roofs will be constructed in reinforced concrete. The ESB Electrical substation will accommodate their MV switchgear and equipment necessary to upgrade and reinforce the existing electricity supply to facilitate the operation of a proposed extension and the second room will house the Clients MV switchgear and MV meter. The LV room will house associated low voltage distribution equipment, and the transformer room will house the Clients MV/LV 630 KVA transformer.
