Starting 2016 employees of Adygeyskiye electrical networks, branch of Kubanenergo PJSC  (Rosseti Group), have constructed and reconstructed 11 facilities of 10-0.4 kV distribution network in order to connect subsidized consumers dwelling in the foothill villages of Maikopsky district, Adygea.

Power engineers installed two high-tech transformer substations with capacity of 160 kVA each in Kamennomostsky and Krasnooktyabrsky villages. They have also replaced bare conductor with self-supporting insulated conductor on nine overhead transmission lines in Abadzekhskaya, Tulsky, Tabachniy, Kamennomostsky and Krasnooktyabrsky villages.

Subsidized consumers are consumers who have submitted an application for technological connection and increase in connected capacity not exceeding 15 kW, as well as with the distance from the property to the power line of required voltage class not exceeding 500 meters for rural residents and 300 meters for the urban dwellers. The cost of such connection in compliance with the above-mentioned requirements is 550 rubles.

Vladimir Papuc, director of Adygeyskiye electric networks, said: “Provision of timely connection of subsidized consumers in terms set by the legislation is one of the most important tasks of such community focused company as Kubanenergo.  In order to perform these functions we construct new and upgrade the existing power facilities.”
