Planning application

Tresallyn Farm Sanders Hill St Merryn Padstow Cornwall PL28 8JZ

Granted Cornwall PA25/07786 Overhead Electricity Lines

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

National Grid have been requested to provide a three phase connection to a location which is remote from our existing network. To facilitate this connection there is a requirement to add a third wire to two spans of HV overhead network from pole 43N25 - 43N25B for approximately 175m, highlighted in green on the plan CE5769093SECT37. From pole 43N25A it is proposed to extend the HV network by an underground cable for approximately 838m. This cable will support a stand alone 'H' pole configuration upon which a three phase pole mounted transformer will be erected. The proposed pole mounted transformer will provide the new connection at three phase by an underground LV cable. These works are highlighted in pink on the plan
