Case study: transformer
relocation
Recently, eThekweni Electricity awarded
Lovemore Bros the contract to relocate
a large transformer on site at Klaarwater
Sub-Station in Marian Industrial Estate,
Durban. The transformer, which was
quite badly damaged due to an electrical
fire, needed to be relocated to make
way for a new replacement transformer.
The heavy rigging team came
up with a solution to relocate the
transformer a sufficient distance from
its original position to facilitate the
cutting up and disposal of the burnt-out
transformer. They found a combination
of their Hydraulic Gantry and new Assist
Powered Modular Carrier (APMC) the
perfect solution for this application.
The APMC made precise work of the
tight turns and steep incline on site,
especially considering the very heavy
load of 120 tons.
Lovemore’s fleet of modern, heavy-
duty mechanical horses with a variety
of lowbed trailers are specifically geared
for the transport of extremely heavy and
wide loads. All operators of the trucks
and trailers are experienced abnormal
load drivers, and a specialised team
of consultants conduct route surveys
and measure accurate heights to
ascertain route feasibility. Lovemore’s
professional and comprehensive range
of logistics services ensure that all
loads are delivered safely and reliably.
