Transport

Transportation of Switchgears is placed properly. Crane will be used and all necessary precaution matures will be taken. Provide truck to transportation of Switchgears and accessories from storage area to the field. Use crane for lifting and carrying Switchgears. When Crane will be used according to 7.3. lifting operation. It will be stayed suitable places, so it prevents to work and workers work safely.
