The new two-storey building is to be specifically designed and constructed within the perimeter of the existing energized 500kV switchyard at the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station to house the 500kV GIS switchgear, relay and battery equipment. This will replace the existing ABCBs in the Bruce B SS switchyard that are at end-of-life.
