4Electrical Energy Infrastructure Electrical Energy Infrastructure


High Availability

Continuity of supply is essential for airports. Two levels of basic requirements can

be identified, namely:

■ Safety for the technical platform (Aircraft, Control Tower, Airfield Ground

Lighting)

■ Continuity for the commercial platform (Passenger Terminal, Baggage

Handling, Boarding Bridges...)

Power availability is formally defined as the probability of correct supply at any

given time. Improving power availability means using functions that minimize

supply downtime. Downtime is often the result of a fault on the network itself or in

the energy source. But another reason can be abnormal energy consumption

leading to excessive stress on the power feeders and incomers and consequent

load shedding.

To provide the operating dependability required, production as a whole

(emergency generator, UPS, etc.), electrical distribution (MV, LV, AC, DC current)

and the other airport utilities (HVAC, etc.) must be designed on the basis of an

overall dependability study that takes into account the notions of reliability,

availability and maintainability.

Schneider Electric provides you with its strong experience in high availability

electrical distribution architecture and a wide range of robust electrical

offerings.

ArchitectureAlthough there is no evidence of an ultimate single-line diagram, some general

rules can be proposed. Since electrical power availability is a main issue,

3 different sources are generally used to supply airports: 2 sources connected

to the utility grid and a generator source. For the same reason, i.e. availability,

a MV ring layout is preferred because it allows automatic and instant MV network

reconfiguration and faulty section isolation.

The generator source may be a group of centralized or distributed generator sets.

In both cases, one of the generators or at least a dedicated circuit is devoted to

the technical platform: Airfield Ground Lighting and Control Tower.

For availability reasons as well, the different MV/LV substations are linked into

different rings according to their level of availability requirements.

The following single-line diagrams show 2 typical airport architectures,

designed by Schneider Electric.


Medium size international hub airport

This airport, fed by 2 main 11kV incomers, chose a centralized backup

(3 generator sets). Schneider Electric designed the architecture, and provided

equipment, optimized cost of kWh produced, easy installation management and

maintenance.

Schneider Electric provides solutions for the protection, automation, monitoring

and control of generator sets: see the specialised brochure to know more.

Ring Main and Substations

For availability reasons, a MV ring layout is generally preferred because it allows

MV network reconfiguration and faulty section isolation. The different MV/LV

substations are linked into different rings according to their availability

requirements. MV/LV substations are the nodes of the Electrical Distribution

network. To contribute to the general continuity of supply, they are expected to

be reliable, dependable and safe.

Schneider Electric, number one in MV/LV substations, provides you with a

unique concept to meet your requirements, whatever they are.

Power quality

Airports require a continuously high level of availability and as few disturbances

as possible should be fed back to the network. But these kinds of requirements

apply more and more to simple electrical installations such as those on LV sites

(terminal). That is why various international standards specify the limits of

disturbances or variation in voltage, voltage unbalance and harmonic distortion.

Waveform disturbancesPotential disturbances may be:

■ voltage dips (or sags)

■ short power interruptions

■ overvoltage (or swells).

They are mainly caused by:

■ load variations in normal operating conditions

■ accidental external phenomena or lightning

These disturbances are not really dangerous for power equipment, but may have

a negative impact on electronic devices or computers such as FIDS (Flight

Information Display System), which have to be protected in order to avoid

malfunctions (errors, false orders, etc.).

Active and reactive powerIn any process only the active energy is converted into light, thermal or

mechanical energy. But the consumer undergoes additional energy losses in

transformers or cables, and higher voltage drops caused by the circulation of the

reactive energy.

Harmonic distortionThe use of electronics has considerably increased in power devices such as

variable speed drives, energy conversion, 400 Hz static converters and

uninterruptible power supply equipment, generating harmonics on the network

and saturating magnetic circuits (motors and cables). These disturbances cause

incorrect operation of certain sensitive devices that are connected to the

network.

Any sort of harmonic distortion disturbs the behavior of electrical equipment and

produces additional losses. These disturbances may also produce operating

faults in electronic devices (relays, PLCs, etc.).

SolutionsFirst of all, the most important thing is to be informed of the power quality: the

solution is to install power monitoring devices, such as those in the PowerLogic

range, in the electrical installations, together with a system to collect, monitor

and analyze data.

In case of problems, once the disturbances have been identified, solutions

consist of:

■ reducing and managing harmonic propagation often through a change in the

electrical installation layout ; our experts can help you

■ installing a compensation device:

passive compensation: Rectiphase capacitor banks

active compensation (power factor correction): Harmonic conditioner

SineWave, Reactivar AccuSine

passive and active compensation: combination of the above solutions


PowerLogic

SMS (Trend plots analysis)



Electrical network management

Once installed, an airport electrical installation has to be managed:

■ improved electrical energy availability

the security and financial consequences of electrical faults call for systems to

be set up to limit down time and / or to safeguard the power supply (automatic

network reconfiguration)

■ network protection

the applications are critical and electrical department managers must use

sophisticated protection systems to ensure the safety of people (airports are

public areas) and property across the entire site

■ operating assistance

the complexity of electrical installations often leads to the installation of a

telecontrol system for enhanced response capability, accuracy and safety. This

system must also provide warning, tracking and rapid reaction in case of a fault

(tripping of a protection device, equipment fault, etc.)

■ power quality monitoring

to avoid premature aging of electrical switchgear, maintenance staff must

monitor power quality problems on a day to day basis (harmonics problems,

overvoltage and voltage reductions, phase unbalance, etc.)

electricity consumption management

with high-scale electrical power consumption, operators must accurately

identify energy losses and find ways of reducing electricity costs

5 Control Tower & Runways

The task of ensuring safe operations of aircraft falls on air traffic controllers. They

must coordinate the movements of thousands of aircraft, keep them at safe

distances from each other, direct them during takeoff and landing from airports,

direct them around bad weather and ensure that traffic flows smoothly with

minimal delays.

To ensure such complex and vital operations, the control tower requires high

availability and quality supply to power all the electric and electronic devices

above mentionned (radio, radar, weather systems, landing systems, Airfield

Ground Lighting...). Also, the IT network connecting all these devices, require

reliability, high speed and fast & easy maintenance.

Secured Power

To ensure a high degree of availability and an optimum quality of electricity, the

control tower must have reliable sources of energy at its disposal:

■ Genset starter redundancy.

■ N+1 redundancy for the UPS systems fitted with a THM (Total Harmonic

Management) filter to prevent Genset source derating and interference due

mainly to odd-order harmonics.

The basic scheme consists of a LV supply from the Gensets via the redundant

UPS systems: the UPS systems are of average power (Galaxy 100 to 200 kVA,

depending on the equipment and the volume of traffic handled by the airport).


Control Tower & Runways

MGE UPS range of UPSs


VDI at the control towerThe control tower is equipped traditionally with a large number of IT devices

including computers, displays, servers, telephones and more recently, CCTV and

surveillance equipment. A majority of these devices require a connection to a

structured cabling system to allow them to work together which in turn means

that a sufficient number of connections (including a provision for expansion)

should be provided in the work area.

The near-universal adoption of Ethernet as the transport protocol of choice for

data and image transmission means that airports will update their IT cabling in

line with the globally-standardised system that has evolved over the last 20

years in support of these Ethernet services. Our cabling systems have been

developed in accordance with the most stringent cabling standards, whether in

balanced copper or optical fibre media and comply with the latest editions of the

local and international standards, ISO 11801 and EN 50173.

Airports are potentially harsh electro-magnetic environments, with possible

sources of interference such as radar, radio transmitters, and antennas. In order

to provide a suitably immune IT cabling system, a fully shielded balanced copper

system would be specified, with each component of the system being 360

degree shielded by metallic elements, which are then earth bonded. Optical fibre

is intrinsically immune from EMI, as its signal is purely optical and hence

unaffected by electro-magnetic waves.

Whichever media is utilised, signal integrity is assured.

VDI at the RunwaysConnecting equipment along runways for control and monitoring purposes

places increased demands on the structured cabling system, due to both the

long distances and to the potentially harsh environmental conditions. Optical

fibre is particularly well suited to these demands and can support applications

such as 10Gigabit Ethernet over distances up to 40 Km.

The environmental conditions can be harmful in several ways. The electro-

magnetic interference effects can be countered by using a fully shielded

balanced system, complying with EN 55022 class B. The environment in which

the cabling and connections must operate is provisioned for by careful selection

of raw materials and construction methods. Optical fibre cable can be specified

with tough Polyethylene jackets (HDPE or LLPE), giving superior waterproofing

and tensile strength, Dielectric (non-conductive) strength members for strength,

crush resistance and rodent resistance together with a gel-filled buffer tube,

acting as a final water-penetration barrier. Jointing and terminating of these

cables is performed and secured within weather and vandal-proofed enclosures,

to ensure the longevity of the connections.

Minimum Switching Time

To secure aircraft landing and take-off is one of the main concern of Airport

Authorities. They have to be sure that the Visual Aids and Instrument Landing

Systems will work in any condition, even if the main Power Supply fails. In such a

case an auxiliary Power Unit with an automatic switching device is mandatory.

ICAO’s Annex 14 and Aerodrome Design Handbook specify the switching time

that is expected according to runway category :

■ Visual Approach

■ Classic Approach

■ CAT I

■ CAT II

■ CATIIIA

■ CATIIIB

This switching time should be 2 minutes, 15 seconds, 10 seconds, 1 second

or 0 second. Also the type of auxiliary power supply and the way of switching

from main to auxiliary are specified by the Annex 14 and the handbook.

Seamless Aircraft TrafficTo speed up the aircraft traffic :

■ enhances the image of the airport

■ allows to process more passengers

■ contributes to increase the revenues

A seamless aircraft traffic in any weather conditions can be achieved by the

installation of a SMGCS (Surface Movement Guidance and Control System). This

system, based on the AGL basic functions, helps the Air Traffic Controllers in

taxying of Aircraft.

MaintainabilityFor security reasons, airport operators have to constantly maintain the AGL

system in good working order and maintenance rules are very strict. Operators

need systems products and components easy to maintain and systems that help

them maintaining.ATC

Safety

Permanent safety of aircraft and their passengers is the prime concern of

airports. For this reason, the GPU (Ground Power Unit) used by airlines, whose

fuel tank constitutes an explosion hazard and presence near aircraft a collision

hazard, are tending to be replaced by fixed electrical installations supplying

aircraft with 400 Hz. Moreover both GPU and APU (Aircraft) are noise and air

quality polluants.

AvailabilityAvailability of all equipment allowing aircraft to take off and land and passengers

to transit is essential for fluid traffic. Consequently, it is unacceptable that the

failure of a static converter installed under the gangway makes equipment

unavailable.

MaintainabilityLikewise, the necessary maintenance operations on converters must not prevent

use of gangways to allow maximum aircraft movement.

Optimised investmentsBearing in mind that not all aircraft use 400 Hz at the same time, surely there

must be a way of optimising power to be installed.

A solution adapted to your needs

A variety of 400 Hz fixed electrical installation architectures are available.

The choice between them mainly depends on airport configuration and on

the number of points to be supplied. An in-depth study is required in the event

of a complex geographical configuration.

According to the results of this study, the following diagram proposes the

optimum solution as a function of the number of points to be supplied.

■ The decentralised mode is recommended for airports with 1 to 6 400Hz

delivery points. Its main advantage is its ease of installation, but the investment

to be made is proportional to the number of points to be equipped.

■ The semi-centralised system is recommended for airports using between

6 and 16 supply points. In this solution, the same converter can supply 2 delivery

points. It is thus possible to adjust the power of the installed converters by

allowing for a limited diversity factor.

■ For more than 16 supply points, the centralised architecture is the most

advantageous:

optimised investment: the cost of installing a centralised system is less

as the diversity factor relates to all the points to be supplied.

increased availability: should a converter fail, airport operation is guaranteed

as the 400Hz supply is maintained throughout the network.

simplified maintenance: as most of equipment is stored in a central zone

outside the restricted zone.

Study and design of the electrical networkOur services are built up around electrical engineering services mainly

comprising:

■ Choice of architecture

■ Definition of the protection plan

■ Study of network stability problems

■ Study of compensators

Production and installation of a “turnkey” solutionMoreover, because the 400Hz area is technically complex, this type of installation

must be controlled in its entirety.

This is because an incorrectly designed installation can have serious financial

and operational consequences.

For this reason, Schneider Electric proposes its 400Hz solution in “turnkey”

with implementation ensured by its Contracting Centres based in 25 countries.

Relayed by means of a commercial and industrial network in more

than 130 countries, Schneider Electric thus ensures a comprehensive service,

from design to after-sales support, not to mention commissioning,

6Airfield Fuel farm


Fuel Installations provide a vital link in the airport operation. As with many other

airport functions fuel installations have two basic requirements:■ Safety of the passengers, operational staff and the environment.■ Continuity as the loss of the ability to refuel aircraft would cause majorcommercial losses in addition to inconvenience of passengers.

To provide the dependability required the system must be designed taking into

account the concepts of reliability, availability and maintainability.

Whether the fuel is transported to the airport by pipeline, rail tanker or barge it is

then pumped to storage tanks via filters. After quality tests the final distribution

to the aircraft either by means of refueler vehicles or a hydrant system requires

further pumping.

However the fuel is delivered and distributed, the control of pumps and the

operation of valves for routing are the core of the control system.

Fuel installations

Power and Control of the fuel installationOur wide experience of pumping applications, not only in Airport fuel

installations,

but in the water and petro-chemical world, enables Schneider Electric to provide

you with a dedicated approach for the Fuel Installation.

Our solutions provide you with :

The elimination of the effects of Hydraulic Transients when pumping by means

7Passenger Terminal Passenger Terminal

A fluid passenger traffic

Passenger traffic is the main criterion in sizing and designing airports.

Then, during operation, it will be the main point of attention directing all actions.

This is because fluid passenger traffic:■ fulfils the expectations of the actual passengers as well as airlines, the twoairport customers■ forms, with architecture, the main image of an airport■ guarantees its income: fluid traffic allows more passengers to be welcomedand thus generates more aeronautical and commercial fees

A pleasant place

A place of transit between two means of transport, the passenger terminal is also

a shopping centre that passengers are obliged to cross. Everything must thus

be done to generate the act of purchase:■ feeling of thermal and visual comfort■ feeling of safety■ enhanced shops and products

Flexibility at all stages

A passenger terminal differs from a conventional shopping centre by the constant

surface changes it undergoes. Turnover of shops, bars and restaurants is in fact

greater than in other shopping centres, as airport customers are more demanding

and changeable.

It must therefore be possible to adapt and modify the sales areas:■ permanently■ quickly■ at minimum cost

Maximum safety

The passenger terminal is also a building open to the general public, i.e. people

not familiar with the premises who, if necessary, must be informed and evacuated

as quickly as possible and in the best conditions, while conforming to standards.

Likewise, its size and situation at the centre of a very large flat surface makes the

passenger terminal a privileged target for lightning. The necessary protective

measures thus have to be taken.

Electrical Distribution solution

Reminder of conventional architectureIn conventional architecture, loads are fed by the main low

voltage switchboard via the subdistribution cubicles. All the

energy travels via the cables feeding the subdistribution

cubicles from the main low voltage switchboard.

This solution leads to a few kilometres of cables and cable trays :

■ Site works are complex and long, owing to the cables

■ System is sensitive to common mode failure

■ Maintenance works force to shut down.

■ One fault on a transformer leads to overload the second one, hence leading

to a general tripping.

■ Several days of shut-down in case of major fault on the main switchboard.

■ Modifications are not easy

Architecture of the Schneider Electric SolutionThis solution is based on the concept of distributed architecture. It uses a PDS

(Power Distribution Satellite) and prefabricated busbar trunking for power

distribution and for lighting.

■ Two separate PDS supply the installation via power busbar trunkings with a

small quantity of tap points which feed the various loads.

■ Distribution boards are located as near as possible from the loads and are fed

directly by the nearest busbar trunkings.

■ An automatic change-over by PDS provides standby power to essential loads.


7Passenger Terminal Electrical Distribution solution

The transformers are functionnally part of the PDS. Nevertheless, they are

situated either close to the PDS, or in a separate room, depending on the local

habit. The solution is unchanged in both cases.

Principle of connection to the power Busbartrunking■ No protection are installed in the tap off box (compliant with installation

standard IEC 364)

■ The overload and short-circuit protection of the distribution switchboard (TD)

are provided by the distribution switchboard incoming circuit-breaker (D2)

■ The overload protection of the connecting cables between busbar trunking and

distribution switchboard is provided by the switchboard incoming circuit-breaker

(D2)

■ The short circuit protection of the connecting cables between busbar trunking

and distribution switchboard is provided by the circuit-breaker upstream the

busbar trunking (D1)

Main advantages :■ Easy and rapid to install

■ Continuity of service is optimum at feeder level :

thanks to an enhanced total discrimination between the protection devices

thanks to an easy access and resetting of the protection devices.


Lighting solution

PDS 2PDS 1Power Canalis

Connexion board

Lighting Canalis

Main advantages :■ Easy and rapid to install

■ A high degree of power-supply continuity of lighting is achieved by using two

separate PDS (a half of the luminaires is supplied by one PDS).

■ The overload and short-circuit protection of the lighting busbar trunking are

provided by switchboard lighting circuit-breakers.

■ The overload and short-circuit protection of the luminaires are provided by tap

off boxes protections.

■ Quick and easy luminaires fault tracking

■ Maximum flexibility for further modifications

7Passenger Terminal HVAC

Whether air conditioning is provided by Rooftops (RT) or Air Handling Units

(AHU), these systems must:

■ ensure thermal comfort

■ ensure hygiene

■ operate at minimum operating costs

Electricity supply and monitoring and control of air conditioning are points to

which particular attention must be paid.

Safety

Maximum safety for personnel and passengers is of prime importance in airports.

All the systems installed must comply with prevailing standards. Failing this, the

premises cannot be operated and the personnel and passengers be informed,

guided and evacuated quickly and safely.

The self-contained emergency luminaires for evacuation are used to evacuate

premises open to the general public in the event of failure of the main lighting

system.

n the position of self-contained emergency luminaires signals access to

emergency exits to simplify circulation and evacuation of people in the building

(obstacles, direction changes)

n in the event of mains failure, use of storage batteries guarantees operation

of the self-contained emergency luminaires for one hour

n the self-testable self-contained emergency luminaires automatically perform

the statutory inspections defined in standard NF C 71820 (battery charge test,

failure simulation, etc.).

Solution for controlling a very large number of self-contained emergency

luminaires:

Voice, Data, ImageVDI networks within passenger terminal have to offer mobility and adaptability tothe users to comply with the new requirements of tertiary environment (desksreconfiguration, open space, user mobility …). Physical infrastructure should befairly integrated into the building and must allow the distribution of links up to theoutlets in a rational and functional way.We propose a wide range of solutions for the cables laying and to distribute thetelecommunication outlets to the work areas. These aesthetic and functionalsolutions allow a complete integration of the VDI cabling system into the building.Our LANwireless solution complying with the IEEE 802.11 standard gives all themobility and adaptability of the radio medium as a natural and complementaryextension of the wired system.

The significant increase of information volume exchanged in local area networksrequires the implementation of new IT applications highly demanding in largebandwidth.The durability of the cabling investment is evaluated by its capacity to support allexisting LAN protocols but also the future ones which may appear during itsusing span.The recommended VDI solutions using balanced and fiber cabling systemscomply with the most demanding standards to guarantee the perfect functioningof emerging networks such as the 1 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

7Passenger Terminal Lightning protection

Schneider Electric Solutions and electric blockdiagram

■ To ensure better continuity of supply:

power distribution is carried out with redundancy thanks to the use

of a back-up power supply (generator set)

to prevent nuisance tripping, RCCBs of the «si» type are to be implemented

■ To ensure protection against atmospheric voltage surges:

since the Passenger Terminal is fitted out with a lightning conductor to protect

against direct lightning storkes, a surge arrester located on the incoming end of

the electric distribution and secondary surge arresters located near electric

equipment are to be foreseen.

Role of surge arrester protection■ Run off the lightning current to the ground, guaranteeing a level of protection

Up that is compatible with the electric equipment to be protected

■ Limit the rise in the earth’s voltage and the induced magnetic field

Wiring recommendations■ Make sure that building frames and earths are equipotentially bonded

■ Earthing systems from each part of the Terminal must be interconnected

■ Reduce loop surfaces of supply cables

Installation recommendations■ Install an incoming surge arrester with an Imax = 65 kA (8/20) in each section

■ A disconnection circuit-breaker associated with each surge arrester is to be

foreseen

■ Install secondary surge arresters with an Imax = 8 kA (8/20) and associated

disconnection

■ circuit-breakers C60 with a rating of 20 A in a cascading configuration with the

incoming surge arrester (buildings A and F)

■ A surge arrester PRI 48 V to protect the Terminal’s PLCs (BHS)

Solutions for preventing interference caused by"non-linear loads"

Solutions for preventing interference caused by "non-linear loads"

To prevent the large number of so-called "non-linear load" devices (e.g. transit

and passenger information screens, computers, etc.) from causing interference

on the network, a study should be carried out to reduce their effects on the

balance and reliability of the general power supply.

The study would mainly deal with the harmonics and relevant local and/or

general equipment and ensure that any problems that might jeopardise the

continuity of service are eliminated.

Equipment concerned: active or hybrid compensators are used to address and

finally overcome such phenomena.

Classification of “non-linear loads”

The many effects of non-linear loads can be divided into two categories.

b Effects related to THDI (Total Harmonic Distortion Intensity)

Overheating of all the components related to an increase in the rms current

Deterioration of the insulants

Derating of the generators and protective devices

b Effects related to THDV (Total Harmonic Distortion Voltage)

The presence of harmonic currents and non null impedances (lines, sources, and

so on) also causes voltage distortion.

Tripping of sensitive electronic devices

Lighting and screen flicker

To estimate a THDV, it is not only necessary to know the type of load (current

spectrum), but also to have a model of the source supplying the distorting load.

8BHS Baggage Handling System


A world under the floor

Baggage processing has become more and more automated, so much so that a

Main Baggage Room is nowadays a true workshop. It is composed of complex

material handling systems operated by hundreds of motors, controlled by

redundant networked systems, and baggage identification and tracking are done

by sophisticated bar code reading devices. And all of this equipment is run by an

electrical distribution system that supplies hundreds of amps.

This level of complexity calls for the right level of know-how to specify

the appropriate Schneider Electric equipment.

Mapping Schneider Electric product applicationto functional requirements

A comprehensive offer to distribute and control power, from MV/LV substations to

motors

The MV/LV substation transforms the primary medium voltage supply into low

voltage via an ATS (automatic transfer source), a static converter which generates

secured 220V 3-phase + neutral.

Those three voltages power the main electrical control panel. 220V secured

power supplies all critical equipment:

24V = power supply of field sensors and actuators, programmable logic

controllers PLC, human machine interface HMI, inspection equipment, computers

and associated peripheral devices (screens...). Regular 220V supplies lights and

outlets. 400V supplies all the conveyor motors. All the supplies are grouped

in sections corresponding to emergency stop chains: e-stop push-buttons

disconnecting all the apparatus located within a section, with a contactor

(seca for example). All circuit breakers have auxiliary contacts wired to the PLC

for information feedback on electrical supply status to the SCADA monitoring

9Passenger Boarding Bridge Passenger Boarding Bridge


The number of passengers has shown a constant trend towards growth

accompanied by an everincreasing demand for comfort, speed, and reliability.

Passenger Boarding Bridges are one of the keystone of a smooth traffic flow,

explaining why they deserve the airport authorities or airline companies

undivided attention.

ReliabilityPassenger Boarding Bridges are asked to combine the maximum levels of

quality, ensuring maximum level of service, with very life cycle costs (investment,

maintenance and operation)

TraceabilityShould the aircraft suffer from the Boarding Bridge positionning, it is very

important to trace all the movements, to be able to identify responsability.

IntercommunicationPassenger Boardig Bridges, like any other device in an airport, have to

communicate with external systems, Scada, control rooms… In some cases,

Passenger Boarding Bridges are networked to ease operations, the PBB server

downloading the service program days before the operations.


A comprehensive and relevant offering leading specialized OEMs to design and

manufacture PBB adapted to airport needs

Both control products (PLCs, HMIs, motor drives) and power supply products

contribute to get smooth operations, reliability, traceability, intercommunication.

Services for airports, from Design to Renovation

The safety of passengers and equipment is more than ever the principal concern

of airport facility managers, together with maintaining full control of landing,

take-off and ground traffic facilities.

The continuity of baggage handling systems and passenger terminal services is

just as vital as well when it comes to maintaining smooth traffic.

The reliability and availability of the different systems (control tower, airfield

ground lighting, baggage handling, passenger terminal) rely directly the electrical

power supply. For very high availability, the power supply must be designed

(equipment, network architectures,...) and also operated (operating modes,

monitoring, maintenance,...) within a strict budget.

So that you can determine, implement and maintain the conditions for optimal

dependability, Schneider Electric offers you a range of proven, world class

services for the 4 main stages in the life of an airport: from the initial design to

renovations.

Renovation■ Upgrading to comply

with new regulations

■ Commissioning of

new runways and

terminals
