Ayersville Substation Expansion and 138 kV Transmission Line Partial Rebuild Project (OPSB Case No. 26-0122-EL-BLN)

In this Project, ATSI is proposing to expand the existing Ayersville Substation to convert the existing substation configuration into a (4) breaker 138 kV ring bus as well as the installation of a 138/69 kV transformer. To facilitate this, the substation will expand from its existing square footage of approximately 7,000 square feet to approximately 85,950 square feet. As part of the Project, an approximately 0.5-mile section of the existing Ayersville-Richland 138 kV Transmission Line will be rebuilt to support the 138 kV line and complete the new extension of the Ayersville-Sand Ridge 69 kV Transmission Line to Ayersville Substation. To facilitate this, a total of sixteen (16) new structures will be installed, including four (4) steel structures on concrete foundations, eleven (11) direct embed steel structures and one (1) wood pole.

The Project is in the city of Defiance and Richland Township, Defiance County, Ohio.
