Routine maintenance at an electrical power facility requires careful planning, coordination, and dependable support. When the electrical grid needs to be taken offline for scheduled service, keeping essential equipment fueled is an important part of maintaining a safe and productive work environment.
Recently, Hart Fueling completed an on-site diesel fueling job at a high-voltage electrical facility in Sacramento, California. The facility was conducting scheduled maintenance and required diesel fuel to keep mobile equipment operating while the grid was temporarily taken offline for servicing.
Delivering Fuel Directly to the Sacramento Job Site
Electric facilities depend on careful preparation when taking equipment or portions of the grid offline for maintenance. Having a reliable source of diesel on-site can help ensure that generators, transformers, and other diesel-powered equipment have the fuel they need throughout the service process. Our team delivered diesel directly to the site and refueled the equipment that was supporting the maintenance operation, including a backup diesel generator and transformer.
Fueling at an electrical facility also requires attention to safety and the surrounding work environment. Our team made sure to follow the applicable site safety protocols and took steps to minimize the potential impact of a fuel spill.
As part of the job, we provided a containment berm to help contain any potential spills within a small, controlled space rather than risking fuel spreading toward other equipment or work areas. This type of proactive containment is an important consideration when performing fueling operations around valuable equipment and active maintenance operations. Hart emphasizes safety and compliance as part of our fueling services and always follows applicable OSHA and local safety requirements.
