In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the first batch of 200 apricot hot-air drying houses in the county, Shuying County began to investigate the power load of the construction sites from the beginning of March. Through investigating the construction requirements of the 135 construction points in the county that meet the apricot hot air drying dry building requirements, the 37-point transformer needs to increase capacity, and a separate transformer is required at one site. After consultation with the power sector, the three-phase electricity meter and transformer at the implementation point are increased. The problem of capacity and new transformers has been solved, and 60,000 meters of three-phase cables and installation costs are being negotiated with the power sector.
