At the Himmeta substation, the hub of the project, approximately 620 square meters of fire-extinguishing grating from Weland have been installed\u2014an important fire protection solution designed to suppress a potential oil fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kapacitet V\u00e4stmanland is Vattenfall Eldistribution\u2019s major initiative to strengthen and upgrade the electricity grid in the M\u00e4lardalen region. The area is attractive for new industrial investments, and electricity demand is increasing. The planned new 130 kV transmission line will reinforce M\u00e4larenergi Eln\u00e4t\u2019s existing 40 kV network between Himmeta, Arboga, and Kungs\u00f6r, with commissioning scheduled for 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reduced Fire Risk<br><\/strong>The existing substation in Himmeta, located just outside K\u00f6ping, is a key point in the project. A transformer pit is a critical component of the power grid\u2014a recessed area in the ground where the transformer is installed. Its primary purpose is to collect spilled liquids, such as transformer oil, in the event of a leak or equipment failure. By containing the spread of these liquids, the risk of both fire and environmental damage is reduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where Weland\u2019s fire-extinguishing grating comes into play\u2014a patented solution specifically developed for transformer pits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Three Seconds<br><\/strong>Weland\u2019s fire-extinguishing grating has been designed to rapidly suppress an oil fire. Tests conducted by the Danish Institute of Fire and Security Technology demonstrated an extinguishing time of just three seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Betonggruppen, the project contractor and a subsidiary of Bygg &amp; Schakt in Ving\u00e5ker, the product was already well known.<br>\u2013 It is a robust and reliable fire protection solution. We have used the grating in a couple of previous projects, and it is easy to install and straightforward to work with from a design and drawing perspective, says Emil Olsson, Project Manager at Betonggruppen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The delivery included approximately 2,000 meters of fire-extinguishing grating in standard lengths, enabling efficient on-site installation. The product was specifically developed for this type of environment and was complemented with grounding attachments and inspection hatches to ensure safe access for service and maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Himmeta, the fire-extinguishing grating now contributes to a safer facility, a more resilient electricity grid in western M\u00e4lardalen, and an investment in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/en\/products\/plank-type-flooring\/fire-extinguish-gratings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fire Extinguish Grating<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Published:<\/strong>\u00a02026-06-05<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div style=\"height:0px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-12 ProductInfoBox\">\n        <div id=\"ProductCarousel-block_f939fd8300412a120d763eaf7b091981\" class=\"welandCarousel carousel slide\"\n             data-interval=\"false\" data-ride=\"carousel\">\n                                    <div class=\"carousel-inner\" style=\"\">\n                                                                                            <div class=\"carousel-item active\">\n                        <div class=\"magnifier-box c\">\n                                                        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/slackdurk-2510-09330-b1500px.jpg\" \n                               data-caption=\"Leveransen omfattade cirka 2 000 meter sl\u00e4ckdurk i standardl\u00e4ngder, vilket gjorde installationen effektiv p\u00e5 plats.\"\n                               data-photoswipe=\"photoswipe-block_f939fd8300412a120d763eaf7b091981\"\n                               class=\"lightbox-gallery\" data-width=\"1500\"\n                               data-height=\"2098\"\n                               data-fancybox=\"gallery-block_f939fd8300412a120d763eaf7b091981\">\n                                                                <div class=\"lightbox-container\">\n                                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/slackdurk-2510-09330-b1500px-768x1074.jpg\"\n                                         alt=\"Leveransen omfattade cirka 2 000 meter sl\u00e4ckdurk i standardl\u00e4ngder, vilket gjorde installationen effektiv p\u00e5 plats.\" class=\"d-block w-100\">\n                                      \n\n\n                                      \n                                    <div class=\"buttons\">\n                                        <i class=\"fal fa-search fa-2x\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/a>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As energy demand continues to grow in western M\u00e4lardalen, a new power line is taking shape.
