Line 132 Wire and Structure Replacements

Why Are We Doing This Project?

We determined after an extensive study that integration of additional clean energy into the electrical grid in the Plymouth area requires upgrades to Line 132. This project will support interconnection of new renewable resources and improve reliability.

This work is part of a larger initiative focused on electric system enhancements to maintain reliability and enable distributed energy resource (DER) facilities to safely interconnect and operate.

Where Is This Work Being Done?

Line 132 runs through Kingston, Plymouth and Plympton. It begins at Brook Street Substation, located off Brook Street in Plympton, and runs southeast for about 5 miles before it terminates at West Pond Substation, located off Federal Furnace Road in Plymouth.

Engineering is still underway to determine the full scope of work, but we anticipate that the following upgrades will be needed. 

  • Replacing approximately 5 miles of existing conductor wire on Line 132 from Brook Street Substation to West Pond Substation with new conductor wire.
  • Replacing some of the existing wood H-frame structures with new steel structures.

When Is The Work Being Done?

  • Proposed start of construction: Third quarter 2026*
  • Estimated in-service date: Third quarter 2027

*Subject to change, pending necessary approvals

About this project

  • Line voltage: 115 kilovolts (kV)
  • Length: Approximately 5 miles
