-Basic 69 kV infrastructure in main bus plus transfer configuration.
-One 230 kV diameter in switch and half configuration.
-Half-diameter 230 kV in breaker and half configuration.
-Two 69 kV line entry connection fields in main bus plus transfer configuration.
-One coupling field in 69 kV main bus plus transfer configuration.
Single-phase 230/69 kV, 150+50 MVA transformer bank.
-Ancillary services r Protection, control and measurement equipment.

According to the EIA, about $14.7 million will be invested in this project.

CentralAmericaData has information on construction projects planned in all Central American countries, with details such as estimated investment, project timing and phases, supplies and equipment that will be required during and after construction, water treatment, parking structure, among others.
