It is well established that aggregate surfaces are the norm for pavements surrounding electrical equipment in substations. Open-graded base course (OGBC) offers low conductivity for step-and-touch conditions for workers, protecting them from ground grid related dangers. The high permeability of OGBC aggregate eliminates arcing between high voltage lines and the paving surface - or worse between the facility and the workers.
