Rosselle Street

Beginning in late Fall 2015, JEA began rebuilding and upgrading the Rosselle Street substation located at 2640 Rosselle Street. This is one of two electrical substations (Herschel Street substation) being rebuilt in the Riverside area.

The existing electrical equipment for this existing substation was installed in 1959 and is reaching the end of its service life. JEA has determined that this substation needs to rebuilt and upgraded to comply with current codes and industry standards. When completed, this new substation will improve electric service reliability to the area.

Construction will occur within JEA’s property located at 2640 Rosselle Street where JEA will be replacing the transformer and switchgear units currently situated inside the existing fence line. Some clearing of trees and bushes on the substation property will be required to be removed prior to the substation construction starts. The contractor will then remove the old equipment and replace it with upgraded transformer and switchgear units which will be situated inside the fence line.
