SUBJECT Rajhenburg Caloric Poorer Plant
lo The caloric power plant at Rajhenburg near Krako is the :host modern steam
oporatod plant in Slovenia, The foundations were laid s:sortly before the
last war and the plant was completed in 1943. The plant is 1,400 meters
northeast of Rnjhenburg railway station. The main building'is 60 x 20
meters and is built of reinforced concrete with a g alvan'Lzed iron roof,
It contains an engine room, a boiler room, a transformwr station, a switch-
ing station, and administration offices. Coal, which is obtained from the
Rajhenburg mine, is transported on a conveyor belt from the wooden coal
tower to the main building and thence to the boilers., FrGquent breakdowns
in the piping of the boiler system hampered operations to a considerable
extent during 19480 A short track links the plant with the `.laienburg
mine track, which runs from the Rajhenburg railway st:?tion to the market
town of Senovo.
20 The plant employs 70 workers and has en. output of 12,000 Kva, At present
only one turbo-aggregate is working, but the planned installation of a
second will increase the plant's output to.24,000 Kva. All turbines and
switching installations are of a recent Siemens make. In the fall of 1946,
Brown-Boveri of Baden, Switzerland, supplied a now transformer which had
been ur1ered during the war. A 110 Kv line was put into operation in 1946
and 1947, after the installation of a new open-air transformer station with
a 10-110 Kv transformer of 20,000 Kva capacity.
3. The power plant supplied electricity for both.the Raihenbura mine and the
immediate area, In addition, 110 Kv lines connect the plant -with: Zagreb
and with the transformer station at Lasko which, in turn, is the connecting
link with the electric power network of the whole of Slovenia.
4. Anton Marinko, managing director of the plant, is an electrical engineer
