1. INTRODUCTION

In order to standardize the construction safety risk assessment and process control, this work
instruction is specially prepared to ensure the safety and quality of the whole construction process
and serve as the basis for the continuous improvement of the quality, environmental and
occupational safety and health management system.
The aim of this document is to list the construction phases of PV electrical equipment installation. In
order to make the construction process clear and to ensure that the work is compliance with the
project specifications and approved drawings.
1.1 Project Overview:
The Red Sea Project Plant is a luxury tourism development located in the Tabuk Province of
the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) on a site area of 28000 km2. The Project will create a
high-end tourism destination in a location that offers unrivalled marine and terrestrial
environmental attractions, most notably the Al Wajh Lagoon. It has desert continental weather
with hot summers and mild winters with very little rainfall across the year. There are some
variations in the micro climate on islands, coast, wadis and mountains. The Project requires the
development of desalination plants for the supply of potable water.
The Site is on the Tabuk province of KSA, positioned on existing highway M55, within driving
distance from Madinah. It is about 110 kilometers from the UNESCO world heritage site
Mada’in Saleh in Al-‘Ula between the towns of Um Luj and Al Wajh. The Site is a vast, 33000
km2 area of islands, lagoon, coastal plain and mountains with extremely diverse marine life and
terrestrial landforms.
The site location of Red Sea Project is shown in the next figure:

This project has 5 solar farm areas, which are located respectively, SF1 area, SF2 area, Desert
Rock, Southern Dunes, Sheybarah Island are as below figure shows
