Spanish term or phrase: Subestación de Conexión y Medida
¡Hola!

Nuevamente les solicito su ayuda. Se trata de la descripción de un proyecto de energía solar. Dice así:

La conexión del parque se realiza a través de 2 subestaciones: una subestación de transformación (150kV/31,5kV); y una subestación de Conexión y Medida con una Línea de Alta Tensión de 150 kV y 7km, la cual conecta a la subestación Salto Grande Uruguay (SGU).

Mi intento:

The connection of the power station is achieved through two substations: a 150kV/31.5kV substation and a connection and measurement station with a 150kV high voltage line spanning 7 km and connecting this station with Salto Grande Uruguay (SGU) substation.

Como nunca vi el término "subestación de Conexión y Medida", creo que se trata más bien de un puesto, por eso lo cambié. Agradeceré cualquier crítica y comentarios.

The project consists of the installation of 35 Vestas V110-2.0 wind turbines with nominal capacity of 2.0 MW each, for a total installed capacity of 70 MW. The wind farm will be built under an operating lease agreement with the UTE. The project has a significant positive environmental impact given that it will generate electricity from a renewable resource and will result in a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The project includes the construction of a measuring and cutting station, a control center, a transformer substation, and a 150 kV transmission line of 6 km to connect the wind farm to the existing Salto-Arapey line. Also, 20 km of internal roads will be built, 7 m wide, to enable access to each of the wind turbines, to the substation, and to the control and measurement stations. The wind turbines will be connected to the substation with medium-voltage (31.5 kV) underground cables.

see pages 15 onwards about "Salto Grande" in English. I doubt it will help much.

What I would say is a "connecting and metering substation".

Reference

Reference information:
In general this circuit breaker is located at the medium voltage system inside a substation, where also the electricity meter for the settlement purposes is installed. This usually has its own voltage and current transformers.

-------------------------------------------------------
The main components for the grid connection of the WT are the transformer and the substation with the circuit breaker and the electricity meter inside it. Because of the high losses in low voltage lines, each Figure 1.1: Yearly installed capacity of wind energy in Europe and wold-wide of the turbines has its own transformer from the voltage level of the WT (400 or 690 V) to the medium voltage line. The transformer are located directly beside the WT to avoid long low-voltage cables. Only for small WTGS it is possible to connect them directly to the low voltage line of the grid without a transformer or, in a wind farm of small WT, to connect some of the small WT to one transformer. For large wind farms a separate substation for transformation from the medium voltage system to the high voltage system is necessary.
