DESCRIPTION OF THE WATER INTAKE
This is a flow diversion type of a plant. The water intake is located at the mouth of the streams Trudanj and Trševina, at the height of 740 masl, and the operator is located at the height of 629 masl. The water intake is done at the bottom, i.e. by the Tyrolean type of water-intake with a settling-tank. After settling, the water sinks to the surge tank via a derivation reinforced concrete channel of the length of 1536 m. The water is then taken from the surge tank to the powerhouse, via a penstock of the length of 290 m and a diameter of 700 m.
