Because the first installation did not meet increasing requirements, it was replaced in 1975 – 1986 by a new HVDC system with a maximum transmission rating of 2, 000 MW between France and Great Britain, for which two new converter stations were built in Sellindge ( UK ) and in Bonningues-lès-Calais ( Les Mandarins station ), near Calais, ( France ).
The HVDC link was first commissioned in April 1965 to primarily transport electricity from the generation-rich South Island to the more populous North Island.
The inter-island transmission system was designed as an HVDC system, despite the cost of the conversion from AC to DC and back, to suit the requirements of a long transmission line and a sea crossing. The link crosses Cook Strait, between the two islands, using submarine power cables laid along the sea floor.
This demonstrated that a long distance, high power HVDC transmission scheme was feasible in principle.
The HVDC inter-island link was designed and built between 1961 and 1965 for the New Zealand Electricity Department.
When it was completed, the New Zealand HVDC link was the world's longest HVDC transmission scheme, with the highest power rating, and the largest undersea power cables.
Until it was upgraded in 1993, the HVDC Inter-Island link had normal operating voltages of plus and minus 250 kilovolts, and a maximum power transmission capacity of about 600 megawatts ( MW ).
The HVDC link was originally designed to transfer power northwards from Benmore to Haywards.
After the retirement of the last of the original submarine cables, the overall HVDC link transfer capability was restricted further to 1040 MW due to the single Pole 2 cable across Cook Strait.
The Inter Island link at the time was the last HVDC system in the world with mercury arc valve converters in operational service.
Pole 2 was commissioned in 1992 with HVDC control systems utilising late 1980s technology.
