Several records have been broken by successive phases of the project, including the largest (and last) mercury-arc valves, the highest DC transmission voltage and the first use of water-cooled thyristor valves in HVDC. The system transfers electric power generated by several hydroelectric power stations along the Nelson River in Northern Manitoba across the wilderness to the populated areas in the south. Dorsey Converter Station near Rosser, Manitoba – August, 2005 It includes two rectifier stations, Radisson Converter Station near Gillam at and Henday Converter Station near Sundance at, one inverter station, Dorsey Converter Station at Rosser located north west of Winnipeg at), and two sets of high-voltage direct current transmission lines. Each HVDC transmission line has two parallel overhead conductors to carry the positive and negative feeds. There are no intermediate switching stations or taps. Both bipolar systems have extensive ground return electrodes to allow use in monopolar mode.
