Signal Lighting and Electric Engineering
(ESTOP)

ESTOP is a structural subdivision of the airport providing lighting engineering as well as wide range of voltages from centralized supply of electric power.

ESTOP is subdivided into: industrial center STOP (provision of lighting engineering for aircrafts) and industrial center ETOP (provision of electric engineering for flights).

In 1998 the Almaty International Airport constructed a new signal light system of ABB created for air control and landing of aircrafts. The system ensures landing, taxiing and flying for meteorological minimum category II - runway 2320, for meteorological minimum Category I – runway 520.

Signal Light System for flying, landing and taxiing of an aircraft as well as the system for provision of electric power of the airport and its points fully corresponds to all the requirements and norms of ICAO.

Additional services provided by ESTOP:

• Provision of electric power for indirect consumers
• Technical consultations
• Laboratory services for electric engineering
• Troubleshooting for damages in cables
• Measurement of wire and cable resistance
• Testing of insulation of distribution mechanisms and electric panels
• Testing of safety means and metal assembling tools
• Testing of transformer stations
• Testing of transformer oil
• Measurement of resistance of earth equipment
  Measurement of metal connection between earth equipment and earthed elements
• Measurement of resistance of loop phase zero
