The article concerns the modernization of the main ventilators station of the „Wilson" shaft at „Wieliczka" Salt Mine. The modernization included: the station building, main ventilators, 110 kW electric motors for the operation of ventilators, 3/0.4 kV transformers, 3 kV „Wilson" switching station, 0.4 kV main switching station and communication systems to control the station. The modernization of the Wilson shaft ventilators station has provided a modern facility that improves the safety of tourist and sanatorium traffic as well as employees staying in the underground workings of the mine. Thanks to the development of modern devices, the mine meets the requirements of restrictive environmental standards in terms of the permissible noise level. As regards the modernization of the main ventilators stations, devices with Iower electricity consumption were used -which translates into limitations in the amount of electricity bills. Another aspect that reduces costs is the use of automated devices, which in the long run will completely eliminate the station of the device service.
