The subsea and onshore cable installation campaign was completed in 1986 and the IFA1 interconnector was commissioned that year. The completed system comprised the subsea section and the landside cable runs connecting the UK landing near Folkestone to Sellindge converter station and the French landing near Calais to Les Mandarins converter station, enabling bi-directional HVDC operation at 2,000 MW.
