Commissioning Services
Commissioning of electrical power systems, including verifying conformity to design drawings, set-up and calibration of all protective devices and testing before initial energizing, is essential to the start up of any electrical system to prevent premature failures and ensure the long-term performance.
We have a strong team of site commissioning engineers with considerable power engineering experience in the UK and world-wide, including offshore, and with a wide range of plant and equipment of many different manufacturers.
Commissioning of Protection Schemes on all power systems from EHV mesh transmission stations to LV radial distributors, generation and industrial and commercial LV distribution.
