Electrical infrastructure drawings provide a clear representation of your electrical assets, protective devices, and conductors. Our engineers will work with you to create comprehensive single line diagrams that show the flow of power through your system, helping you to identify assets and troubleshoot issues quickly and effectively. The single line diagram can be one of the most important safety documents that your facility can have allowing your workers to quickly de-energize the correct devices in the event of an emergency.
Electrical Installation Design
Our electrical installation design services ensure that your electrical systems are safe, reliable, and meet the performance requirements of your application. Our engineers can help you to design and build systems that are tailored to your specific needs. Trust us to deliver electrical systems that are efficient, effective, and designed to last.
Ground grid Analysis and Testing
A grounding system is a critical component of any electrical system, providing a safe path for fault currents to flow to earth. Ground grid analysis involves evaluating the effectiveness of the grounding system and identifying potential issues such as poor soil resistivity or inadequate grounding conductor sizing. Engineers use a combination of modeling and testing techniques to evaluate the performance of the grounding system and develop strategies to improve its effectiveness.
Power Studies & Solutions
If you are experiencing lags or surges in power, our engineers will analyze and measure the characteristics of your power supply, identifying potential issues and developing strategies to improve power quality. These studies can help to save you money and put more room in your budget for bigger projects. We have the expertise and experience to optimize your power supply and keep your systems running smoothly.
Transient Voltage Studies
Protect your electrical systems from voltage surges with a Transient Voltage Analysis. Transient voltage events can result in voltage surges, spikes, and oscillations, which can lead to equipment damage, power outages, and even safety hazards. By conducting transient voltage analysis, our engineers can assess their potential impact and develop strategies to mitigate their effects. With a Transient Voltage Analysis, you can rest assured that your systems will operate safely and reliably, even in the face of voltage spikes and surges.
Transient Recovery Voltage Analysis
Transient Recovery Voltage Analysis evaluates power system components for their ability to withstand high-voltage transients during fault conditions. We analyze voltage and current characteristics during and after a fault to determine the transient recovery voltage’s duration and magnitude. Our results help design protective equipment to prevent damage to your power system components.
Harmonics Analysis Studies
Harmonic distortion can harm power systems and damage equipment. Our Harmonic Studies help identify issues and develop solutions to improve power quality and system reliability. Our engineers use sophisticated simulation software to assess your system’s performance under different harmonic conditions. We will verify the results with the IEEE 519 to ensure compliance. Trust us to optimize your power supply and keep your systems running efficiently.
Load Flow Studies
Load flow studies are essential to ensuring that power systems operate reliably and efficiently. Our engineers use load flow studies to evaluate the performance and efficiency of the system, assess its ability to meet demand, and identify potential issues such as voltage drops, overloads, and unbalanced loads. We then develop strategies to optimize your system, including the installation of new equipment, the reconfiguration of existing systems, and optimize the use of resources.
Ground Potential Rise Studies
Ground Potential Rise (GPR) studies involve the analysis of the potential rise in ground voltage levels that can occur during faults in electrical systems. Faults can cause a significant increase in ground voltage, which can lead to safety hazards such as electric shock and damage to equipment. Our engineers will use GPR studies to evaluate the effectiveness of the grounding system, identify potential issues, and necessary recommendations for improvement.
Step and Touch Potential Analysis
Step and Touch Potential Analysis evaluates the potential hazard to humans that may occur in the surrounding area of grounded electrical systems. This analysis involves simulating or measuring the electrical potential and current in the soil to determine the voltage levels that a person may be exposed to in the event of a fault or abnormal condition. The results of the analysis are used to develop strategies to protect personnel and equipment from electrical hazards.
