protection and control
 

Commissioning, maintaining and repairing protection and control schemes to exacting standards

High voltage grid substation protection, intricate generator protection and feeder protection at a distribution substation

Our engineers are highly equipped to tackle all protection systems, from simple electro-mechanical relays to the latest, increasingly complex, numerical relays

Effective testing on manufacturer’s equipment, including ALSTOM (GEC), English Electric, Reyrolle, Metropolitan Vickers, Siemens and ABB

Both new and old installations can have an effective maintenance programme applied to them

New installations or modification of existing sites, including upgrading, commissioning or inspection of sophisticated control schemes

‘Turnkey packages’ from the planning stage through to installation and full commissioning tests, handing over schemes fit and ready for service

Specific testing and commissioning

Generator, transformer, motor, feeder and switchgear protection schemes

 

Specific testing and commissioning
Directional overcurrent and directional earth fault relays
Auto reclosing schemes – from the very complex to simple schemes
Loss of supply – auto closing
Intertripping G59 – generator protection testing over and under voltage, over and under frequency, loss of mains etc

Generator protection schemes
Pole slipping neutral voltage displacement
Overcurrent (or voltage dependant) earth fault
Reverse power loss of excitation
Negative phase sequence, rotor earth fault, differential etc
Over and under frequency
REG 216 and 316

Transformer protection schemes
