Services
Electrical AC and DC Schematics
We create detailed AC/DC schematics for power systems, ensuring precise representation of electrical components and connections. Our diagrams meet industry standards for clarity and technical accuracy. These schematics form the foundation for reliable system design and maintenance across utility projects.
Relay Protection Engineering
Our relay protection services include SEL/Siemens/Areva configuration, coordination studies, and testing using Doble/Omicron equipment. We ensure system reliability through breaker failure protection, distance protection, and IEC 61850 protocol implementation for modern substations.
Substation Modernization
We upgrade substation infrastructure with advanced relaying, communication systems, and control house designs. Our solutions incorporate battery sizing, AC/DC systems, and synchrophasor protocols to enhance grid reliability and efficiency for aging infrastructure.
Power System Analysis
We conduct comprehensive power flow, short circuit, and arc flash studies to optimize system performance. Our analysis informs breaker settings, equipment specifications, and safety protocols for transmission and distribution networks.
CAD Conversion Services
We convert legacy non-CAD drawings to digital formats using AutoCAD Electrical and MicroStation. This service preserves critical infrastructure data while enabling modern design workflows and documentation standards for utility systems.
