Service

Integrating, esting,t and ensuring the operability of substation equipment

To help clients maintain focus on their core business, Engetecnica makes its expertise available for managing undertakings dedicated to the supply of electric power.

Thanks to its organizational structure and multidisciplinary professionals, Engetecnica has the capacity to carry out management and integration of projects such as the complete construction of power substations, electrical power systems and expansion/adaptation of existing systems.

How We Do It

Commissioning and Integration Process

Learn about Engetecnica Service’s working process

In this phase, using state-of-the-art equipment, we perform a set of tests according to national and international standards, ensuring the integrity and good performance of the equipment over time.

In this phase, all the electrical circuits of command, signaling, interlocking, and tripping are verified

In this phase, the parameterization of the relays is verified, according to the selectivity study provided for the undertaking.

In this phase, the integrated tests are performed, checking the facilities according to the functional and logical electrical projects, interlocking, automation, local control and telecommand, checking the voltage and current circuits.

With the commissioning approved, our team accompanies the energization of the undertaking, ensuring the installation’s performance.
