Short Circuit, Device Coordination and Arc Flash Studies
To TEG, the safety of personnel and the reliability and performance of equipment are priorities.
TEG creates a safe environment for you and your facility by performing these studies:
Short-circuit study will identify:
- Available fault current levels at various locations in the facility
- Whether the system and equipment can withstand the available fault current
- The ratings of equipment for future expansions, & improve the reliability of the system
Protective device coordination study will:
- Prevent extensive facility outages and safety hazards to personnel and equipment
- Enable protective devices to trip a desired sequence during a fault condition
- Isolate the problem area & ensure that all electrically powered equipment is adequately protected
Arc flash hazard study will:
- Determine the risk of personnel injury as a result of exposure to incident energy released during an arc flash event
- Provide recommendations for appropriate arc flash hazard protection
- Inform personnel of existing arc flash hazards & comply with OHSA, NEC and NFPA 70E requirements
