Protection & controls
Our protection engineers bring years of experience and a solid track record needed for the proper design and application of AS, IEC, and IEEE standards to high voltage substation asset protection.
In addition to relays that respond to short circuits, low voltage circuit breakers, differential, directional, power, under voltage, out-of-step, and other special protective schemes are often required in power generation applications. Our protection engineers offer a comprehensive protection study that includes detailed protection philosophy, tables listing recommended protection settings, and a discussion of potential limitations.
Our protection engineers are also experienced in SCADA systems across multiple operational environments. They fully understand primary energy assets, protection automation, and control systems, supporting communications and security infrastructure. Integral Power can also design, integrate, implement, test, and commission SCADA systems to meet your requirements.
DETAIL & Controls
Accurate relay logic and settings are crucial aspects of the design process. The correct logic settings significantly impact your relays’ speed, selectivity, and reliability. They ensure that the correct relay elements are used in the trip scheme and that the relay control logic produces the intended outcomes.
At Integral Power, we provide services encompassing the design and implementation of logic settings. Our team of experts ensures that the relay logic and settings are precise and optimized to meet your specific needs. This helps to increase the reliability and efficiency of your system, reducing the chances of malfunctions or failures.
Installing a newly designed relay protection system can significantly improve the speed and accuracy of the process. At Integral Power, we offer comprehensive services that include the removal of your existing electromechanical relays, controls, and associated wiring.
Our team of experts will then install the new protection panel assemblies and terminate the new wiring harness to the existing terminal blocks. If necessary, we will also install additional control wiring. We thoroughly verify all factory drawings to ensure that the documentation reflects the as-installed design.
With our installation services, you can trust that your relay protection system will be efficiently and accurately installed, reducing the risk of malfunctions and ensuring that your system operates optimally.
Commissioning and startup services are essential to operate newly installed relays properly. At Integral Power, we offer comprehensive services that include uploading settings into the relays, conducting tests to verify calibration and operation, and performing trip check procedures to ensure proper sensing and satisfactory operation of all protective relay devices.
Additionally, we conduct current and voltage secondary injection tests to verify the correct annunciation and operation of associated devices. Our team of experts uses the latest technology and techniques to ensure that your relays function optimally and that your system is protected against potential faults.
With our commissioning and startup services, you can have confidence in the reliability and performance of your overall protection system.
