Full Scope

WHAT'S INCLUDED IN OUR system studies SCOPE

Load Flow & Contingency Analysis

Steady-state power flow studies, N-1 and N-2 contingency analysis, voltage profile and reactive power compensation.

Stability Studies

Transient, dynamic and voltage stability analysis for generator connections, transmission upgrades and new load centres.

Power Quality Analysis

Harmonic distortion, voltage flicker, unbalance and power factor studies per IEC 61000 and IEEE 519 standards.

Short Circuit & Fault Studies

Three-phase, single-phase and double-phase fault current calculations for equipment rating and protection grading.

Protection Coordination

Grading studies for overcurrent, earth fault, differential and distance protection relays to minimise fault clearance time.

Electromagnetic Transient Studies

EMTP/PSCAD studies for switching transients, ferroresonance, TRV analysis and insulation coordination.

Our Process

FROM DATA COLLECTION TO STUDY REPORT

01

NETWORK DATA COLLECTION

Gather network topology, equipment parameters, generation dispatch profiles and load data from client and utility. Validate data quality before modelling commences.

02

NETWORK MODEL BUILD

Build validated power system model in ETAP / PowerFactory / PSS/E. Incorporate future year scenarios and planned network reinforcements agreed with client.

03

BASE CASE STUDIES

Run load flow, fault level and steady-state studies for existing and future network configurations. Document results and identify any constraint or rating issues.

04

DETAILED ANALYSIS

Perform stability, protection coordination, power quality or transient studies as required. Sensitivity cases and mitigation options evaluated and reported.

05

REPORTING & RECOMMENDATIONS

Issue final study report with methodology, results, conclusions and recommendations. Support client utility submissions and respond to technical queries.
