PROTECTION STUDIES

Our Protection Study Services

  • Fault Current Analysis
    Calculation of short-circuit levels (symmetrical & asymmetrical) at
    critical nodes within the network
  • Protection Device Coordination
    Time-current coordination of relays, breakers, and fuses to ensure
    selective tripping and prevent cascading outages
  • Protection Relay Settings & Review
    Verification and optimisation of relay settings across HV and LV systems
    based on load profiles and system topology
  • Review of Installed Protection Schemes
    Assessment of existing systems post-modifications, expansion, or as part
    of routine maintenance audits
  • Model-Based Simulations
    Analysis using  Power Factory, PSCAD,
    or Power CAD to simulate real-world performance and validate settings

WHY IT MATTERS

A well-executed protection study helps you:

 

  • Prevent personnel injury and equipment damage
  • Minimise unplanned outages and restoration time
  • Avoid nuisance tripping and loss of process control
  • Ensure compliance with utility requirements and Australian standards
  • Confidently commission, upgrade, or maintain your electrical network
