Distribution System and Automation Projects

S&C’s Power Systems Services can help in the engineering analysis, design, and automation of overhead and underground distribution systems. A broad range of services can be provided. We can fully analyze existing system conditions through short-circuit current studies, overcurrent protective device coordination studies, load-flow analyses, distribution-system loss evaluations, and reliability analyses. We can offer a design review, which may result in recommendations for circuit reconfiguration, installation of capacitor banks, or modification of existing practices. And we can work with S&C’s Automation Systems Division and other equipment suppliers to implement state-of-the-art distribution automation solutions.

Additional services include communication site surveys; project engineering, including equipment layouts, schematics, and wiring diagrams; and systems integration testing to verify that the final design will operate as intended.

Power Systems Services can provide a total solution for distribution automation projects — from system conceptualization and design . . . to engineering analysis . . . to equipment installation and testing . . . to training . . . to system maintenance and monitoring.
