Electrical, HVAC, and Plumbing system or MEP systems, involve different tests to studies. These audits include studies and tests that help identify hazards, assess risks, and recommend mitigation measures. Below are the key studies and tests commonly conducted by our team in audits as well as separately in the MEP system:-
1) Thermal Imaging (Infrared Thermography) Study
* Identifies hotspots, loose connections, or overloads in electrical panels.
2) Arc Flash Hazard Analysis (for large/critical facilities)
* Determines incident energy levels.
* Recommends PPE and labeling for safety.
3) Earth Resistance Testing
Using Earth Megger (fall-of-potential method and clamp meter method).
4) Power Quality Analysis (PQA)
PQA is a crucial part of electrical safety audits and energy assessments, especially in industrial, commercial, and institutional setups. By PQA we can measure various parameters of electrical power in H.T and L.T side of the transformer. Parameters like voltage, current, active power, reactive power, power factor, transients, load unbalancing, harmonics THdi, THDv etc.
5) Voltage and Current Harmonic Measurement
Identifies harmonics using power quality analyzers.
6) Earth Fault Loop Impedance Study
Assess the effectiveness of earthing and fault clearance times.
