We offer you a group of engineers and technicians trained to provide engineering services that benefit your company and specifically, your electrical system.

Electric Arc Flash Study

We offer you a group of trained engineers to provide you with engineering services that will benefit your company, and specifically, your electrical system.

In an electrical system, no matter its size, there are possibilities of failures occurring at any time, even more so if it is not properly maintained. These faults, depending on their nature, can cause electrical arcing. Electric arcs are discharges of electric current through the air, which reach very high temperatures, even forming plasma.

In order to take the necessary preventive measures, it is important to quantify the incident energy at a point in the event of a fault, in order to determine the type of protective equipment and the necessary safety measures to protect the integrity of people, which is precisely what an electric arc study aims to do.


Short Circuit Study

We offer you a group of engineers and technicians trained to provide engineering services that benefit your company and specifically, your electrical system.

 

 

Short-circuit studies indicate the intensity of possible faults that may occur throughout the life of our system, so that we can subsequently quantify the damage they may cause and take the necessary safety measures.


Protection Coordination Study

We offer you a group of engineers and technicians trained to provide engineering services that benefit your company and specifically, your electrical system.

 

 

The safety of an electrical system is given by a set of elements that are placed to fulfill a specific function within the chain.

Among this equipment are the protection devices, which are responsible for interrupting the transfer of energy in the case of an event.

These protection devices must be sized/adjusted to operate only when necessary, isolating only the faulted zone (selectivity), in the shortest possible time (speed), ensuring the integrity of people and equipment (safety) and having certainty that when they act they do it well (reliability).

The protection coordination study ensures compliance with all these aspects.


Electrical Design

We offer you a group of engineers and technicians trained to provide engineering services that benefit your company and specifically, your electrical system.

 

 

For any type of new building or remodeling, it is always necessary to have electrical designs.

Electrical designs should not only look for elements that support the different activities, but should also ensure that there is a balance between performance and cost, i.e., find the ideal point of the different elements without incurring risks or cost overruns.

Grounding System Design

We offer you a group of engineers and technicians trained to provide engineering services that benefit your company and specifically, your electrical system.

 

 

Grounding systems are the basis of any electrical system, not only because they are hidden underground, but also because of their importance in their normal operation.

The proper design of a grounding system aims to reduce the risks associated with a fault, either by facilitating early detection of the problem, dissipating the fault energy, and ensuring proper system operation.

Design of Atmospheric Discharge Protection Systems (lightning arresters)

We offer you a group of engineers and technicians trained to provide engineering services that benefit your company and specifically, your electrical system.

Due to the high incidence of lightning strikes in our region, it is important to install lightning protection systems to prevent the incidence of these natural phenomena from posing a danger to people, electrical systems and property.

 

 

An adequate shock protection system prevents this from happening and ensures that the atmospheric discharge is conducted to ground by a safe means and that the secondary effects that could occur will be reduced.

Preparation of Single-line Diagrams

We offer you a group of engineers and technicians trained to provide engineering services that benefit your company and specifically, your electrical system.

 

 

Every electrical system must have a diagram that indicates from where and to where each of its components is directed, this in order to facilitate the identification and operation of the same, in addition to the fact that a single-line diagram is the basis for further engineering studies.
