Acceptance Testing

Before new transformers, breakers, switchgear, or relays go into service, they need a documented round of acceptance tests. We run a full acceptance test suite on substation equipment so utilities, EPCs, and plant engineers have a baseline record of every asset on day one.

What we test
  • Insulation resistance and polarization indexIEEE 43
  • Power factor / dissipation factor (Doble)IEEE C57.152 — 7.2
  • Turns ratio and winding resistanceIEEE C57.152
  • Contact resistance (micro-ohm) on bus and breakersIEEE C37.10
  • Primary and secondary injection of relay schemesANSI/IEEE C37.103
  • Functional trip and operational checks
  • DC battery and charger commissioningIEEE 450 / 1188
Standards we follow

IEEE C57.152 · IEEE C37.09 · IEEE C37.10 · IEEE C37.103 · IEEE 43 · IEEE 450 · IEEE 1188 · NFPA 70E

Apparatus covered

Transformers (pad-mount through HV substation), oil and vacuum circuit breakers (15 kV — 230 kV), switchgear, protective relays, station batteries.

Reports you get

Every visit ends with a documented report: raw test data, calibrated instrument records, anomaly findings with severity ranking, photos, and a clear recommended-action list. Trends are tracked across visits.
