Power & Energy
Generation, transmission and renewables quality and commissioning.
Quality assurance for power & energy projects
Generation, transmission and renewables projects are judged on one date: energisation. Quality work in this sector is about protecting that date — verifying factory acceptance before shipment, controlling site installation of equipment that arrives commissioning-critical, and keeping the commissioning record clean enough that the utility connection agreement isn't held up.
Where power & energy quality typically fails
Transformers, turbines and switchgear have 40–80 week lead times; a FAT failure discovered at site is effectively unrecoverable. We witness FAT at the OEM works, verify routine and type test certificates against the datasheet, and confirm preservation and shipping condition before release.
Most rework on power projects sits at handover between disciplines — grouting tolerance, cable routing clashes, earthing continuity. We set discipline hold points at those interfaces so each trade signs off a verified state before the next starts.
Protection settings, relay coordination and functional tests need auditable records for the connection agreement. We structure the commissioning dossier around the utility's acceptance criteria from day one.
What we deliver on power & energy assignments
- FAT and SAT witness reports with test data verification
- Equipment preservation and storage inspection records
- Discipline interface hold-point matrices
- Cable, earthing and protection installation checklists
- Commissioning and energisation turnover dossiers
