PROTECTION COORDINATiON AND ARC FLASH STUDIES

ADM undertakes these studies to safeguard electrical equipment and human life during fault conditions and coordinate rapid clearance of faults, preventing touch-step potentials on equipment from reaching levels which could endanger life.

ADM’s methodical application of protection philosophies ensure that protection devices detect, locate and initiate the removal of the faulted equipment from the power network, in the shortest desirable time. The studies include an arc flash analysis of the medium voltage installation to determent the safety gear to be used by the operators of the electrical plant.

All studies incorporate a DIgSILENT simulation model together with a detailed report, enabling ADM to accurately communicate our findings and recommendations to clients.
