Electrical system studies, utility studies

To ensure optimal system performance, personnel safety and compliance requirements, all changes to a utility system should begin with proper investigation and analysis. Eaton’s range of advanced electrical system studies offer utilities the most focused and systematic approach to system changes, enabling you to enhance power system performance and identify potential problems before they impact your system.
  • Utility studies include system-specific evaluation of performance and improvement recommendations by professional, experienced engineers
  • Options include protection analysis and review of relay configuration files, system impact/transient stability study, NERC compliance, arc flash study, load flow analysis, insulation coordination and ground grid analysis
  • System studies can help utilities increase generation capacity, plan for grid modernization, ensure incorporation of alternative energy resources, protect personnel and increase efficiency
  • Eaton’s engineering services team can also review existing safety plans, electrical safety audits and electrical safety training program to ensure your resources are protected
