Electrical Switchgear Services Provided by Carolina Precision Switchgear
As a manager of technical services, or a maintenance supervisor, you may find yourself dealing with your company’s power plant. In this day of budget cutbacks, loss of revenue and the state of our economy, you have to make decisions that affect your bottom line. Should you buy new equipment or should you continue to repair and refurbish existing plant? It’s a Buy vs. Repair question.
At Carolina Precision Switchgear, we offer help to managers faced with these types of decisions. You must know when to squeeze out extra production or invest in new. We can help. In some cases, we actually service electrical switchgear equipment more frequently than recommended to keep it operating in peak condition.
One of the best times to determine these factors is before an annual or semiannual plant shutdown. Proper planning gives maintenance staff time to determine if switchgear equipment and other plant facilities are upgraded or equipment is overhauled during these planned shutdowns. The key word is “planned,” especially when it comes to the electrical distribution system. A maintenance shutdown is an excellent time to consider what other work needs to be done on the distribution system, avoiding the necessity of performing energized work during the rest of the year, and avoiding the risk of an arc flash accident. Obviously, working on de-energized equipment is preferable to working on energized equipment.
At CP Switchgear, we offer consulting services for low & medium voltage switchgear, primary injection relay testing and transformer testing. Do not face the issues alone when faced with challenges of replacement or repair. We can help you make decisions concerning the age of your electrical system and its components, safety, cost, reliability and the feasibility of modernization. With over 100 years of combined service in the power industry we are the ones to call to make your job easier.
