Testing & Commissioning
A comprehensive process to verify and document that an electrical system is safe, meets its design specifications, and operates correctly and efficiently.
Ensuring Safety and Performance
Testing and commissioning is a critical final step in any electrical project. Testing involves a series of pass/fail checks on individual components, while commissioning is the broader, end-to-end process of integrating these systems to prove their overall functionality and performance before the project is handed over.
Testing
Pass/fail checks on individual components like circuit breakers, transformers, and cables to ensure they meet specifications.
Measures the quality of insulation on wires and equipment to prevent short circuits.
Ensures that electrical circuits are complete and without breaks.
Verifying that switches, outlets, and equipment power on and off as expected.
Commissioning
The broader, end-to-end process of integrating all tested components to work together as a complete system.
Documenting that the entire system operates according to the design intent and performance criteria.
Applying realistic operational loads to ensure the system can handle them safely and efficiently.
Providing the client with complete documentation, training, and formal sign-off, confirming the system is ready for use.
