Extensions & Retrofits

Extending equipment life by adding ways, metering, protection and control

Overview

Extensions & Retrofits

Extensions and retrofits add outgoing ways, metering, surge protection, power quality equipment or control upgrades to a board that is otherwise sound.

Fault level, busbar capacity, temperature rise and forms of separation are reviewed first, so the extension is engineered rather than squeezed in.

What We Cover

  • Fault level, busbar and heat rise verification before design
  • Additional outgoing ways, sections and cable entry provisions
  • Retrofit of metering, surge protection and power quality equipment
  • Site installation, testing and re-commissioning

What You Receive

  • General arrangement and schematic drawings for approval
  • Updated schedules, labelling and as-built documentation
  • Test results for the extended or retrofitted sections
  • Shutdown method statement and staged switching plan
What We Need In The Brief

Existing board photographs, rating plate and internal layout
New load requirement and preferred device range
Available shutdown window and phasing constraints
Metering or monitoring requirements to be added
No spare ways left for a new machine, tenancy or feeder
Metering needed for tenant recharge or energy reporting
