Medium voltage (MV) and low voltage (LV) electrical installations age over time and must be replaced before they become faulty and cause major breakdown.

MV installations and LV installations, also known as "internal services" (IS), must ensure power to the facilities they supply. There are several possible options to supply power: one coming from two separate networks with automatic switching; the installation of an auxiliary group or emergency generator; securing a direct current power supply using batteries with an uninterrupted power supply.

Methodology

  • definition of the scope of work and suppliers
  • dimensions of the installations
  • development of screed and detail network schemes if required (Eplan – Elcad)
  • monitoring the manufacture of MV or LV cabinets and the tests in the workshop
  • installation of LV or MV cabinets and commissioning of installations
  • Preparation of a final documentation containing the test protocols, the diagrams, the operating and maintenance instructions for the installation
