SERVICES
To assist your company in becoming more energy efficient through the reduction of electrical waste and improvement of operating equipment, we provide the following services to help you get started.
FACILITY SURVEY
A Facility Survey is required in the design of every UtiliGuard® Power Quality System. Starting at the entrance location of electric service, we survey every distribution panel, sub panel, disconnect, branch source and large piece of equipment throughout your facility. We evaluate maximum amperage of each panel, type of service, and look for consistencies and anomalies within the electrical system itself. A complete survey, along with review of your electric utility data, allows us to provide you details of the UtiliGuard® System which is engineered specifically for your business. Included in this review are energy savings estimates, project costs, return on investment analysis and more.
POWER QUALITY ANALYSIS
A Power Quality Analysis is performed to evaluate the efficiency of motors and equipment within your business and identify specific areas where energy waste reduction is warranted. We provide an in depth overview to assist you in these decisions. Our reports include a breakdown of data detailing current power factor and a variety of measurements which are used to estimate monthly operating costs as well as savings forecasts with power factor correction implemented. This demand and consumption data allows you to make an informed decision on which electrical cost centers should have power factor correction applied to enhance operational efficiency, reduce waste and yield financial benefits to your bottom line.
GROUNDING IMPROVEMENT
Ground resistance on your electrical distribution line has negative consequences to power quality within your facility. At Power Efficiency Systems, we assess current grounding conditions, collect earth resistance measurements, and determine the best approach toward installing a low resistance, earth grounding system for your facility. The National Electrical Code (Section 250.56) requires resistance to ground to be 25 ohms or less. With a copper electrode system, we surpass minimum standards and will achieve a 10 ohm or better resistance upon completion. This system will improve your power quality resulting in an electrical environment where heat can dissipate and equipment, in turn, will operate more efficiently. Preventive maintenance grounding audits are also available.
