Electrical safety is a critical concern in industrial, commercial, and utility environments. Conducting an arc flash study is one of the effective methods for mitigating electrical hazards. Nevertheless, it is not sufficient to conduct the study once. In order to maintain the continued safety, compliance, and accuracy organizations must understand how often an arc flash…
In the current performance based environments, evidence is used to be fair and precise in organizations unlike assumptions. This is where reliability studies are necessary. They are concerned with the identification of whether processes, systems or measurements generate stable and repeatable results with time. The centre of these studies is comprised of three essential elements…
In any organization, problems are inevitable. Errors happen, processes fail, and outcomes don’t always meet expectations. The real challenge is not fixing the surface issue but understanding why it happened in the first place. This is where root cause studies play a critical role. They help individuals and organizations move beyond quick fixes and focus on long-term,…
A single failure of a large scale is rarely the cause of blackouts. Most of them start with the small electrical fault that propagates due to the nonfunctioning of the systems of protection. Protection relay coordination study is a key factor to preventing such a chain reaction by ensuring that only the faulty section of the…
Earthing systems are very important in electrical safety as it is the controlled direction through which fault currents can be conducted into the ground. One such misconception is that the low earthing resistance value achieved ensures safety in the instance. The fact is that, the safety relies on the ability of the earthing system to…
Reliability plays a critical role in the smooth functioning of industrial plants, where equipment efficiency directly impacts productivity, safety, and operational costs. To ensure continuous performance, industries rely on reliability studies, which help identify weaknesses, predict failures, and optimize maintenance strategies. These studies provide a data-driven approach to enhancing equipment reliability and ensuring long-term operational…
To come up with a safe and reliable system of electricity; it goes well beyond choosing cables and equipment. One of the most critical issues of electrical protection is making sure that faults isolation is fast and effective. This is where Protection Relay Coordination Study becomes very essential. It makes sure that protective devices are…
In any electrical system, selecting the right cable is crucial for ensuring safety, efficiency, and long-term performance. While most people focus on the physical durability of the cable, two technical factors play an equally significant role: voltage drop and cable current carrying capacity. These parameters determine how effectively electricity flows through a cable and whether it…
With the ageing of industries, most of the factories still use the same electrical system as it was set up decades ago. These systems have a lot of old wiring, old control panels and old technology equipment that was never originally designed to meet the current load demands. It is at this point that arc…
The Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) has taken a centre stage in the safety preparation and risk management in the industries where a single failure can cause extreme effects. Safety concerns apply to high-risk industries like aviation, nuclear energy, defense and oil and gas. These standards necessitate organisations to determine these areas of failure, their likelihood, and…
