Secondary Electrical Technology

Our Services:

We are THE experts in electrical protection technology.

Protection Technology

  • Our engineers can assess and parameterize block protection for power plants >500 MW and connect them to the grid after the first start-up.
  • We regularly test 110kV busbar protection systems during ongoing operations.
  • We have hands-on testing experience with the 380 kV transmission grid, particularly in the new eastern federal states and Hamburg.
  • We offer switching capabilities up to 380kV.
  • We provide work-under-voltage training for installation systems, switchgear, and instrumentation & control systems.
  • We prepare setting sheets and perform selectivity calculations.
  • We offer 24/7 on-call troubleshooting services.
  • We have expertise in IEC 61850 and IEC 60870-5-103 system integration.
  • We test and recalibrate electro-mechanical protective devices.
