SYSTEM PROTECTION ENGINEERING
Ulteig’s System Protection Engineering services encompass the full range of asset protection, from generation to distribution across greenfield and brownfield projects. Our tailored solutions are designed to meet the unique needs and standards of each client. From large utilities to owner-operators, we deliver reliability, security, dependability and compliance, ensuring your systems are robust and future-proof. Our services include the development of relay settings and coordination studies, third-party/OEM setting reviews, event analysis and troubleshooting, verification of NERC PRC compliance and relay testing and commissioning support.
Our team has extensive experience in performing relay and coordination studies, which include line, bus, breaker, shunt reactor, shunt capacitor, transformer, feeder, hydroelectric generation and motor protection. We strive to understand each client’s protection philosophy and develop relay settings and reports consistent with their practices. If you don’t have a standard, we have the expertise to develop comprehensive protection solutions to protect your assets by balancing security, dependability, cost and safety.
