Generator Electrical and Controls Service

Generator Electrical Commissioning and Testing

Commissioning verifies that generator controls, protection, switchgear interfaces and operating sequences perform as designed before the system is relied upon.

Service scope

Electrical and controls expertise for generator reliability

Commissioning verifies that generator controls, protection, switchgear interfaces and operating sequences perform as designed before the system is relied upon.

Our specialist scope: generator electrical systems, controls, protection, wiring, switchgear interfaces, communications and SCADA. Where a fault is mechanical, fuel-system or engine-internal, we can identify the control-system evidence and coordinate the electrical interface with the appropriate mechanical specialist.

What we can do

  • Pre-start electrical and control-system checks
  • Alarm, shutdown and protection testing
  • ATS, breaker and remote-start sequence tests
  • Load-bank support and signal verification
  • Synchronising and load-sharing tests for parallel systems

What you receive

  • A documented functional test process
  • Confirmed operation of safety and shutdown functions
  • Verified automatic and manual sequences
  • A clear defects and completion list

Useful information for your enquiry

  • Generator make, model and rating
  • Controller, AVR or protection make and model
  • Fault codes, alarm history or operating symptoms
  • Photos of the generator, control panel and switchboard
  • Site location, access constraints and operational priority

Frequently asked questions

Planning your service

What should I provide before a service visit?

Send the site location, generator rating, controller or AVR model, fault codes, photos and a description of the required operating outcome.

Is this service limited to emergency generators?

No. The electrical and controls scope can apply to standby, prime-power and parallel diesel generator installations, subject to equipment and site requirements.
