Design of Power Supply Systems
Design of external and internal power grids of any complexity — from calculation to project delivery on schedule.
Information About Design
Commissioning of houses and buildings is impossible without a connection to the power grid. This requires not only the appropriate equipment, but also a well-engineered external power supply design. You can order one from LK-Energy. The company's experienced staff will develop a design tailored to the specific site, taking into account all technical particulars.
Structure of a Power Supply Project and Types of Facilities
Design of power grids is carried out in order to create optimal conditions for supplying electricity to a site. The documentation specifies all the technical solutions required for this. Specialists develop:
- a description of the characteristics of the equipment needed for power supply;
- material specifications;
- diagrams of the systems to be connected to the grid.
The information for each section is developed taking into account the particulars of the premises. To organize a proper grid connection, the design stage determines the characteristics of switchgear, cables, transformers and other devices. The types of materials are also specified, with a detailed listing of their particulars and standards. A separate section of the project is devoted to a detailed description of the electrical system. It describes the load distribution and the characteristics of the devices. When the design of external power supply networks is complete, a cost estimate is drawn up at the final stage. It contains information on the cost of implementing the project — in particular, equipment, materials and works. Design of power supply systems is carried out for various categories of facilities. In particular, the service is available for infrastructure facilities. These can be highways, railway stations, airports. Specialists also produce documentation for alternative power stations (wind and solar). They know all the nuances of how such systems function, so they can develop a complete set of documents for structures of varying levels of complexity. In addition, we carry out power grid design for energy facilities, educational and medical institutions, enterprises (including industrial ones) and urban infrastructure. For each of these facilities, experts create technically sound designs that ensure the uninterrupted operation of the system.
Stages of External Power Supply Design
At the first stage, all details are discussed with the customer and terms of reference are drawn up. Next, the site is studied — its structural particulars and power supply requirements. Specialists also calculate the required load and gather the necessary data, including geological and geodetic surveys. The next stage is the development of the power supply design. Specialists create diagrams for the placement and connection of electrical equipment at the site. These describe in detail the locations for installation and cable routing. Once the documents are ready, specialists prepare a cost estimate stating the final amount. Experts then coordinate the documentation with various authorities. After that, crews proceed with installing the structures. Installation is carried out using modern equipment and in accordance with the developed diagrams. Before full commissioning, the equipment is tested. If all systems operate correctly, the system is put into operation.
Timeframes for Developing an Electrical Design
Carrying out an external power supply design requires time to study the site's baseline data, as well as to produce the documentation. Simpler projects, such as external power supply design, are completed in approximately 2 weeks. Design of external power supply networks for technically more complex structures takes up to 2 months. During this period, a complete set of documents is developed that can be used for installation.
What Determines the Cost of Developing an Electrical Design?
The cost of a project is shaped by its scope: the number of lines, voltage classes, and the complexity of the scheme. Indeed, the calculation takes into account several factors determined by the characteristics of the facility. If you decide to order a power supply design, keep in mind several aspects that affect the price:
- complexity of the power supply system;
- scope of work;
- the client's requirements and wishes;
- the need to use special equipment.
In addition, the final cost is influenced by recommendations from professional engineers and consultants, as well as logistics costs and expenses for ordering equipment. The company's experts can carry out an exact calculation. You can reach them in two ways: via the callback form on the website or by phone.
Why Order Power Supply Design from LK-Energy?
You can safely entrust the design of electrical installations to the LK-Energy team. Our designers, working in accordance with the current PUE (Electrical Installation Rules) and DBN (state building codes), will develop a well-engineered set of documents for the facility, taking into account all requirements. By working with us, you get the following benefits:
- a design compliant with current codes (PUE, DBN);
- work performed within clearly defined timeframes;
- compliance with regulations and standards in the field of power supply.
To find out more details, get a consultation, and order an electrical design, contact the company's manager. Contact details are available on the website. We will answer all your questions and help you implement a 0.4–35 kV grid connection project.
