General Evaluation and Installation Procedure
The ZPG installation process is a crucial stage in setting up the system. This process requires meticulous attention to details, following precise guidelines, and professional expertise to avoid any errors or issues on the installation and sizing of the system. The following provides our general step-by-step guide for determining the parameters before installation can begin.
The Process
Site Assessment and Power audit: This involves identifying and analyzing the power requirements and best location for the installation of the power system and lines, based on factors such as topography, surrounding infrastructure, accessibility, environmental impacts, and load demand from the manufacturing facility.
Planning and Design: After a thorough assessment, an electrical layout design is made to detail where the power station, lines, transformers (if needed), and other necessary equipment will be installed.
Securing Permits: Obtaining necessary permissions and permits from relevant local or state authorities to carry out the installation process.
Safety Assessment: Conduct a comprehensive safety risk assessment and identify measures to ensure safety during and after the installation.
Equipment Procurement: This includes procuring wires, transformers, safety equipment, and other essential equipment required for the installation process.
Ground Preparation (if installation is outside the building) Clear the installation site of any debris and ensure the ground is leveled, and ready for the construction of the system.
Line Installation: Determined by the contracted utility service
Transformer Installation: If needed, transformers are installed by the Utility Service for the manufacturing facility.
Connection to the Manufacturing Facility: Power lines are connected to the main electrical supply system of the manufacturing facility.
Testing: After the installation, testing should be done to confirm if the power transmission is functioning correctly and efficiently.
Safety Signage: After everything is set and confirmed to be in good working condition, safety signs are installed to caution and guide the facility staff.
Remote Monitoring and Maintenance Schedule: Lastly, schedule regular inspections and maintenance to ensure the installed power lines continue to operate efficiently and safely.
Employee Training: Inform and train employees at the manufacturing facility about the new power lines, their safety features, emergency protocols, etc.
