Coordination studies are conducted to minimize the extent and duration of electrical service interruptions caused by equipment failures, human error, or other events that result in outages within any part of the electrical system, or the system as a whole. A well-coordinated system not only reduces service interruptions, but also helps prevent injuries to personnel, and limits damage to equipment and system components.

maximize safety reliability & minimize downtime

Coordination in electrical systems means ensuring that protective devices like circuit breakers and fuses work together to isolate problems, such as faults or overloads, while keeping the rest of the system running. Without proper coordination, a minor fault in an electrical system can cause an entire facility shutdown, leading to costly downtime and potential safety risks.

benefits of a coordination study

• Improved System Reliability – Minimize unnecessary tripping and prevent cascading failures.

• Enhanced Safety – Ensure protective devices operate as intended to safeguard personnel and equipment.

• Compliance – Meet regulatory requirements and ensure your electrical system is aligned with industry standards.

• Cost Savings – Avoid production losses by preventing unnecessary outages and equipment damage.
