Pre-commissioning of distribution network automation equipment
Pre-commissioning involves a series of checks and tests to ensure that the installed systems are ready for the commissioning phase. This includes flushing, cleaning, pressure testing, and functional testing of individual components and systems. At the start of the project, automation typically starts with a definition of what functions the system are to perform. The following document sets out the minimum procedures and requirements to be carried out by the customer for the pre-commissioning of a 110kV/220kV/400kV substation to be connected to the Transmission Grid. Learn how substation commissioning verifies design intent and system integration through FAT, SAT, cold (pre-energization), and hot (post-energization) phases—reducing risk and ensuring safety. We support your team in identifying problems early and minimizing risk before production begins.
