On Site Testing
Whenever you install a new or refurbished component, it is essential to verify that it works properly before you put the component or substation into service. Even the smallest failure could cause a full-scale short circuit – with potentially disastrous consequences. Kema Labs offers onsite commissioning testing of components such as transformers, generators and high-voltage […]
