Alltec Power Quality Engineers Customize Grounding Solutions

Alltec Corporation’s engineering and design services are an integral part of our core business. As “Solution providers for an energized world™” we help client companies develop real world solutions to power quality issues across the globe. Alltec Engineers have the skills to handle the most challenging design projects and can provide customized grounding designs for virtually any application.

Alltec knows that a design is not valid unless it will survive the loadings or impact forces seen in its operational environment. Our Design Engineers utilize information gathered from pre-installation testing to create a grounding system that is specific to the site parameters. Alltec has developed the TerraEval^sm Advanced Solution Assessment engineering service to facilitate in the design of grounding systems which meet or exceed any performance specification.

1. First, the TerraEval^® testing process takes into account:

• Soil resistivity of the area
• Geographical size of the site
• Typical local atmospheric conditions

2. Next, customized grounding designs are created:

• WinIGS™ and CDEGS™ Grounding Analysis Software is utilized to develop a system to meet each client’s specifications, including ground potential rise and fault current distribution.
• Construction prints created in AutoCAD^® are provided for installation.

Alltec’s loyal client base is a testimony to our company’s commitment to quality, and Alltec adheres to the following standards:

Standards

• Underwriters Laboratories (UL)
• National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
• Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
