Detailed EPM Procedures
Agreement and Initial Assessment: Once you agree to the maintenance service, we will request the one-line diagram and panel schedules. Our team will locate the equipment, verify its location, and confirm the accuracy of the diagrams and schedules. Any deviations discovered will be documented for future reference.
Thermography and Imaging: After identifying and locating all equipment, our technicians will perform thermography on all electrical equipment. This may require starting up and energizing the equipment to gather accurate readings. Each piece of equipment will be photographed in both thermal and regular images. A detailed report will be generated, highlighting any suspicious items and providing possible resolutions.
Cleaning and Maintenance: During this phase, electrical equipment will be de-energized, which may involve contacting the utility service provider and disconnecting the main power to the building. Each piece of equipment will be opened and photographed before any work begins. The equipment will be thoroughly cleaned using rags and cleaning solution. If any wires are not properly landed on breakers, neutral bars, or ground bars, they will be relocated to their proper positions. Panel feeds will be coated with an anti-oxidizing compound on the conductors, and all terminations will be torqued to recommended specifications, marked with paint for easy identification.
Labeling and Documentation: New panel schedules will be installed inside the panel covers. Disconnects will be labeled to indicate their power source and the equipment they control. We can provide and install new phenolic labels and arc flash labels on the equipment. Updated panel schedules and one-line diagrams will be provided to the customer.
