CPC Process
Communication Protection and Control Technologists
CPC testing is often required on work sites in isolated locations. Technologists work alongside professional engineers, electricians, contractors, designers and management to complete the work safely and efficiently.
Our team performs installations, testing and commissioning to ensure the CPC systems are functioning properly from the start of the project through to completion. Crews safely integrate new equipment into existing brownfield stations and turn up equipment for new stations in a safe and predictable fashion. We continually review and assess construction documentation throughout each project. Identifying and developing areas for innovation and improvement ensures complete client satisfaction and functionality at project completion and beyond.
Examples of CPC Responsibilities
Review of all project documentation for thoroughness and accuracy including schematic drawings, wiring diagrams, protection applications, protection settings, etc.
Scheduling including outages and maintenance planning.
Testing of all CPC equipment including protection relays and associated SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) and communications equipment.
Energization and turn up of new equipment.
