Testing & Commissioning

Experience. Training. Commitment. Safety. Service.

We provide commissioning, testing, and maintenance services for distribution and transmission substations. Our testing and commissioning staff has a combined experience of more than 130 years.

The team is comprised of Protection Engineers, Senior SCADA Technicians, Senior Relay Technicians, and Relay Technicians.  Our testing & commissioning work has ranged from 480V generators to 500kV bulk transmission substations, nationwide. We install, troubleshoot, and test substation SCADA, annunciation, recording, telecommunication, and protective relay systems. We have commissioned renewable resources, as well as traditional utility infrastructures.

Our core competencies include directing construction electricians in brownfield substations, developing energization sequence plans, electromechanical/microprocessor relay testing, event analysis, and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA). Realtime specializes in the small wires/control aspects of commissioning which requires specific knowledge of electrical networks and relay philosophy. Realtime also provides field testing related to substation design, including soil resistivity, ground grid, and ground well testing.

Our reputation has been built on providing testing services that ensure rigorous functional equipment verification and precise as-built drawings and documentation of the completed project.
