Industrial & Mining Power Solutions

Connected load and demand

Provide the load list, rated kW or kVA, power factor where known, expected simultaneous operation and measured demand if available. Separate existing loads from future additions.

Motors and starting duty

Identify the largest motors, starting method, starting current and duration where available, starts per hour and restart sequence. State the permitted voltage dip or ask the project engineer to define it.

Cyclic and impact loads

Describe crushers, conveyors, hoists, mills or other process loads where applicable. Share peak magnitude, duration and repetition; suitability for impact duty requires project-specific review.

Non-linear loads

List variable-speed drives, rectifiers and other power-electronic loads. Provide available harmonic data and operating combinations so the need for a power-quality assessment can be reviewed.

Continuity and recovery

Identify critical loads, acceptable interruption time, shutdown windows and restart priorities. Any standby supply, redundancy or transfer arrangement must be defined and agreed; uninterrupted operation is not assumed.

A mining application label does not establish suitability for underground use, explosive atmospheres or combustible dust. Identify the location classification and required evidence before equipment selection. High-altitude or harsh-environment suitability remains subject to project and manufacturer confirmation.

1. 01

   What supply is available?

   Confirm nominal and operating voltages, frequency, utility connection conditions and available fault-level information.

2. 02

   What must remain in service?

   Identify the critical load groups and the operating condition during maintenance, supply loss and restart.

3. 03

   What operating events govern the review?

   Highlight motor starts, sudden load changes, cyclic peaks and non-linear loads; identify who will provide the required studies.

4. 04

   What limits the installation?

   Resolve site classification, environmental conditions, footprint, connection arrangement and transport constraints.

5. 05

   Who approves the technical basis?

   Name the buyer, consultant, plant engineer and utility interfaces as applicable. List unresolved inputs and the owner of each decision.

Transformer package

Define quantity, voltages, proposed capacity, frequency, vector group, impedance, tapping and accessories. Final selection and guaranteed values require an approved technical schedule.

MV distribution

Identify incoming and outgoing feeders, switching arrangement, required fault ratings, protection and metering. Availability, configuration and applicable requirements must be confirmed for the enquiry.

LV distribution

List outgoing circuits, current requirements, protection functions, motor or drive interfaces and spare ways. Confirm which panels and accessories belong in the proposed supply.

Compact substations and components

If requested, define the transformer, enclosure, switching and connection boundaries, or provide component drawings and existing nameplate data. Published category names do not establish a complete available package.

The current public catalogue provides one published product detail page. Other equipment categories are enquiry scope only until a specific product and supply route are confirmed.

Utility or upstream supply → incoming equipment

Confirm connection voltage, fault data, utility requirements, isolation boundary and the party responsible for approval.

Transformer → distribution equipment

Confirm cable or busbar termination, phase arrangement, neutral and earthing interfaces, physical connection details and protection coordination responsibility.

Distribution → plant loads and controls

Define feeder boundaries, motor/drive interfaces, interlocks, alarms, auxiliary power, metering signals and any requested communications protocol. Integration must be agreed explicitly.

Supplier → site team

Allocate equipment supply, drawings, testing, packing and delivery separately from civil works, unloading, installation, cabling, commissioning and energisation. Identify the responsible party for each; none is automatically included.

The quotation and agreed scope schedule determine the included equipment, services, documents and delivery responsibilities.

Document availability, test scope, witness arrangements and delivery timing must be agreed for the selected equipment. Certificates, studies and test records are not promised by this page.
