Electrical Testing & Commissioning Services Perth

Proper commissioning verifies that newly installed machinery is electrically connected, configured, and operating as intended before being placed into normal production.

By checking items such as phase rotation, control signals, motor protection settings, safety circuits, sensors, interlocks, and operating sequences, commissioning helps identify installation or configuration issues before they lead to equipment damage, unexpected downtime, or unsafe operation.

It also provides a clear handover point between installation and day-to-day operation, giving your team greater confidence that the machinery is ready for service.

Our testing and commissioning work is carried out with reference to the Australian electrical standards and requirements applicable to the specific installation.

This commonly includes AS/NZS 3000 for electrical installations and verification, along with other relevant standards covering electrical testing, low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies, and machinery safety.

Where machinery safety systems are involved, we functionally test items such as emergency stops, safety relays, guard interlocks, and related control circuits as part of the commissioning process.

Cold commissioning is generally carried out before the machinery is placed into normal operation. It includes checks such as wiring verification, continuity testing, insulation resistance testing where applicable, device configuration, and functional checks of control and safety circuits.

Hot commissioning takes place after the system has been safely energised. This involves verifying motor rotation, field signals, sensors, drives, interlocks, control sequences, and overall machine operation under normal operating conditions.

Together, cold and hot commissioning help confirm that the electrical and control systems are correctly installed, configured, and ready for service.

Yes. We can inspect, test, and modify the electrical systems of imported machinery to help identify issues that may prevent safe installation or operation within a Western Australian industrial environment.

Depending on the equipment, this may include checking earthing and bonding, control voltages, electrical protection, wiring arrangements, emergency stops, safety circuits, motors, drives, and control equipment, along with completing any required electrical modifications within our scope.

Following the work, we can provide relevant electrical test results and documentation for the completed installation or modifications. Where specialist engineering, machinery certification, or additional compliance assessment is required, this should be completed by the appropriate qualified party.

The documentation supplied depends on the scope of work and the equipment being commissioned.

Where applicable, this may include electrical test results, commissioning records, inspection checklists, compliance documentation, equipment settings, and updated or marked-up electrical schematics.

For larger or more complex projects, additional documentation such as I/O check sheets, drive parameter records, functional test results, and handover information can also be provided to support future maintenance and troubleshooting.
