Expertise
Implementation of energy efficient DC LED light fixtures and fans for Office buildings to improve service life without any major maintenance.
Implementation of Lighting system with occupancy sensors for Lab/office building to conserve energy.
Implementaion of Exhaust fan control with weekly Timers for Lab/office building to conserve energy.
For System Improvement, Numerical Relay being developed by E& IG have been connected in 11 kV panel, CSS on a trial basis.
For System Improvement, Rear door safety logics by mechanical interlocks have been implemented in CSS (Bus section - B). This will prevent the rear door to be opened without switching Off the CB and with drawing it out-side the cubicle.
