Patterson Power Engineers, LLC
| Power System
Protection & Analysis PPE engineers are experts in power system protection from generation through transmission and distribution. Our years of utility system protection experience, teaching, and IEEE participation give us the experience base from which to help our customers with practical solutions. We can help your organization with relay setting calculations as well as teaching/mentoring newer protection engineers. We can help evaluate your existing protection to satisfy NERC requirements and meet or exceed industry standards. |
 Power system protection and analysis at all levels of generation, transmission, and distribution. |
| Using
available oscillographic data from DFRs and digital relays we
can analyze system events to provide details of operations
leading to improvements in protection and coordination and
finding incipient problems with equipment - all leading to an
improvement in system reliability. We are frequently called upon
to provide independent, expert 3rd party engineering review of
protection systems or root cause analysis of misoperations.
With the possibility of substantial penalties for non-compliance
in todays environment consideration should be given to using
only the most experienced protection engineers to help with your
NERC reviews such as PRC-023 and the potential forthcoming FERC
754 assesements. |
