IS successfully completed a 235 KV capacitor bank upgrade projects for Western Area Power Administration (WAPA)

WAPA in the state of Arizona provided IS with a very challenging and interesting project. WAPA has two capacitor banks located in Arizona which had a serious failure preventing operation of both banks. Scope of this upgrades project includes:

• Initiated the engineering walk dow

• Scavenged documentation and deciphered the rest

• Mobilized a prep team to identify and label the entire system that was to be modified

• Design teams worked in tandem designing the new system and developing conversion plans while the other team developed the PLC code.

• Engineered a new protocol to interface new to old.

• Performed multiple layers of testing at ISI facilities and then invited WAPA team to witness the testing.

• Performed system installation

• After successful field commissioning of the new system configuration, both capacitor banks went on line May 30th, 2008 without incident.
