BACKGROUND
EnergyPro were engaged to take over as technical managers for a 12-turbine site. Upon initial site inspection including a review of safety standards, it was identified that SF6 labelling was absent from most of the substation and turbine switchgear.
ENERGYPRO ACTIONS
This was flagged as a takeover action. EnergyPro procured signage and arranged for the OEM and HV contractor to apply it at the next site visit.
RESULTS
This site is now fully compliant with SF6 regulations regarding labelling and identification of greenhouse gases.
" We have an EnergyPro safety standard. And every site is held up to that standard."
