Quality Control You Can See Before Shipment
Every switchgear cabinet that leaves our facility must pass through a five-stage quality assurance process, from raw materials to final release for shipment.
Verified Components Before They Enter Your Switchgear
All purchased components, such as circuit breakers, transformers, insulators, busbar material, and auxiliary devices, are verified against approved vendor lists and inspected upon receipt.Verifying Certificates & Test Data
Verify the certificates of conformity, type test reports, and factory test data.
Inspecting Structural Parts
Conduct dimensional and visual inspection of busbars, enclosures, and structural parts.
Testing Insulating Materials
Run sampling tests on insulating materials and other components.
Rejecting Non-Conforming Parts
Prevent defective components from entering the production line to safeguard the original reliability.
Precision Assembly That Meets the Drawing
Component assembly must strictly follow standard operating procedures to ensure worker safety while maintaining a clean, dust-free workshop environment.Torquing Every Bolted Connection
Tighten all bolted joints to specified torque values, with each connection point recorded for traceability.
Verifying Clearances & Phase Sequence
Check conductor clearances, creepage distances, and phase sequence against design drawings.
Testing Shutters, Interlocks & Truck Mechanisms
Verify shutters, interlocks, and the truck’s mechanical performance in different positions: service, test, and withdrawn.
Checking Wiring Against Schematics
Check all internal wiring against schematics, including ferrule identification, terminal tightening, and earthing continuity.
Every Panel Proves Safe in Electrical Verification
Before any energization, each panel undergoes a comprehensive program of routine tests in accordance with IEC 60298 and GB 3906.Measuring Main Circuit Resistance
Measure the resistance of the main circuit.
Applying Withstand Voltage Tests
Run a power-frequency withstand voltage test on the main circuit and auxiliary circuits.
Measuring Partial Discharge
Verify misoperation-prevention functions; detect partial discharge where specified.
Testing Relays & Verifying Metering
Test protection relays by secondary injection and verify metering accuracy.
Nothing Ships Only With Approval
The FAT confirms that the switchgear is built in conformity with the approved drawings, the technical specification, and all applicable standards.Repeating Comprehensive Checks
Perform visual and mechanical checks; verify design drawings, test procedures, and technical documents.
Running Key Tests Per Standards
Conduct tests per IEC standards and project specs, including withstand tests, primary/secondary injection tests, and corrosion resistance tests.
Re-Testing Before Release
Record deviations or non-conformities during FAT, take corrective measures, and re-test until all units pass before release.
Preparing Before Shipping
Issue the FAT report and release certificate; clean the cabinet surface.
From Our Factory Floor to Your Site, Intact and On Time
Shipment isn’t simply switchgear dispatched. Every step follows a controlled process covering final verification, export-grade protection, document preparation, and coordinated logistics.Packing for Export
Pack each cabinet in export-grade packaging with moisture proofing and shock absorbers.
Coordinating the Logistics
Manage the entire transport chain —booking, routing, and customs coordination—to ensure on-time delivery to the site.
Documenting Before Dispatch
Photograph and record packaging, loading, and container sealing.
Delivering the Full Dossier
Prepare a complete documentation package for every shipment: routine test reports, FAT protocol, operating manuals, and spare parts list.
