Commissioning

It is recommended that commissioning of the installed assemblies is carried out by TCS's own engineers wherever possible. Our highly skilled personnel are familiar with all aspects of the TCS product range from small conventional wall mounted control panels to major intelligent motor control centres.

Working to pre-prepared commissioning plans and method statements, TCS can provide the correct personnel to commission every aspect of any assembly and the connected plant and equipment, providing the client with the finished operational plant working to his requirements.

Full documentation is provided at each stage of commissioning recording all settings calibrations and test result. This information then forms part of the final operation and maintenance manuals provided for each contract.
