Our site-experienced Electrical Engineers have the practical knowledge and understanding of site challenges and what’s required to keep your site running 24/7.

With our pragmatic approach, our Electrical Engineers are adept at ensuring your electrical system is compliant with Australian Standards, such as AS/NZS 3000, 3007, 3008, 3010, 4871, 2081, AS 2067 and industry standards like IEEE 1584 and NFPA 70E while keeping your personnel safe.

Keeping sites compliant, efficient + safe ​

Waterline understands that the electrical distribution systems required to keep your site running 24/7 are extensive. They are complex and constantly changing to support the requirements of operations and future development. To maximise reliability, ensure compliance with Australian Standards and maintain safety, you need a record of how everything is currently connected and calculations, to ensure it will work effectively and safely.

We’ve delivered Power Modelling projects using PowerTools for Windows (PTW) and PowerCAD for major Australian mining asset owners and operators. Our RPEQ Engineers know what’s required to keep your site compliant and personnel safe. It’s because of our knowledge and understanding coupled with our pragmatic approach that clients collaborate with Waterline for their Power Modelling requirements. Like these clients who we’ve supported as an extension to their team. Read the difference our team can make for your site.

Power model updates BMA Daunia Mine

  • The needed an up to date power model based on As-Built data
  • The client also required updated Arc Flash incident energy levels and stickers per IEEE 1584:2018
  • There was a need to ensure there were no compliance issues with current protection settings, cables, transformer and generator loadings, etc

Waterline’s site-experienced engineers:

  • Updated the existing model with As-Built documentation provided by site (Single Line Diagrams, Cable Schedules, Protection Settings registers, etc)
  • Updated Single Line Diagrams with revised Arc Flash information
  • Delivered a Power Study Report highlighting areas of increased risk for further investigation:
    – Load Flow Study (Cable Sizing, Maximum Demand & Fault Level)
    – Coordination Study
    – Arc Flash Study

Our team updated the client’s:

  • Power Model—ensuring compliance with Australian Standards
  • Arc Flash incident energy levels—ensuring workers know what PPE is required at certain pieces of equipment
