Consulting Engineers Forum Oct 29th

Description

Electrical commissioning is most effective when it is planned from the start—not addressed at the end of construction.

Join the Consulting Engineering Forum for Electrical Commissioning Essentials: Process, Roles, and Practical Considerations, a practical overview designed for consulting engineers, electrical contractors, designers, and project teams.

Presenter Derek Troy, BCxP, LEED AP, will explain how commissioning should be incorporated into project drawings, specifications, and early planning to establish clear expectations before construction begins. Attendees will explore commonly commissioned systems, team roles, testing responsibilities, documentation requirements, and coordination considerations that help commissioning efforts run smoothly.

The program will also address the unique demands of complex facilities, including data centers and industrial projects, where early alignment and well-defined procedures are essential to successful system start-up and long-term performance.
