ECAP: Study and Calculation of Protection Adjustment
Engineering calculation of short circuit levels to define adjustments and coordination of electrical protections, considering selectivity, operational safety, future maintenance and operational continuity of the system.
← Back to services
Study, calculation and adjustment of protections with an applied technical approach.
Technical scope
Coordinated protections installed in easy-to-maintain conditions to operate with confidence and peace of mind.
The ECAP study makes it possible to evaluate failure scenarios and define effective and efficient protections, equipment and adjustment in the face of different failures.
- Study of the electrical system, background review, project, feeders, impedances and other electrical parameters of interest.
- Calculation of short circuits and coordination criteria according to scope.
- Definition and review of settings for electrical protections.
- ECAP report with results, criteria, curves, detailed specifications and recommendations.
Do you need to check your protection settings?
Let's talk about the system, its equipment and the available background information.

Frequently asked questions
What information is needed to quote?
Location, type of installation, available drawings, photos, objective of the work and any previous technical report help define the scope.
Can the service be adapted to an operating plant?
Yes. The scope can be planned around operating restrictions, safety conditions and available shutdown windows.
Does IONIZE deliver technical reports?
Yes. The deliverable can include measurements, observations, evidence and recommendations according to the agreed scope.
Can you support commissioning or corrective actions?
Yes. We can support review, testing, verification and technical criteria for commissioning or corrective work.
