Case Studies

Arc flash studies can become very complicated when critical data points are unavailable. Pioneer Power Group was contracted to perform an arc flash study for a project that was missing vital information.

Pioneer Power Group was contracted to perform an arc flash study. At Pioneer Power Group, the safety of our customers and their clients is our absolute, number ONE priority.

Pioneer Power Group was contracted by a client to produce a series of studies for new electrical equipment which would be installed downstream of existing equipment. Three studies were to be completed:

Pioneer Power Group was contracted to perform a short-circuit/coordination study for the safe installation of a new Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS). Plans for the new equipment were already underway so our client needed the study results as quickly as possible.

Pioneer Power Group was contracted to perform a coordination study for an industrial facility. The one-line diagrams of the distribution system contained both new and existing medium and low voltage equipment.

Pioneer Power Group was contracted to perform a short-circuit study for an apartment complex. The system contained an automatic transfer switch (ATS) fed by the utility via an upstream panel on the normal power side, and by a generator on the emergency power side.

Pioneer Power Group was tasked to perform an electrical system study for a university; this included short circuit, coordination, and arc flash studies. The distribution system consisted of several switchboards, panelboards, and overcurrent protective devices that required evaluation to confirm that they would be able to withstand or interrupt any fault current in the system.

Pioneer Power Group was contracted to perform an arc flash study for a new building. The distribution system for the building contained a main distribution panel and multiple branches downstream containing panels and step-down transformers.


Pioneer Power Group was contracted to perform a coordination study for an elementary school. The distribution system for the school contained life safety branches that required selective coordination.
