Testing Facilities

Controls & Schematics is accredited with ISO certification hence follows all the quality standards and procedures to the satisfaction of customers.

Quality checks are carried out according to our Quality Assurance Plan approved by the customer ensuring zero deviation in the claimed performance of the products at site. For achieving the zero defect stage, Controls employs arrays of testing and measuring instruments periodically calibrated in addition to the various inspection and alignment gauges.

Testing of Panels is done at two stages.
1. During the design stage, the panel is tested at CPRI labs, where the Type Tests are conducted as per IS: 8623 part 1. The following type tests are to be carried out for a FBA (Factory Built Assembly). They are carried out to validate the designs by an outside laboratory.
            i) Verification of Temperature rise limits (clause 8.2.1)
            ii) Verification of Di-electric properties (clause 8.2.2)
           iii) Verification of short circuit strength (clause 8.2.3)
            iv) Verification of continuity of protective circuit(clause 8.2.4)
            v) Verification of Clearance and creep age distances (clause 8.2.5)
            vi) Verification of Mechanical operation (clause 8.2.6)
           vii) Verification of degree of protection (clause 8.2.7)
Apart from the above, we conduct Type – 2 Coordination test (verification of performance under short circuit condition) on DOL starters as per clause 8.3.4 of IS: 13947 part 4 at CPRI. This test is conducted against specific requirement of the custome

2. After the assembly is complete, the panel is tested as per the Routine Tests’ procedure mentioned in IS: 8623 part 1. These tests are also witnessed by the customer or the third party inspection appointed by the customer.

In-house facilities are available for conducting heat run tests on the panels up to rating of 4000A on the horizontal bus bars and 600A on vertical bus bars.

Quality Policy / Processes

We at C&S are commited to provide quality products and service through continual improvement of all our processes. We continually strive to attain Highest Customer satisfaction through excellence in product quality,speedy response to changing customer needs and strict adherence to the standards by the involvement of all our personnel to nurture and uphold the quality policies of the organisation.

Infrastructure

We design and manufacture our own vertical sections. Skilled labor, usage of jigs and fixtures enables quality fabrication of the standardized vertical sections with the sheet metal. Yet the design of the vertical can be customized according to the customer’s requirement

We have a complete powder coating facility in-house and all our products are only powder coated according to the customer specs. We follow the seven-tank process and then the process of phosphate coating to make components ready for powder coating. The components are allowed to dry and taken for powder coating and then baked or heated in the oven, specially designed to complete the powder coating process.
