MET Group Can Maintain Both, Your HV & LV Infrastructure
With the advancement in the electrification of processes, our customers are experiencing an increased demand for industrial and commercial power supplies. Where a 240V or 3-phase power supply once sufficed, many now require power directly from the local distribution network (the grid) at High Voltage (6.6kV or 11kV) to support larger equipment and higher power needs.
Operating at High Voltage (HV) necessitates compliance with the Electricity at Work Act and Health and Safety at Work Regulations, ensuring a safe environment for employees and business operations. MET Group assists customers in navigating these changes by offering and managing Control, Operation, and Maintenance Agreements (COMA).
