Narec has opened a new ASTA recognised laboratory in Blyth, Northumberland. Electrical and insulation materials testing can be carried out for voltage levels up to 250kV AC / 1MV DC, lightning impulse up to 400kV and current levels up to 8kA AC.
Located adjacent to our own dry dock facilities, this provides opportunities for saltwater immersion, simulated seabed trialling and testing of MV cable systems and umbilicals. Also on site, our low voltage facility has model-generation technologies linked to a fully controlled electrical grid network.
Technical consultancy specialisms include: electrical network planning, design, evaluation and characterisation of insulation (and other) materials, equipment asset management, chemicals and materials analysis, environmental assessment, forensic investigations and field services.
