Arc Flash Many companies are now aware that they must comply with the OSHA/NFP 70E electrical safety mandate for Arc Flash Safety. In the US alone, 5-7 arc flash incidents occur daily in the workplace. With a staggering financial impact per incident. Often, we have encountered customers who are at risk of losing insurance coverage due to a recent accident at work, usually it’s not electrically related! During their insurance investigation it is noted they do not have flash hazard mitigation and their insurance company mandates that they do or risk losing coverage.

Renewable Energy Design Currently Sunlight, wind and moving water are potentially unlimited and free to the public, while fossil fuels are not. If your location has good access to wind and/or sunlight we can design systems to convert this energy and connect it to your existing electrical grid, or ‘islanded’ power system. Depending on where your location is, local and utility regulations will determine the level of difficulty to allow such a distributed generation system. Some locations may have a fee or tax to pay, others may have none, and still others may provide lucrative financial incentives, to do so. Although financial models will vary, we specialize in the electrical engineering for these projects from photovoltaic modules to turbines, through conversion and interconnection to the grid. Our sealed designs have been used to build renewable energy projects in over 30 states and foreign countries.

EV Design Recent innovations in battery technology and decreasing charging times have increased the demand for electric vehicles and the charging stations necessary to run them. Whether it is for a residential home station or commercial fleet charging, H2DC has the experience working with a variety of different station types and locations to get your project deployed and operating optimally.

Energy Storage Systems With generation from renewable sources being sporadic at times due to cloud cover or lack of wind, coupled with specific demand requirements for your location, including much higher utility rates during peak demand times, sometimes it becomes cost feasible to add-in energy storage considerations to your facility. Depending on your requirements, these can be AC coupled systems, such as those produced by Tesla (or competing companies) and sometimes a DC coupled system, which is tied to a renewable energy design is more financially feasible and desirable. So for peak shaving or for zero exporting of power to the grid, we can design a system that is just right for your project.

Radio Frequency (RF) Safety OSHA and the FCC require notifications for workers and the general public when working in the environment of radio frequencies, particularly those from cell antennas/towers. The non-ionizing radiation emitted from these devices must be carefully analyzed to understand exposure levels and associated risks. Communications towers need verification with FCC Bulletin 65 from the Office of Engineering & Technology. We can be the independent third-party P.E. review for your reports and other radio frequency compliance work.

Commercial & Retail Electrical Design Other than distributed generation designs, classic building distribution design for commercial retail and restaurant designs have been the legacy services we have been providing customers since the 1990s. Bob’s Discount Furniture, Staples, Legal Seafood, Barnes and Nobel and a large variety of lesser known retail stores and restaurants have used our designs in over 300 different locations currently. We have worked with other engineering firms, architects, developers, interacting with inspectors, fire chiefs, code officials, building owners, planning boards, zoning boards, conservation commissions, internal engineering groups and politicians.
