Our staff are continually trained, both through formal qualifications and actual work experience, to ensure good working practices, quality assurance, accommodation of client-focused budgets and timescales and the forging of strong professional relationships.

We can prepare Functional Design Specifications (FDS), Hardware Design Specifications (HDS), or if you already have these then we can work from those to design a control system that is best suited to your requirements, drawing experience from a range of engineering disciplines.

Following industry standards closely, such as BS EN 61439-2 - Low Voltage Switchgear and Controlgear Assemblies and BS EN 60204-1 - Safety of Machinery. Electrical Equipment of Machines. General Requirements, Progress Electrical Control Solutions Ltd can design your control system using the latest technologies and to the strictest standards. We can design systems to your specification or if required, we can offer our expertise to guide you and supply you with the best possible solution.

If your application involves hazardous areas or safety critical systems, we have the experience and knowledge to cater for this.

Our experienced staff are able to produce top quality control panels, fully tested prior to delivery and within agreed timescales. We use only top quality, time-proven components; from cable ducting fixings through to Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and Variable Speed Drives (VFD). Although we are very competitive on price, we never scrimp on engineering quality.

We have 20 years experience in building electrical control panels, and are proud in the craftsmanship and skill that goes into each and every one that we supply. Our comprehensive test procedure ensures that control panels are built to the design drawings and meet any customer specific requirements.

Depending on your requirements, we are able to offer Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and commissioning, or can just deliver the completed control panel to you for your own installation.

Enclosures can be off-the-shelf types such as Rittal and Eldon, or we can offer bespoke purpose-built enclosures, such as those that would be adopted for Form 4 suites, for example.

We can supply a simple junction box, a wall-mounted control panel with relay logic through to a floor standing enclosure containing PLC equipment, inverter drives and networking components.

175kw Hydro Station

Hydroelectric power is the generation of electricity from the energy given up by water as it falls. So wherever there is falling water it should be possible, in theory, to generate electricity.

Hydropower systems can be used in isolation from the national grid, for example to provide electricity where the only other alternative is a diesel generator. But more usually, a scheme will be set up to run alongside the national grid so that surplus power can be sold to others and so that there is a backup when there is not enough water for the turbine (in dry weather spells). Even when a hydro system is grid connected, it is still possible to use the electricity generated on site for the home or business that it is attached to.
