City of Monroe — Relay Panel Modernization & System-Wide Relay Testing
Replacing legacy electromechanical relays with SEL standard panels, plus a protective relay testing program across every Monroe substation.

Project overview
Two pieces of work for the City of Monroe’s electric utility: a relay panel upgrade at an older substation, replacing electromechanical relays with SEL standard panels, and a protective relay testing program across all of Monroe’s substations.
We handle the full range — engineering and integration design, physical installation, commissioning, and checkout — so the design intent carries straight through to the finished panel.
Highlights
- Modern protection retrofitted into an older station without a rebuild
- The same team from design through installation
- Deep familiarity with legacy electromechanical schemes
- Trusted with both capital upgrades and ongoing relay maintenance
Working on something similar?
We’re glad to talk through a project at any stage — including the ones that are still just a one-line on a whiteboard.
