RISK MITIGATION
PROTECTING FINANCIAL TRADING & HIGH-AVAILABILITY ASSETS
Financial headquarters and trading environments leave zero margin for power interruption. A single uncoordinated switchgear trip, hidden busbar thermal spike, or unmitigated arc flash event can freeze live trading operations, resulting in immediate regulatory exposure and millions in transactional losses.
Traditional invasive maintenance requiring total power shutdowns is often impossible to schedule. MET Group delivers non-intrusive energised condition monitoring alongside meticulously planned out-of-hours maintenance, safeguarding critical power paths without risking live financial operations.
PREDICTIVE DIAGNOSTICS vs. REACTIVE FAILURE
MET Group UK bridges the gap between statutory compliance and continuous operational uptime. By deploying non-intrusive energised testing, our engineers detect micro-arcing and thermal anomalies months before component degradation leads to power failure—all while your facility remains 100% operational.
TAILORED SOLUTIONS FOR FINANCIAL POWER SYSTEMS
Specialist electrical maintenance designed around the strict risk profile of financial institutions.
Non-Intrusive Live Diagnostics
High-resolution thermography and acoustic ultrasound scans across live main intake switchboards, detecting micro-arcing and high-resistance joints without interrupting live trading desks or server rooms.
Primary ACB & Switchgear Care
Secondary injection testing, contact resistance checks, and breaker overhauls to guarantee exact trip coordination, preventing main-intake tripping during downstream electrical faults.
24/7 SAP & Duty Holding Cover
Our Senior Authorised Persons manage site switching schedules, safe isolations, and tailored COMA frameworks, ensuring full statutory compliance under UK and European regulations.
METHODOLOGY & EXECUTION
OUR ENGINEERING DELIVERY FRAMEWORK
A structured, non-disruptive process engineered to audit, maintain, and protect mission-critical financial assets without operational load drops.
01
Site Assessment & Risk Mapping
Reviewing single-line diagrams (SLDs), existing maintenance schedules, and critical load topologies to map out zero-disruption testing windows.
02
Non-Intrusive Baseline Surveys
Executing live thermal and acoustic ultrasound audits under normal operating load to identify early-stage thermal and electrical anomalies.
03
Planned Out-of-Hours Maintenance
Scheduling intrusive overhauls (ACB/HV) strictly during pre-approved, off-peak maintenance windows with full rollback contingency.
04
Plain-English Asset Intelligence
Delivering data-rich predictive reports with prioritised asset health scores, clear C1–C3 defect coding, and executive summary matrices.
TECHNICAL STANDARDS & EQUIPMENT SCOPE
HIGH VOLTAGE (HV) SWITCHGEAR
11kV network operation, transformer oil and DGA analysis, partial discharge monitoring, and statutory compliance management.
SAFETY & ARC FLASH COMPLIANCE
IEEE 1584 Arc Flash boundary calculations, detailed incident energy modelling, mandatory PPE sizing, and site safety rules authoring.
LOW VOLTAGE (LV) DISTRIBUTION
Primary/Secondary ACB injection testing, MCCB calibration, busbar joint torque verification, and thermographic load surveys.
QUALITY & STATUTORY REPORTING
Full adherence to Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, ISO 9001 quality frameworks, and ISO 45001 safety management.
