Factory Acceptance Testing

Once each switchboard is built, any PLC and HMI programs are uploaded, and the board is put through a range of tests.

In-house programming means the board can be thoroughly tested with the program uploaded before delivery to site, greatly speeding up commissioning.

Wiring

Performed by experienced industrial electricians and apprentices, wiring quality and speed is greatly assisted by our proprietary semi-automated in-house WireSYS platform.

Containerised Switchrooms

Metroid supplies fully fitted custom 40′ and 20′ containerised switchrooms built to comply with all relevant Australian standards and any stringent client specifications.

Having a complete containerised switchroom delivered with the control switchboards and all other equipment pre-installed, saves significant time and headache on site.
