Electrical laboratories include power distribution, generation, transmission, electrical machines, drives, automation, DEMVE project and EMC.
Electrical power distribution, power transmission and power generation laboratory
All models which are related to producing power and getting it to end the user is here. We simulate every step of the process from start to finish. Projection relays are a big part of this laboratory.
Examples of the Equipment in the laboratory
Power plant model with protection relays: Arteq AQ-G257, sheider electrics, ABB REG6512
Medium voltage grid model with protection relays: ABB REF615, ABB REF630, sheider electrics
Vacuum cicuit braker joint with remote control
Transformers protection model with protection relays: Arteq AQ-T216, sheider electrics , ABB RET615

Electrical machines and drives laboratory
Here we study the operation performance of various types of DC and AC machines and drives. The studies that we do are motor test bench load and torque studies, weather cabinet testing, high-voltage endurance testing, magnetic field measurements, product-specific type testing, and tailored product development projects.
Examples of the Equipment in the laboratory
Engine protection model Arqtek m210, ABB REM 615, sheider electrics
omicron CMC 356 calibrated
Many different types of electric motors
Motor testbench max 5,5Kv
Resistors (all are adjustable): 50ohm 10A , 54ohm 8A, 60ohm 8A, 100ohm 7A, 400ohm

DEMVE laboratory
The project’s overall objective is to strengthen the Vaasa region expertise in energy technology at the international level by developing expertise in communications standards for electricity distribution. During the project period, several of the different vendors’ products are collected in a laboratory to examine the data transfer between the products and to create training modules on communication standards.

Electrical automation laboratory
This is all about monitoring and controlling different industrial processes. That is achived by programmable smart controllers and different measuring modules. We have a real controlling space built inside which imitates a controlling room. Right next to that is different small scale models of real-life situations.
Examples of the Equipment in the laboratory
Small scale water process Siemens simatic logic
ABB AC 800M + IO technology
Small scale model of elevator, Siemens simatic

EMC laboratory
The electromagnetic disturbance generated by the device should not exceed a level that would prevent the operation of radio and telecommunication equipment and other devices as intended. The device must have sufficient immunity to electromagnetic interference to enable the device to function as intended. Certification of the EMC properties of the device requires testing according to the standards and is done in this laboratory.
Examples of the Equipment in the laboratory
Radio echoless, disturbance protected measuring room 7,4 m x 3,2 m x 3,3 m
Measurement receiver ESU, 20 Hz – 26,5 GHz, R&S
Antenna Bilog, 30 MHz – 2,5 GHz, Chase
Artificial mains-network ESH2-Z5, 9 kHz – 30 MHz, R&SRF-amplifiers ja antennas for endurance testing
