Substation design documents, checked against your utility standards

Power utility software for engineering compliance. Substation drawings, single line diagrams and design documents reviewed against the utility design standards that govern them.

The segment

Utility assets outlive the people who designed them

A substation commissioned today will be modified by engineers who were not there when it was designed, against standards that have been revised several times since.

Utility asset management depends on knowing what a document was built to comply with, long after the project team has moved on.

What has to survive

The link between an asset, its design documents, and the utility design standard in force when it was approved.

Lose that and every modification starts with an investigation.

Where it breaks

Substation design review happens across a lifecycle, not a project

Utility engineering does not end at commissioning. The same documents are revisited at every modification, outage and asset review.

Alongside your stack

It works alongside your asset and project systems

Design packages stay where your asset records live. What changes is that the engineering content inside them is checked before it is filed against the asset.

FAQ

Questions from utility engineering

What is power utility software for engineering compliance?

It is software that checks utility engineering documents against the standards that govern them. standrdX reviews substation drawings, single line diagrams, specifications and equipment datasheets against your own utility design standards and raises each deviation with its clause.

Can it review substation drawings?

Yes. Single line diagrams, layouts and general arrangements are read as engineering objects and checked against the applicable standard, with findings raised against the object.

How does it handle standards that have been revised?

Each finding records the standard and revision it was judged against, which is what makes it possible to establish later what a revision affects.

Do you support IEEE and our internal standards together?

Both. Industry standards and your own utility design standards sit in the same library, and the governing order between them is set by you rather than assumed.

We manage assets in Maximo. Does this replace it?

No. Maximo holds the asset record. standrdX checks the engineering documents behind it against the standards that govern them.

Does it help with utility compliance management reporting?

The evidence is produced by the review rather than assembled afterwards, and exports for internal audit or regulator review.

Next step

Start with one substation package.

Load your utility design standard and a design package, and see what standrdX raises against what the design review found.
