Electrical Failure Analysis

Failure Analysis

Our command of electrical, civil, structural, mechanical, and chemical engineering enhances our investigation of failures of every kind. We carry out the collection, preservation and analysis of physical evidence with thoroughness, while taking care to document the details. Our investigators are aware of the delicate legal nature of forensic engineering and treat every investigation as a potential court case. Evidence is reconstructed and laboratory tests are analyzed according to the highest standards.

Our team of engineers have been educated in, and gained exceptional experience in engineering design and failure mode analysis. We excel at the reverse engineering of complex systems in order to determine the mode of their failure.

Electrical Failure Analysis

Rochon Engineering Corporation provides electrical assessments of equipment and component failures that range in size and scope from large industrial and commercial systems to small residential failures.  We have also investigated failures of electric distribution, transmission, and generation equipment.  Our experts have experience designing, maintaining and operating large industrial plants including mining smelters and refineries and large, medium and small hydroelectric generation plants.

Rochon Engineering Corporation maintains a comprehensive library including the Canadian and Ontario Electrical Safety Codes, the Ontario Electrical Safety Code Bulletins, and a complete set of the Canadian Standards Association C22.2, Part 2 Standards.  Up-to-date knowledge of electrical Codes and Standards is fundamental when dealing with electrical failures and malfunctions.

Whether it is a power transmission or distribution failure, a failure within a large industrial/commercial electrical system or a small residential failure, we can assist you.
