Project Summary: Electrical works for three blocks at Nestlé's dry pet food factory

In food production, the electrical work is as critical as the production line itself. If one block is commissioned late, the whole production schedule behind it slips. Tiva Enerji took on the electrical works for blocks C1, C2 and C3 at Nestlé's dry pet food factory.

Scope

The job had two main parts. The first was completing the electrical works of all three blocks from start to finish. The second was carrying out the process field terminations connected to the building management system (BMS), pulling their connections and testing them.

Why is field termination a separate work item?

A BMS is the system that monitors and manages a facility's equipment from one central point. But the screen at the center can only show accurate information if the end points in the field are connected correctly. Each of hundreds of end points has to be terminated and labeled one by one, and then it must be confirmed that its signal reaches the center correctly. This work takes patience; a single missed point can cost hours during commissioning.

How it was carried out

The three blocks progressed in parallel. In each block, power, low-current and lighting works were done in turn, followed by the BMS end-point terminations. During testing, every line was verified individually and the results were reported.

Result

All three blocks were handed over on the electrical side, and the BMS connections were handed over in working order. This project is one of the references that shows Tiva Enerji can manage several blocks at the same time on a factory scale.
