PJM Manual 14G Interconnection Services

A Coordinated Electric System Interconnection Review—the utility’s deep-dive on technical and cost impacts of your project.

Challenge: Frequent false tripping using conventional electromechanical relays
Solution: SEL-487E integration with multi-terminal differential protection and dynamic inrush restraint
Result: 90% reduction in false trips, saving over $250,000 in downtime

Power seamless PJM Manual 14G interconnections with Keentel Engineering

PJM’s Eastern Interconnection sets the gold-standard for grid reliability and market efficiency—but every generation owner must pass Manual 14G’s strict queue, study, and site-control rules before a single megawatt can flow. Keentel Engineering delivers turnkey PJM interconnection services that keep your project compliant and on schedule, whether you’re launching a utility-scale solar farm, combined-cycle plant, BTM resource, or battery-energy-storage system.

Our specialists handle the entire generation-interconnection life-cycle—queue-point applications, feasibility and system-impact studies, PE-stamped design packages, and SCADA / metering integration—so your asset plugs safely into PJM’s transmission grid without costly re-studies or delays.

Services	Key modules / outputs
Queue Point Application Assistance	Correct Attachment N, Y, or BB selection, data prep, and milestone tracking.
Feasibility and System Impact Studies	Dynamic, steady-state, and fault analysis in PSSE, PSCAD, ETAP, DigSILENT—plus mitigation options.
Engineering Design & Site Control Review	PE-stamped one-line diagrams, grounding and SCADA plans, deed/lease vetting (meets 3-year rule).
CIR & Resource-Type Strategy	Capacity vs Energy Resource modelling, CIR transfer evaluations under Tariff §230.
SCADA & Metering Compliance	Telemetry specs, RTAC configs, Attachment F testing for each Transmission Owner.

Project	Challenge	Keentel Engineering Solution	Result
120 MW Solar + BESS – ComEd Zone	Fast-track CIR acquisition and dual-use storage modelling	Filed Attachment N, ran combined feasibility + system-impact study, aligned SCADA tags with POI specs	ISA executed in 6 months; CIRs granted—project shovel-ready
18 MW BtM Wind – AEP Zone	Market-participation rules & site-control validation	PE-stamped one-lines, BtMG compliance memo, secured WMPA	Interconnected on first attempt; offsets 60 % onsite load
25 MW Biomass Fuel-Switch – PECO	Fuel change to RNG triggered new generation-interconnection filing	Revised Attachment N, analysed reactive-power (MVAR) per Manual 14 G	PJM approved without full re-study; plant re-classified as RNG
50 MW CIR Transfer – PSEG Zone	Move legacy peaker Capacity Injection Rights to new BESS	PSSE impact model; transfer application under Tariff §230	CIRs reassigned, no network upgrades—battery project advanced

In 1995, Sandip (Sonny) R. Patel earned his Electrical Engineering degree from the University of Illinois, specializing in Electrical Engineering . But degrees don’t build legacies—action does. For three decades, he’s been shaping the future of engineering, not just as a licensed Professional Engineer across multiple states (Florida, California, New York, West Virginia, and Minnesota), but as a doer. A builder. A leader. Not just an engineer. A Licensed Electrical Contractor in Florida with an Unlimited EC license. Not just an executive. The founder and CEO of KEENTEL LLC—where expertise meets execution. Three decades. Multiple states. Endless impact.
