Powering the Future: Transmission Engineering Solutions in the ComEd and PJM Territories

Keentel provides comprehensive engineering services including design, relay protection, system studies, interconnection support, and regulatory compliance for HV/EHV transmission and substation projects.

We assess equipment condition, recommend modern replacements (e.g., SF6 breakers), and support procurement, installation, and commissioning phases.

Yes, our team is well-versed in PJM’s M-3 process, including assumptions, need identification, solution evaluations, and Do-No-Harm (DNH) assessments.

Absolutely. We provide route analysis, conductor and structure design, and compliance with IEEE, NESC, and PJM guidelines.

Yes, we design bus layouts, specify major equipment like reactors and transformers, and coordinate integration with grid operators such as MISO and PJM.

SF6 breakers offer higher interrupting capacity, improved reliability, and lower long-term maintenance, making them ideal for modern HV substations.

We perform detailed protection and coordination studies and develop settings to comply with NERC PRC standards and PJM protection criteria.

Yes. Our substation design team regularly delivers layouts for ring bus, breaker-and-a-half, and GIS substations.

Keentel has experience designing ultra-high voltage systems, including line routing, electromagnetic analysis, and grounding system engineering.

We handle electrical sizing, layout design, transient studies, and breaker specification for reactors and capacitor banks in EHV substations.

Yes, we align our engineering scope with MISO’s Appendix A and long-range transmission planning (LRTP) guidelines.

We support steady-state, short-circuit, and stability studies for interconnection approvals under PJM’s RTEP process.

Yes. We conduct IEEE Std 80-based grounding grid designs, step-and-touch potential studies, and fence grounding calculations.

Yes, our team supports pre- and post-project impact evaluations required under PJM’s DNH assessment process.

We assist in point of interconnection (POI) selection, equipment design, protective relay coordination, and customer-side system impact studies.

We offer quick response for conceptual studies and can deploy engineers rapidly to support detailed design phases upon contract execution.

Yes, we act as Owner’s Engineers to review third-party designs, verify compliance, and support project execution oversight.

We provide accurate design-based cost estimating, procurement support, and offer value engineering options to reduce CAPEX.

We utilize PLS-CADD, ETAP, PSCAD, PSSE, ASPEN OneLiner, AutoCAD, and CYME for design and studies.

Absolutely. We build enduring relationships with utilities and IPPs through multi-phase support, including permitting, design, and commissioning
