Short-Circuit Studies

Fault current calculations to verify equipment interrupting ratings are adequate. Required when adding new equipment, upgrading service, or when utility fault current levels have changed.

ANSI/IEEE · NFPA 70 NEC

Coordination Studies

Time-current curve analysis to ensure protective devices operate in the correct sequence. Critical for facilities with multiple sources, generators, or complex distribution systems.

IEEE 242 · NFPA 70

Harmonic Analysis

Power quality studies for facilities with VFDs, motor controls, or non-linear loads. Essential for New York wastewater treatment plants, manufacturing facilities, and data centers.

IEEE 519 · IEEE 1159

Load Flow Analysis

Steady-state power flow studies to identify voltage regulation issues and verify equipment loading. Critical for planning electrical infrastructure expansions and additions.

IEEE 399

Duct Bank Heat Studies

Cable ampacity calculations for underground duct banks using CYMCAP, required for large commercial developments, utilities, and medium-voltage underground distribution projects in New York.

New York Power Landscape

The Grid We Engineer For in New York

Every power system study TPS delivers in New York accounts for the utilities, fault duties, and interconnection requirements specific to the state. This is the landscape our New York work sits in.

New York operates its own wholesale grid, NYISO (the New York Independent System Operator), one of seven RTOs/ISOs in North America. The state is served by Con Edison, National Grid, NYSEG, Rochester Gas & Electric, Orange & Rockland, Central Hudson, PSEG Long Island, and the New York Power Authority. The available fault current at any facility service is set by the serving utility and can shift when that utility upgrades transformers, ties, or substations, which is why short-circuit and arc flash studies should be revisited after any utility-side work.

New York does NOT operate a state OSHA plan for private-sector employers. Private workplaces in the state are covered by federal OSHA, which enforces electrical safety through 29 CFR 1910 Subpart S and treats NFPA 70E as the consensus standard for arc flash risk assessment and equipment labeling. State and local government employees are covered separately by the New York Public Employee Safety and Health (PESH) program. A current, PE-sealed arc flash study is the documentation a federal OSHA or PESH inspector or an insurance auditor expects to see.

The authority having jurisdiction for the installation varies by locality. In New York City the Department of Buildings (DOB) enforces the NYC Electrical Code; outside NYC, the AHJ is typically the local or county electrical inspection office enforcing the National Electrical Code as adopted in New York. Every study True Power Systems delivers in the state is modeled to current IEEE and NFPA methodology and sealed by a Professional Engineer licensed in New York.

New York FAQ

New York Power System Study Questions

Who enforces arc flash compliance for New York facilities?

New York has no state OSHA plan for private-sector employers, so private workplaces answer to federal OSHA. Federal OSHA enforces electrical safety through 29 CFR 1910 Subpart S, which references NFPA 70E for arc flash risk assessment and equipment labeling. State and local government workplaces are covered separately by the New York PESH program.

Does my New York facility need an arc flash study?

If workers ever interact with energized equipment — troubleshooting, racking breakers, voltage testing — NFPA 70E calls for an arc flash risk assessment and OSHA expects equipment to carry incident-energy labels. New equipment, a service upgrade, or a change in utility fault current all trigger a new or updated study.

How does New York's grid affect my power system study?

New York operates its own RTO, NYISO. Facilities are served by Con Edison, National Grid, NYSEG, RG&E, O&R, Central Hudson, PSEG Long Island, and NYPA. The fault current available at your service comes from the utility and changes when the utility upgrades equipment, so short-circuit and arc flash results should be re-checked after utility-side work.

Who can seal a power system study in New York?

A power system study used for compliance must be sealed by a Professional Engineer licensed in New York. True Power Systems holds an active New York PE license and stamps every New York deliverable.

What does a New York power system study include?

A complete package covers incident-energy calculations and arc flash boundaries, ANSI Z535 equipment labels, short-circuit and equipment-duty evaluation, protective-device coordination, an as-studied one-line diagram, and a PE-sealed report.
