Prefabricated electrical buildings / E-houses / RIEs

A Creatum E-house or RIE is a coordinated grouping of distribution, conversion, control, and supervisory equipment in an all-weather, factory-integrated enclosure, delivered ready to set on prepared foundations.

The building is designed, fabricated, and integrated to customer specifications. Structural steel, interlocking wall and roof panels, HVAC, fire and alarm and suppression, lighting, grounding pads, and customer-furnished or Creatum-procured equipment are assembled and factory-acceptance tested before shipment. Traveler control stays with the building in the factory.

Equipment that may be housed includes MV and LV switchgear, VFDs, MCCs, dry-type transformers, PLC/DCS cabinets, UPS and batteries, panelboards, telecom and server cabinets, and fire and alarm and suppression panels.

Integrated power skids

A Creatum integrated power skid is a factory-built welded steel assembly on which conversion equipment is received, set, interconnected, cooled, protected, lighted, and functionally tested before shipment.

Standard factory scope covers skid structural design and fabrication (ASTM A36 / A572 Gr. 50), receiving inspection, equipment setting and anchoring, power and control interconnection, cooling, fire detection, lighting, grounding pads, point-to-point checkout, and FAT. Conversion platforms include solid-state devices and solid-state transformer / power-conversion units.

Multi-skid programs run as a repeating factory unit: one typical engineered, first-article inspected, then series production. Customer specifications and the project single-line, cable schedule, and OEM data sheets govern interconnection.

Electrical construction

The same organization that fabricates the building performs the field electrical around it.

Field work covers LV, MV, and HV through 345 kV: equipment setting, cable pull, splice and terminate, grounding grids, fiber, and NETA standard testing. Electrical safety credentials cover work below 1 kV, through 34.5 kV, and through 345 kV.

Field procedures cover megger, VLF, MV splicing, fiber, trenching, grounding rings, and substation cable. Platforms we regularly integrate include Eaton, Schneider Electric, Siemens Energy, GE, Hitachi, Powell, Sungrow, and equivalent conversion equipment.
