Motor Control Centres
Motor control centres are the power distribution backbone of every process plant. We install, commission and maintain MCCs across all industrial sectors — from direct-on-line starters to complex variable speed drive installations.
Overview
Motor control centres are at the heart of process plant electrical infrastructure. They distribute power to every driven load — pumps, fans, conveyors, compressors — and house the starters, protection devices and control interfaces that determine whether the process can run. When an MCC fails or a drive faults, production stops.
Reprise Electrical delivers MCC projects with the technical depth that industrial environments require. We commission variable speed drives with the correct parameter settings for each driven load — ramp rates, current limits, torque curves — and verify motor running data against nameplate and design parameters. We test the PLC interface for every start/stop, run/fault and analogue feedback signal before the plant goes live.
For established plants, we provide MCC maintenance services — thermographic inspection, contact resistance testing, insulation resistance testing and drive preventive maintenance — on structured programs that align with production shutdowns and minimise unplanned outages.
