Diagnóstico y evaluación de las instalaciones eléctricas en la empresa de servicios en tecnología y telecomunicaciones WODEN Ecuador S.A. con criterios de eficiencia energética.

Abstract

This technical study focuses on the diagnosis and evaluation of the electrical installations of the company WODEN S.A located in the city of Quito, the main objective is to identify possible measures that contribute to the improvement of energy efficiency. The analysis begins with the diagnosis of the electrical installations, for which field visits, measurements of electrical parameters, power quality measurements and thermographic tests were carried out.

The description of the current situation of the electrical system of the company is very important, for which it was contrasted with the current norms UNE 12464-1 and ARCONEL that correspond to the fulfillment of the lighting levels and energy quality respectively. Subsequently, the thermographic analysis was carried out based on the specifications of the ANSI / NETA ATS-2009 standard, in order to find possible anomalies such as loose contacts and overloads.

Once the system had been diagnosed and the possible measures had been identified, the technical-economic analysis of the investments to be made was carried out, in order to calculate the NPV and IRR indicators that will help to determine the feasibility of the investment.
