Questions & answers
What does an ISO 55001 gap analysis involve?
“An ISO 55001 gap analysis reviews your current asset management policies, strategies, processes and asset data against the requirements of BS ISO 55001:2014, the international standard for asset management. We identify where your arrangements fall short, explain the practical implications for your network, and provide prioritised recommendations so you can plan improvements towards alignment or certification.”
Which electrical assets can Threepwood help us manage?
“We cover the full range of electricity network assets, including cables, overhead lines, switchgear, transformers, protection relays, earthing systems and substations for DNO, industrial and renewable applications. We also provide arc flash and internal arc guidance, along with legal assessment and due diligence support.”
Can you develop asset management policies for our organisation?
“Yes. We develop generic policies such as asset management, asset risk management, audit and review, asset failure management, spares management and asset information policies.”
Do you support asset management due diligence?
“We provide electrical infrastructure asset management due diligence from design to end of life. This includes assessing how your assets are managed, reviewing the supporting documentation and identifying risks, so you can make informed investment and operational decisions about your electricity network.”
Can you review our electrical safety rules?
“Yes. We review and revise electrical safety rules and help you develop safe systems of work and operational practices.”
Do you carry out arc flash hazard studies?
“We provide arc flash hazard management, including arc flash hazard studies and risk assessments. These identify where arc flash risk arises on your network and support proportionate controls that reduce the risk to staff working on or near electrical equipment.”
Can Threepwood audit our safety management system?
“We offer independent reviews of your safety management processes and procedures, including contractor safety management, as well as ISO 45001 audits and gap analysis. An independent view helps confirm your arrangements reduce safety risks to acceptable levels and highlights where improvements are needed.”
Do you investigate electrical accidents and equipment failures?
“Yes. We provide an independent and structured approach to electrical accident investigations and equipment failure investigations, helping you establish root causes, learn lessons and strengthen your safety management systems and operational practices.”
Can you help with SF6 gas and insulating oil management?
“We advise on the management of SF6 gas and insulating oil, helping you put appropriate policies and practices in place for handling, monitoring and managing these materials safely across your electrical assets.”
What does a network standards compliance review involve?
“We review your network planning and design decisions against national standards, interpret and clarify network standards requirements, and where standards are not clear we help establish the common UK and Ireland approach. This gives network operators confidence that their decisions stand up to scrutiny.”
Which network standards does Threepwood work with?
“Our consultants support a number of key DCODE working groups, including EREC P2, EREC P28, EREC P29 and EREC G5, and we have assisted in the development and revision of numerous key standards covering network related requirements, including power quality standards.”
Can you assess low carbon technology connections for compliance?
“Yes. Threepwood is particularly known for network compliance of low carbon technology connections on HV and LV networks.”
What is Networks Discovery?
“Networks Discovery is our innovation and research work, which analyses and redefines how networks are assessed.”
Do you support cost benefit analysis for network decisions?
“Yes. We support cost benefit analysis, benchmarking against industry good practice, network security and supporting socio-economic analysis, and modelling of network complexities.”
What types of technical documentation do you produce?
“We develop and maintain policies, standards, specifications and procedures for electricity network equipment, covering switchgear, protection, transformers, cables, overhead lines, substations and earthing, and network planning and operations. Everything is structured for easy navigation and compliance within a well organised technical library.”
Do you write functional or prescriptive documents?
“Both. Functional documents focus on outcomes, while prescriptive documents ensure consistency and compliance.”
How do you manage document review and feedback?
“We collaborate with clients using tools such as SharePoint and Microsoft Teams to gather feedback and refine content through structured review cycles. This keeps stakeholders involved throughout authoring and means the final document reflects both engineering accuracy and operational reality.”
Can you build and maintain a technical document library for us?
“Yes. We build and maintain comprehensive technical libraries of engineering documents, organising policies, standards and procedures so they are easy to navigate and keep compliant.”
What training courses does Threepwood offer?
“Our standard off the shelf courses include overhead line design, renewable substation design, transformers, switchgear and harmonics. All are targeted at the electrical infrastructure industry and delivered by consultants with practical experience of the equipment and standards they teach.”
Can you deliver bespoke training for our team?
“Yes. Alongside our standard courses we deliver bespoke training built around your organisation's unique needs, provided the subject falls within our areas of expertise.”
Who is Threepwood's training aimed at?
“Our training is targeted at the electrical infrastructure industry. It suits engineers and technical staff who work with power systems and assets such as overhead lines, substations, transformers and switchgear, whether they are building foundational knowledge or deepening expertise in a specific asset class.”
