Medium Voltage Project, Acceptance and Approval Services
MV project, acceptance and approval: distributor design, short-circuit studies, permit files, provisional acceptance and installation approval.
Medium voltage project, acceptance and approval services manage the engineering-documentation and administrative process a MV investment must pass to exist officially: distributor-approved design, calculation reports, application-permit files, inspection-provisional acceptance and operating licence steps. In Türkiye an MV facility is legally and technically "in service" not by being built on site, but by being designed, approved and completing its conformity and acceptance process. Therefore the document chain is a contracting duty as critical as installation — a missing approval is a risk spread from insurance claims to power cuts.
Project Engineering
- Turnkey design: Load analysis-capacity plan, short-circuit (maximum-minimum with motor contributions), protection coordination (selectivity and time-time grading), earthing-potential control (earthing) and cable ampacity-voltage-drop calculations; single-line and section drawings aligned with distribution-area criteria (measurement systems).
- Legal basis: The Unlicensed Electricity Generation Regulation (connection), the Acceptance of Electrical Facilities Regulation and Internal Electrical Installations duties; sworn signatures and chamber professional audit (MMO).
- EPDK-distributor: Connection agreement reference, substation-acceptance permits and reactive-metering compatibility control.
- Safety file: EKA duties of the MV facility, arc-flash study (PPE category, operation instruction and authority list) and fire scenario.
Acceptance and Certification Process
The stepwise administrative flow opens four gates: (1) Project approval — distributor review application with revision loops; (2) Construction-facility permits — road excavation (municipality-highways) and wayleave (easement) rights; (3) Inspection — authorised inspection body examination verifying the facility against project and regulation with field measurement-test evidence; (4) Provisional acceptance — installation acceptance record, operating licence and meter activation into commercial operation. Our role is to carry this process with the engineering file and match it to the test-commissioning output. Detailed field craft is defined in our cable and termination services.
Follow-up and Outcome
After acceptance: periodic inspection duties (periodic control), relay-log-telemetry tracking, currency of revision projects and archive integrity for insurance expertise. A well managed project-acceptance-approval file is the technical passport of the facility; it closes the investor's legal, financial and operational risk.

Advisory Role
The project-acceptance-approval process demands multi-party coordination: investor, EPC contractor, distributor, inspection body, municipality and insurance expert all speak on one file. In a loosely run file, revision loops lose months; an engineering team working with a specification-compliance checklist markedly raises the first-pass approval rate. KYF Test offers field test infrastructure and this administrative experience under one roof — file and measurement verify each other.
FAQ on MV Project Acceptance and Approval
In Türkiye an MV facility enters service legally and technically not by being built on site, but by being constructed to the approved project and completing inspection-provisional acceptance-licence steps. The document chain is as critical as installation: a missing approval is a risk set spreading from insurance claims to power cuts, administrative fines and accident investigation. File management is therefore an inseparable contracting item.
Load analysis-capacity plan, short-circuit (maximum-minimum with motor contributions), protection coordination-selectivity (time-time grading), earthing-potential control (earthing), cable ampacity-voltage drop studies and measurement system (TDMS) compatibility. The output is single-line-section sheets aligned with the distribution area criteria, sworn signed projects and chamber professional audit approval.
Four gates run in order: (1) project approval — distributor application-review-revision loops and the connection agreement; (2) construction permits — road excavation (municipality-highways) and easement-wayleave documents; (3) inspection — the authorised body verifying conformity to project and regulation with field measurement-test evidence; (4) provisional acceptance and operating licence — commercial operation with meter activation. The test-commissioning output matches this file.
Periodic examination-inspection duties (periodic inspection), relay-log-telemetry tracking, currency of revision projects (as-built preservation) and archive integrity for insurance expertise. Change-investment projects do not restart the file but grow it through revision loops; this discipline raises the first-pass approval rate and the audit defence.
