Plant Installation
For packaged CHP, the major installed item is the ‘box’. However, the installation programme may also include:
- Removal of redundant equipment.
- Relocation of retained equipment.
- Preparation of CHP foundations.
- Preparation of access routes.
- Interconnection to a gas supply.
- Interconnection to electrical services.
- Interconnection to heat services.
- Installation of flue systems.
- Installation of heat rejection equipment.
During installation, appropriate note must be taken of Health and Safety issues, particularly:
- Construction (Design and Management) Regulations.
- Electricity at Work Regulations.
- Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations.
- Noise at Work Regulations.
- Confined Space Regulations.
A reputable supplier/installer will explain the installation process and confirm that it is acceptable to the client. The supplier, like the client, wants the process to be swift and trouble-free.
