Solutions / Commissioning & Maintenance

Same team that built it,
services it

Forte's field service team commissions every system we build and carries out the maintenance afterwards. The engineers who designed and manufactured the panels are the ones who service them.

Commissioning includes a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) before shipment and a Site Acceptance Test (SAT) on site. Power quality is measured before and after with HIOKI Class A analysers.
