KCL Engineering has successfully led Arc Flash Hazard studies for large government campuses, covering over 3 million square feet of infrastructure and more than 2,000 electrical points. These projects required expert knowledge of electrical safety laws, codes, and best practices to ensure compliance and operational reliability.



Iowa Capitol Complex

Arc Flash Analysis


A comprehensive Arc Flash study update, maintenance plan, and power distribution improvements were implemented for 16 state-owned buildings with 1,353 points. The team surveyed equipment, conducted infrared thermography, performed arc flash modeling in SKM PTW32, and provided a final report with risk assessments, maintenance plans, and updated diagrams. New arc flash labels were printed and installed.




Camp Dodge

Arc Flash Analysis


Arc Flash studies, maintenance planning, and power distribution improvements were completed for Camp Dodge’s 237 buildings and 891 points. The team conducted data collection, performed arc flash modeling in SKM PTW32, and delivered a final report with risk assessments, maintenance plans, and updated diagrams. New arc flash labels were printed and installed





Iowa Veterans Home

Arc Flash Analysis


An updated Arc Flash study, power distribution maintenance plan, and improvement recommendations were provided for the Iowa Veterans Home’s 675-point electrical system across nine buildings. The team surveyed equipment, conducted arc flash modeling in SKM PTW32, and delivered a final report with risk assessments, maintenance plans, and updated diagrams. Additional analysis identified steps to reduce incident energy for a safer environment.





US Air Force

Electrical Power System Studies


Power system studies were conducted at Andersen AFB, Wake Island Airfield, and Al Udeid AFB, with oversight of field verification and data collection from substations to facility service entrances. Collected data was used to update one-line diagrams, create distribution maps in AutoCAD, and develop an EasyPower model analyzing power flow, short circuit conditions, protective device coordination, and arc flash hazards. Each location received a detailed report outlining deficiencies and recommendations
