Midland, Texas · Serving the Permian Basin

Permian Basin powerline construction and maintenance.

KTX Electric builds and maintains overhead and underground distribution systems and supports the protection, controls, and power quality work that keeps them operating.

Powerline contractor

Field-ready crews for West Texas systems.

From new line extensions to repairs and ongoing maintenance, KTX brings the crews, bucket trucks, digger derricks, testing equipment, and field experience required for demanding Permian Basin work.

Our powerline and electrical teams work together, reducing handoffs when a project also involves recloser controls, automation, SWDs, tank batteries, or water reclamation facilities.

Overhead distribution

Line extensions, pole setting and replacement, conductor installation, equipment installation, repairs, and maintenance.

Underground distribution

Underground line construction, terminations, equipment installation, troubleshooting, and field coordination.

Protection and controls

Recloser programming, relay testing, trip and close verification, sequence checks, and commissioning support.

Power quality

Harmonic analysis and mitigation, capacitor systems, power-factor correction, voltage-regulator programming, and data logging.

Construction contractor—not an engineering firm. KTX provides field planning, routing support, material coordination, construction, testing, commissioning, and maintenance from customer-provided or engineer-approved requirements.

Recloser and relay testing

Test the protection before the fault does.

KTX uses the Megger SMRT46 multi-phase relay test system with RTMS software for controlled, repeatable secondary-injection testing of protective relays and electronically controlled reclosers.

SMRT46-30P0F2A0S1

Multi-phase injection

Three current channels and four voltage channels support realistic phase and ground fault simulations.

Pickup and timing

Verify pickup values, operating time, phase and ground overcurrent elements, and time-current curves.

Reclosing sequences

Check trip, close, automatic reclosing, lockout, status inputs, outputs, and programmed sequence logic.

Directional and dynamic tests

Evaluate directional overcurrent elements and simulate changing fault conditions across synchronized channels.

Settings verification

Confirm programmed settings, relay logic, event records, sequence-of-events data, and control operation.

Documented results

Create repeatable test plans and time-stamped reports for commissioning, maintenance, and customer records.
