Ambitious in our work

Verkís owns the system analysis software DigSilent Power Factory and can take on the task of calculating the setting values of protective relays in combined systems, as well as analysing various incidents that may occur in the system.

Verkís also has a testing device from OMICRON, which is specially designed for testing defense equipment (relay protection.) The use of the testing device is primarily focused on the defense equipment of generators and transformers on the one hand, and distribution systems at medium voltage on the other. The testing device can also be used for testing measuring equipment and information for the control system.

Our experts are leading in Iceland when it comes to defense equipment for electrical systems. We pride ourselves on delivering good and accurate work with the needs of the buyer in mind. In this way, not only do we achieve success, but also our customers. This is our motto.

We enter every project with the needs of the buyer in mind and take pride in delivering good and accurate work.

Control and Protection Systems

Verkís supports the development and operation of control and protection systems through integrated engineering and technical expertise. Our specialists help optimise system performance, improve network reliability, and deliver robust automation, monitoring, and protection solutions that support the safe, secure, and efficient operation of electrical power systems.


We develop design criteria and system architectures for control and protection systems, helping ensure reliable operation, effective fault management, and compliance with technical standards.


We select appropriate equipment and materials, prepare tender documentation, and support procurement activities to help deliver robust, compliant, and reliable control and protection solutions.


We develop selectivity schemes and integrate protection, control, and automation components to ensure coordinated fault response, minimise disruptions, and enhance the reliability of electrical power systems.


We design and implement interfaces between control, protection, automation, and third-party systems to ensure secure communication, reliable data exchange, and effective system-wide operation.


We analyse network conditions and fault scenarios to establish optimal protection settings that ensure coordinated fault clearing, equipment protection, and stable system operation.


We use advanced testing equipment to verify protection settings, control functions, communication interfaces, and system performance, helping ensure safe, reliable, and coordinated operation of electrical power systems.


We use advanced testing equipment to assess protection devices, control systems, and communication functions, helping ensure reliable operation, maintain protection integrity, and support long-term system performance.
