Why Projects Fail Commissioning

Wiring Errors

Reversed polarity, missed home runs, and incorrect 0-10V wiring are the most common reasons a commissioning agent walks off the job.

Sensor Placement

Wrong mounting height, incorrect lens selection, and coverage gaps cause failures that take days to diagnose and fix.

No Pre-Check

Most punch list items are avoidable. Without a QA walkthrough before commissioning, small mistakes become expensive callbacks.
