Industry Sectors We Serve

Confidence in performance, safety and long‑term reliability

The energy sector is evolving rapidlyfrom renewable generation and energy storage through to hydrogen, grid modernisation and offshore infrastructure. Equipment must operate safely and reliably in some of the most demanding environments on earth, often for decades with minimal intervention. 

Resonate Testing delivers independent, ISO/IEC 17025accredited environmental and mechanical testing services to support qualification, verification and assurance of components, assemblies and systems used across the energy sector. 

We help manufacturers, developers and operators demonstrate compliance, reduce technical risk and build confidence before deployment.

Supporting the Full Energy Lifecycle

Resonate Testing supports projects from early development through to deployment and inservice assurance: 

  • Design verification & development testing 
  • Qualification & type approval programmes 
  • Factory acceptance & audit support 
  • Failure investigation  

Our flexible approach allows test programmes to be tailored to projectspecific standards, site conditions and customer risk profiles. 

Environmental & Mechanical Testing Capabilities

Environmental Testing

We replicate realworld operational and climatic stresses faced by energysector equipment, including: 

  • Temperature extremes and thermal cycling 
  • Humidity and damp heat exposure 
  • Salt mist / salt spray (onshore & offshore environments) 
  • Water ingress and condensation stress 
  • Low pressure / altitude conditions 
  • Combined environmental stresses where required 

Typical applications include: 

  • Inverters and power electronics 
  • Control cabinets and enclosures 
  • Sensors, instrumentation and connectors 
  • Energy storage components including Battery modules and packs 
  • Offshore and coastal equipment 

Mechanical & Vibration Testing

Mechanical stresses are a critical consideration for rotating machinery, offshore structures and transportinstalled equipment. 

Resonate offers: 

  • Sinusoidal vibration testing 
  • Random vibration testing 
  • Mechanical shock testing 
  • Transport and handling simulation 

These services support: 

  • Design margin validation 
  • Transport survivability 
  • Structural integrity assessment 
  • Installation and operational robustness 

Combined Environment & Vibration

Where appropriate, we can apply simultaneous environmental and mechanical stresses to better reflect real operating conditions and accelerate confidence in system reliability.

Qualification vs Acceptance Testing

We support both formal qualification programmes and customerspecific acceptance testing, helping you apply the right level of testing at each stage: 

  • Qualification testing 
    Demonstrates suitability of a design to defined standards or operating profiles. 
  • Acceptance testing 
    Confirms manufacturing consistency, build quality or readiness for deployment. 

Our engineers work with you to ensure testing is fitforpurpose — robust enough to satisfy stakeholders without unnecessary cost or delay. 

Why Resonate Testing?

Independent & impartial 
As an independent test house, our results provide confidence to customers, regulators and auditors. 

ISO/IEC 17025 accredited 
Testing is performed under a UKASaccredited quality system, ensuring traceability, repeatability and technical credibility. 

Engineeringled approach 
Our team understands the practical realities of energysector equipment, enabling meaningful test profiles rather than checkbox compliance. 

Flexible and responsive 
We support both structured qualification programmes and fastturnaround investigative testing. 

Clear reporting 
Test reports are concise, defensible and suitable for customer submission, regulatory review or technical documentation.

FAQ

Can you support programmes calling DO-227A?

Yes. We support DO-227A test structures across cell, battery, and end-item levels.

Can you support DO-227B?

Yes. Where DO-227B is required, we align the programme and reporting to that revision.

Engage Resonate early. The earlier we see your requirement, the easier it is to build a clean, defensible test plan aligned to your customer and certification needs.
