Condition Monitoring Of Power System Equipment

Course Schedule

Condition Monitoring Of Power System Equipment

Faced with increased demands and growing competition, many utilities and industries are seeking to maximize the value of their existing assets by leveraging new technologies to optimize Operations and Maintenance activities. One of the most successful maintenance strategies is a conditioned-based approach which utilizes data collected from periodic inspections, testing and predictive maintenance technologies to determine the optimum maintenance requirements. Contrary to the traditional time-based maintenance approach, Condition-based Maintenance is a process, which utilizes monitoring and diagnostic data to drive the maintenance decision process.

This course is designed to enable participants to:

  • Understand typical failure modes associated with Cables, Switchgears and Transformers.
  • Understand typically used on- and off- line diagnostic tests for condition monitoring of Cables, Switchgears and Transformers.
  • Understand the interrelationships of various on- and off- line diagnostic tests.
  • Understand the interpretation of test results.
