Transformer health in the real world
Maximizing transformer reliability on a budget
 
Many companies are seeing significant reductions in maintenance budgets and expert resources, as well as new, tougher regulatory requirements and higher expectations from shareholders. This new reality requires a fresh approach to transformer management – instead of maintaining the status quo, different methodologies must be implemented. The answer is the much more efficient approach of condition-based maintenance. With this method, the units that need maintenance are prioritized based on risk and importance, and money is spent where it is needed most.

Rapid grid restoration
Prepare your substation
There’s a new grid resiliency initiative helping utilities restore their bulk power system in the event of a major power disturbance. It helps utilities assess, harden and monitor large power transformers in preparation for a physical attack or natural disaster, as well as rapidly repair and replace them following an event.
 
On Oct 16, discover physical security strategies to better protect substations. On Oct 28, learn rapid repair and replacement tactics to reduce outage duration.
