3 Steps To Monitor Critical Electrical Assets

Electric utilities strive to improve reliability in the face of challenges such as fewer operators, aging assets and increased cycling. A critical asset failure can result in the forced outage of power generation, transmission or distribution leading to lost production, environmental issues, litigation arising from injuries or fatalities, and repairing and/or replacing the damaged asset, all of which can amount to millions of dollars of associated costs.

This white paper describes the three steps for deploying condition-based monitoring on critical electrical power assets which will lead to a proactive – and eventually, predictive – maintenance strategy
