A New Approach to High Voltage Insulation System Testing

Speed is the driving force of successful fault prevention. Early detection of insulation deterioration is key for avoiding asset failure, associated unplanned outages, and physical damage to infrastructure. The traditional testing approaches most teams rely on inhibit quick diagnosis of insulation...

Advancements in Dissolved Gas Analysis: NEI & Gassing Events

One of the most important steps when looking at DGA data is to decide whether the data support the existence of a fault that is actively breaking down the insulation before you try to use a triangle, pentagon, or gas ratio method to identify a fault type. Otherwise, you are diagnosing random...

Reducing Nuisance Alarm Rates from On-Site Security Systems

The physical security of electrical generation, transmission, and distribution sites is critical. The potential risks of a security failure are clear: disruption to service, damage to equipment, and intruder fatalities.
To prevent costly incidents and meet the National Electrical Reliability Commission’s Critical Infrastructure Protection regulations (NERC CIP-014), electrical utilities need reliable, cost-effective physical security solutions. For these solutions to be a success, they must:

Reliably detect and deter would-be intruders.
Enhance intrusion assessment and response...
