BPL Global has added power transformer bushing monitoring to its portfolio of solutions for electric utilities. BPL Global's Serveron subsidiary, a leader in transformer on-line monitoring, now offers ...

The new Transformer Bushing Monitor (TBM) system from Serveron, a BPL Global company, permits live power factor testing with no downtime, equipment removal, or off-line tests that fall short of ...

I’m sure many readers would question why anyone would want to perform a relatively expensive insulation power factor test on an inexpensive transformer. Typically, if any testing is done, it will be ...

Achieves 1% accuracy for CTs up to 8000 amps, ensuring precise metering and billing with traceable, reliable results. By automating the testing process and integrating real-time data management, the ...

The addition of flexural stiffeners on the transformer cover plates was explored as a means to stiffen the base of the bushings and mitigate their seismic vulnerability. Numerical and experimental ...

Keeping the nation’s lights on is no small job. The grid we take for granted involves large, expensive equipment, most notably power transformers. If one goes down, it can take more than a year to ...

Solid-state ac supplies replace motor-generator and tap-changing transformers to offer the same tests at the push of a button • Solid-state ac-power sources combine the variable-frequency and ...

Resin high-voltage insulators with a composite casing can mitigate explosion, fire and leakage in high power transformers, according to Paolo Cardano, transformer expert at power component maker ...
