UHF or ultra high frequency testing is one of the most powerful and versatile methods for partial discharge detection in open air switchyards. By using the UHF receiver, the UltraTEV Plus 2 (UTP2) is able to detect partial discharge sources in the UHF band. UHF testing can be utilized as a first pass safety tool … Read more
Imagine this: A new hyper-scale data center is built in rural New Jersey. It has more than 100 25 KV cables. Six months into operation, a cable termination fails catastrophically, and the forensic investigation determines that termination workmanship was lacking. Partial discharge caused tracking, and the cable flashed over. But that’s not the nightmare scenario. … Read more
Why do I smell Ozone around switchgear? Anyone who has spent time in substations has probably noticed a metallic, chlorine-like smell every now and then. This smell is caused by ozone in the substation, but why is there ozone coming from switchgear, what is the significance, and what are the next steps? Ozone is one … Read more
High voltage electrical failures can be detrimental and often result in significant losses: Severe damages to assets and hefty repair costs Injury or trauma to operators working on-site or the general public Loss of revenue The good news is, the build-up leading to these failures often happen over time and can be predicted early. Most … Read more
The Australian energy market is fast-moving towards a carbon zero energy future with far greater use of renewable energy and Consumer Energy Resources (CERs) – solar power, electric vehicle, battery storage, etc. This changes the way we generate and use energy, impacting the power flows through our Low Voltage (LV) networks and puts greater pressure … Read more
