  • Transformer oil re-refining, degassing and dehydrating
  • Assembly and vacuum oil filling of new transformers
  • Tap changer services
  • Internal visual inspections, reconditioning and modifications for transformers and circuit breakers
  • Leak repairs and re-gasketing of electrical apparatus
  • Painting of electrical equipment (performed at the customer’s site)
  • Disassembly and transportation of equipment removed from service
  • Disposal

LV-HV Transformers

  • Electrical testing, including power factor, transformer turns ratio, insulation resistance, winding resistance, SFRA, CTs, leakage reactance, oil dielectric and alarm testing
  • Internal inspections and repairs
  • Re-gasketing
  • Replacement of pumps, fans, coolers and radiator assemblies
  • Cleaning or replacement of bushings and insulators
  • Load tap changer servicing
  • Assembly and disassembly
  • Vacuum oil processing and dry-out

Low Voltage Circuit Breakers

  • Upgrades to electronic trip units
  • Burnishing and adjusting contacts
  • Cleaning cubicles

Oil Analysis

As oil filled electrical apparatuses age, gaseous and liquid contaminants become dissolved in the dielectric fluid which lead to shortened life cycles or potential failures unless detected and treated early. Analyzing dielectric fluid is the cornerstone of preventive maintenance. Transformer oil is typically sampled and analyzed annually for a track record of its performance. Annual tests show you the degradation of your unit and how it’s changed year over year. These changes mainly occur as a result of aging, overheating, leaks or other performance issues.

Test Report & Analysis

After the completion of our testing, a report is compiled and submitted to our customers. The report will present the actual data taken at the customer’s site and the results of any calculated values. Test results will be compared to manufacturers’ specifications and/or performance standards set by IEEE, NETA and NEMA. Results out of specification will be highlighted and maintenance recommendations presented. In many cases, testing identifies the need for simple repairs and adjustments that preclude costly repairs and downtime in the future.

Disposal

Recycling and removal of old or failed equipment. When disposed equipment and material are discarded it’s done according to appropriate EPA disposal/recycling regulations.
