Failure of your high-voltage switchgear and cables could cost millions in repairs, replacements and loss of production due to downtime. However, most failures don’t happen in a flash – performance of the high voltage system is usually unaffected until a catastrophic failure occurs.
By monitoring your cables and switchgear, our Astute® HV Monitoring service can alert you to suspicious spikes in partial discharge (PD) and pinpoint which parts of your HV system should be investigated.
Installation of our Astute HV Monitoring equipment requires no downtime whatsoever. Most of our monitoring devices simply clip around existing cable earths or fit on the outside of switchgear boxes.
The potential cost savings are immense, compared with the costs of asset failure in a typical HV system, be that public or private.
