Contents
This new edition explores methods for detecting signs of equipment aging, as well as techniques for protection of electrical apparatus against potential damage. Electrical and mechanical engineers, in addition to maintenance personnel, will greatly benefit from this material. Among all areas presented in the book, in distribution and transmission equipment, as well as in generating renewable energy field, properly maintained lubrication is one of the major areas responsible for extended useful life of electrical apparatus. The newest edition allows the reader to consider various forms and causes of possible lubrication failures, learn what techniques and materials are available on a global scale to extend the life of the equipment, and the importance of using the correct product for a specific part of the equipment. This revision covers the review and analysis of aging issues for transmission and distribution equipment, and the content has been extended to include the field of renewable energy generation power equipment.
Analyzes the factors that cause and accelerate the aging of electrical equipment
Introduces multiple techniques and procedures to help reduce the impact of deterioration and aging in order to extend equipment life.
Contains numerous case studies from around the world.
Provides practical descriptions of reliable maintenance techniques that are useful in industrial applications.
