White paper: dielectric response analysis and PD testing of HV bushings downloadweblink
The dielectric breakdown of HV bushings is one of the most frequent failure causes for power transformers. This white paper from Omicron Electronics discusses new diagnostic methods to assess the dielectric condition, including the analysis of the dielectric response and partial-discharge (PD) measurements, and includes several case studies. Practical examples illustrate the importance of capacitance, dissipation factor and particularly dielectric response measurements on HV bushings.
Mayr Transmissions offers torque-measuring coupling suitable for condition monitoring weblink
Mayr Transmissions has introduced the ROBA-DSM torque-measuring shaft coupling for applications such as test stand construction, serial machines and condition monitoring. The system enables the easy condition monitoring of machines and systems and, using the data collected by the coupling, the use of machines can be optimised.
Omicron set to co-host UK Transformer Diagnostics Conference and Workshop weblink

White paper: monitoring of 420kV XLPE cable system in underground tunnel downloadweblink
This paper from Omicron deals with the continuous monitoring of the components of a 400kV XLPE cable system placed in an underground tunnel in south London. An advanced concept to assess and monitor the condition of the cable system’s insulation is described. Partial discharges are continuously monitored at all joints and terminations, and at the same time the system measures oil pressure in 400kV terminations and monitors the condition of all sheath voltage limiters located in the ...
