The book stresses the importance of scrutinizing the condition of transformer insulation which may fail under present day conditions of intensive use with the resulting degradation of dielectric properties causing functional failure of the transformer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe text shows the reader how to overcome the key challenges facing today’s maintenance policies, namely:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe selection of appropriate techniques for dealing with each type of failure process accounting for the needs of plant owners, plant users and wider society; and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCost-efficiency and durability of effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany of the failure-management methods presented rely on the fact that most failures give warning when they are imminent. These potential failures give rise to identifiable physical conditions and the novel approaches described detect them so that action can be taken to avoid degeneration into full-blown functional failure. This “on-condition” maintenance means that equipment can be left in service as long as a specified set of performance standards continue to be met, avoiding the costly downtime imposed by routine and perhaps unnecessary maintenance but without risking equally expensive failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRecent Trends in the Condition Monitoring of Transformers\u003c\/i\u003e will be of considerable interest to both academic researchers in power systems and to engineers working in the power generation and distribution industry showing how new and more efficient methods of fault diagnosis and condition management can increase transformer efficiency and cut costs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2013-11-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781447155492\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4471-5550-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 280\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47662140555404,"sku":"9781447155492","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781447155492.jpg?v=1776438282","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781447155492","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
