Description
Summary:The title of this project is 'Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) of transformer utilising Infrared Thermography (IRT) and Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA)'. Thermography technique is applied to the external parts of the transformer, such as housing, bushing/ termination and cooling system. While DGA is used to predict the condition of the transformer through the study of the resultant dissolved gas from oil sample taken. The primary objectives are to provide an early detection of defect and addressed it before they lead to major breakdown. This paper will also prove that condition monitoring or predictive maintenance is very beneficial compared to preventive maintenance in terms of increasing equipment availability, reduced maintenance cost and more efficient repair.
