Advances in Diagnostic Analysis, Strategic Management, and Proactive Maintenance of Electrical Equipment (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783725867400)

The reliability and safety of modern power systems depend heavily on the optimal performance of electrical equipment. As energy networks become increasingly complex due to the integration of renewable sources and smart grid technologies, the strategies that are used to manage these assets must evolve. This Reprint compiles cutting-edge research and practical case studies dedicated to the lifecycle management of critical power infrastructure. The collected works explore sophisticated diagnostic techniques, including non-invasive sensing, signal processing, and AI-driven fault detection. The authors address the shift from traditional time-based maintenance to proactive, condition-based strategies that utilize real-time data to predict failures before they occur. Key topics include the monitoring of power transformers, switch, cables, and rotating machines, as well as the economic and strategic frameworks that are required to implement these advanced maintenance protocols. By integrating physical analysis with data-driven decision-making, this Reprint offers a comprehensive overview of how utilities and industries can enhance system resilience, extend equipment lifespan, and reduce operational costs. It serves as a vital resource for engineers, researchers, and asset managers aiming to navigate the technical challenges of the modern energy landscape.
