The new Transformer Bushing Monitor (TBM) system from Serveron, a BPL Global company, permits live power factor testing with no downtime, equipment removal, or off-line tests that fall short of ...

Why is understanding high-voltage oil-filled transformer bushings so critical? High-voltage power transformers are an essential component of our nation's electric grid infrastructure. Bushings are the ...

If you have power factor correction capacitors, should you skip insulation power factor testing on your transformers? The answer is "no." Those PF capacitors have no bearing on the question. This is a ...

Solid-state ac supplies replace motor-generator and tap-changing transformers to offer the same tests at the push of a button • Solid-state ac-power sources combine the variable-frequency and ...

Omicron has developed a portable three-phase test system that supports all common electrical tests on power transformers. Weighing just 20kg, Testrano 600 is suitable for routine and diagnostic ...

Plant performance measurement often stops at the point where power enters the plant switchyard. Yet minor transformer failures can have devastating impact on plant performance and system reliability.

Motors and generators are critical components of electrical systems. They are used to automate numerous industrial processes, circulate liquids for cooling and lubrication purposes, and generate ...

Several switching-converter topologies exist for power converters that operate from the ac mains and must maintain a power factor of 0.9 or better. One topology is a boost converter with a control ...
