Infrared imaging can be used to see connection problems outside of transformers, but if there is a problem inside the transformer, and oil testing shows temperatures have reached critical levels, IR cannot be used to tell where the problem is or how severe it is. Partial Discharge (PD) Testing can define the problem. Jon will explain how he uses PD testing along with ofther technologies to help utility companies maintain transformers that are 40+ years old.You can view a UI webinar titled “Advanced Transformer Condition Assessment Webinar by ElectricIR” by clicking the link below… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZztoYW5rb8
