How CERN research lab uses innovative oil-filled transformer monitoring to reduce operational risks

Credit to Author: Philippe Arsonneau| Date: Mon, 04 Sep 2023 13:04:00 +0000

As I’ve mentioned previously, oil-filled transformer downtime seriously impacts multiple domains, from electrical generation to consumers. CERN, the famous European Organization for Nuclear Research, is no exception. Transformer monitoring is a priority, and they need help to analyze the health of their aging transformers, optimize…

Thinking Beyond First Costs When Specifying Cast Resin Transformers

Credit to Author: Michel Sacotte| Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2018 13:00:21 +0000

When it comes to specifying cast resin transformers the capital expenditure, or CAPEX, is often the primary – or only – consideration. However, for owners, the operational expenditures (OPEX) over… Read more »
