4 Types of Maintenance Programs
Maintenance is the backbone in any facility.
What is maintenance and why is it performed?
Ideally, maintenance is performed to keep equipment and systems running efficiently for at least the design life of the component(s).
What is the design life of electrical equipment such as breakers and transformers, once they are installed, energized, and under load? Electrical Equipment automatically start a normal deterioration process. What is this normal process? Can it be expedited with other environmental conditions, lack of maintenance, improper maintenance, and a run to failure culture? Absolutely. The design life of all electrical equipment requires maintenance. How much? How often? That’s the easy part.
We all take preventive health measures, to some degree, especially when we reach certain ages in our life, to help warn us and to ensure our sustainability, and longevity. In the same way, your electrical distribution system should have a wellness check up.
