PROJECT DETAILS
- Research Name Nanostructured Materials
- Client Wind Farm Substation
- Category Particle Count
- Location India
Challenge
Client reported increasing noise and heat in the transformer but no oil leakage.
Findings:
Particle count > ISO 22/20/17, Analysis showed metallic particles, suggesting wear from moving parts or arcing
Action Taken:
Transformer opened and mechanical inspection revealed dislocated tap changer contact.
Outcome:
Timely repair prevented a short circuit and minimized downtime.
