Transformer Maintenance Best Practices

Transformers are long-life assets, but they require regular care to reach their 40+ year potential.

Maintenance Checklist

  1. Oil Analysis: Check for dissolved gases (DGA) and moisture.
  2. Bushings: Inspect for leaks or cracks.
  3. Differential Protection: Ensure the 87T relay is correctly calibrated.

Routine testing with devices like the SEL-487E can detect internal faults before they lead to catastrophic failure.
