Description (excerpt):

Substations are a key part of every utility’s infrastructure, but their quiet dependability makes them a vulnerable part of the power grid. They work until they don’t. When a utility only services substations after a fault or outage, they should expect long, slow, and expensive repairs along with frustrated rate payers.

Regular assessment and preventative maintenance is key to substation resilience, and can ensure that the substations your customers count on keep running with no interruptions. Ensuring that substations and other transmission infrastructure are properly maintained is key to reduced total cost of ownership and customer value creation.
