Well maintained equipment lasts longer and costs less to own and operate with proper maintenance.
Well maintained equipment is safer to operate.
Most electrical fires are caused by un-maintained equipment and poor over current protection.
Good electrical maintenance proves to be invaluable to the continuous operation of facilities for the following reasons:
Most older circuit breakers will fail in the closed position if not maintained. This can cause a fire since the circuit breaker will not open the circuit when a short circuit occurs. We perform proper cleaning, service and testing for all electrical equipment (120 Volt to 115,000 Volts).
Dirty high voltage equipment can permit "tracking" which can cause catastrophic failures. We exercise, lubricate, service and test circuit breakers for proper operation.
Proper maintenance of equipment protects against ground faults, shock hazards and fire.
High voltage cables can be tested to gage their condition using Very Low Frequency Test with Tangent Delta monitoring.
