Asset management, maintenance and remaining life of high and extra high voltage cables course

Two-day training course that deals with the asset management of (extra) high voltage power cables in general and the maintenance, condition and the remaining life of (E)HV power cables and their accessories

Description:

Performing the right maintenance at the right time and, if necessary, replacing components, is essential for making optimal use of your operating resources. Applying the most suitable type of maintenance in the correct proportion requires proper attention and knowledge. The effectiveness and efficiency of the measures taken serve as the barometer. The approach differs for each type of business and is in fact driven by the business strategy.

This course makes use of the information consolidated about maintenance and residual life in the CIGRE Technical Brochures 279 and 358.

This in-depth practical two-day training course is part of a series of courses on power cables, consisting of a general three-day course, Power cables in general (4 – 6 June 2012) and several in-depth two-day courses, providing more detailed information on the following topics: 
>Ampacity and engineering aspects of power cables
  (7 & 8 June 2012) 
>Ageing, quality assurance, testing, diagnostics and failures of
   power cables (29 & 30 October 2012) 
>Asset management, maintenance and remaining life of MV cables
  (31 October & 1 November 2012) 
>Asset management, maintenance and remaining life of HV and
  EHV cables
