Globally health and safety regulators who investigate catastrophic electrical incidences have recognised that pressure to avoid power shutdowns results in the neglect and deterioration of key electrical infrastructure like main switchboards and the critical components contained within them.
Over time this neglect can cause significant failures due to switchgear contact corrosion, loose busbar connections and blocked air ventilation, inevitably leading to overheating, fire hazards and arc flash incidents.
Many end user sites are unaware of the risk posed to their people and the financial exposure they face due to equipment failure. During this insightful webinar, experts from the NHP Service team will discuss:
- Importance of critical switchgear and power quality equipment servicing
- How to understand manufacturers servicing recommendations and how this can be interpreted by insurance companies possibly impacting a claim.
- New technologies to improve switchgear service life and improve safety for electrical contractors working on site
- Air circuit breaker retrofitting and what does this mean for AS/NZS61439 compliance.
- Review of recent catastrophic Australian electrical switchgear failure case studies.
- What does a sustainable switchgear maintenance program look like for an end user.
