Our specialists keep track of all relevant factors in the technical assessment of a transformer. This also includes a mechanical and electrical inspection as well as the analysis of the oil used. The resulting findings are evaluated following our standardized assessment methodology. The customer thus receives a meaningful diagnostics report on the actual condition of its transformer including a recommendation for action. Maintenance measures can then be derived from this in order to ensure availability in the future. We are pleased to offer regular maintenance by our qualified specialists to cover these measures.
