Our Substation Maintenance Training course is a practical, vendor-neutral guide to inspecting, testing and maintaining the equipment that keeps substations in service. It covers disconnect switches, circuit breakers, switchgear, power transformers, instrument transformers, ground grids, station batteries and relays.
This 12-hour, instructor-led course is for engineers, technicians and maintenance personnel who plan, perform or review substation maintenance. You will learn what each test reveals, how to interpret the results and how to build a maintenance program that prevents failures before they happen.
Substation equipment often runs for decades with little attention until something fails. A failed breaker, transformer or battery can cause long outages, costly emergency repairs and serious hazards to workers. Most of these failures show warning signs long before they occur, if the right tests are performed and understood.
Maintenance expectations are also rising. NFPA 70B is now a standard rather than a recommended practice, and owners are moving from fixed time-based schedules to condition-based maintenance driven by test data. Many maintenance teams are losing experienced staff and need new personnel to become productive quickly.
This course connects test procedures with sound maintenance decisions. You will learn which tests to perform, what normal and abnormal results look like, and when to repair, monitor or replace equipment.
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
You will leave able to plan maintenance, interpret test results and make confident repair, monitor or replace decisions.
The course is vendor-neutral and based on real maintenance practice in utility and industrial substations. Each module ties equipment construction and failure modes to the tests that detect them.
Worked examples use actual test results, including breaker timing traces, transformer power factor data, DGA results and ground test readings. Live polls and discussion keep participants engaged and let the instructor focus on the equipment your team maintains.
