Electric Utility Reliability Live Online Forum
Electrical Substation Technologies Live Online Forum April 2025
Electricity Today T&D Live Online Forums
Live Online Event Hosted By Electricity Today T&D Magazine.
The focus of our Electrical Substation Live Online Forum will be substation reliability, security and stability. The changing environment in the energy sector creates a need for substation system operators to be able to robustly evaluate the impact that possible measures have on the dependability of supply of their networks. Electrical substations are is considered an important part of the power grid, and this has gained significant focus for electrical power system planners and operators to improve reliability. Our FREE Live Online Forum is a great way to learn from leading Electrical Substation professionals who are speaking on subjects about current or future technologies for reliable power substations.
Agenda
45 minutes presentation includes 10 minutes of Q&A.
1:00 pm - 1:45 pm
Critter Guard
It's NOT if, but WHEN!
Squirrels and other "critters" are the #1 cause of preventable power outages for utilities. Chances are – it will happen to you. This presentation will explore Critter Guard's approach to preventing these animal outages.
1:45 pm - 2:30 pm
PSI (T&R Test Equipment)
The presentation is a brief introduction to T&R Test Equipment Ltd, followed by a look at relays and how they fit into a protection scheme and how they are tested with a look at a flexible test solution from T&R Test Equipment Ltd in the form of the New 50ADM-P Relay SCITS Test set.How the new tester is an ideal solution for relay testing both Mechanical and Digital Relays.
2:30 pm - 3:15 pm
Zensol
Methodology for Electrical Substation Maintenance Programs
3:15 pm - 4:00 pm
SDT Ultrasound Solutions
Ultrasound for Reliable Electrical Systems
Ultrasound technology plays a critical role in the early detection of electrical faults that threaten system reliability, safety, and uptime. This presentation explores how airborne and structure-borne ultrasound can be used to identify partial discharge phenomena—corona, tracking, and arcing—long before they evolve into costly or catastrophic failures. Attendees will learn how ultrasound complements infrared inspections, enhances preventive maintenance workflows, and provides a safe, non-intrusive method to monitor energized equipment in real time.
