T&D Buyer's Guide

Did you know 1 out of every 200 transformers experiences failure each year? The safety and cost risks of an unexpected failure can be catastrophic. Dynamic Ratings products and services provide real-time data to help you make smart asset management decisions. Online monitors give you the confidence to extend the life of existing assets using real-time data. Monitors evaluate the equipment in your substation (transformers, circuit breakers, switchgear, and more) and measure their performance to make sure everything is working properly. If something looks out of place, an alarm will notify you of the problem. This information allows utilities to optimize maintenance plans and the performance of their assets to changing system requirements. Learn how we can help at www.dynamicratings.com.
