2022 Free Virtual Training Program

The Hitachi Energy team invites you to join us for a series of virtual training programs designed to maximize the return on investments (ROI) for your main substation assets to ensure high reliability, reduced life cycle costs, and optimized performance.

You can learn how Hitachi Energy solutions and services can help you save time and money throughout the life cycle of your equipment, from commissioning through life extension. You will also learn how to navigate the complexity of unprecedented challenges such as rising capital costs, material lead-time challenges, resource availability, and shortage of in-house experience.

This series of free virtual training will focus on transformers and high voltage equipment, their applications, and maintenance best practices.

Becoming knowledgeable about your substation equipment, especially transformers and high voltage breakers, can help you understand how to prevent failures, extend equipment life, reduce O&M costs, improve reliability and reduce your carbon footprint.

Course format

Training courses are 45 minutes followed by a 15-minute Q&A period offered in English only.

Certificates

Certificates of attendance will be offered to attendees upon completion.

Agenda

Schedule	Title	Why attend
Thurs. Aug 25 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Why transformers fail	Understanding why transformers fail is key to prevention.
Thurs. Sept 1 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Understanding transformer oil test results (DGA and physical)	Learn how to increase reliability with transformer oil test data.
Thurs. Sept 8 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	How to choose the right transformer drying process	Each drying method has its own and advantages and disadvantages. Making the right choice can extend the useful life of the transformer.
Thurs. Sept 15 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Diagnostics and conditioning of transformer bushings	In general, bushings from Hitachi Energy can be considered maintenance-free, however, inspection and service can lead to bushing diagnostics that identify signs of problems and prevent failures.
Thurs. Sept 22 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Transformer tap-changer maintenance practices	The regular inspection and maintenance of load tap changers protects against potential failures.
Thurs. Sept 29 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Transformer maintenance: When to repair vs replace	Repairing, refurbishing or reconditioning a transformer instead of replacing it can substantially reduce investment costs and provide a faster turnaround than buying a new transformer.
Thurs. Oct 6 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Overview of high voltage circuit breaker types and their life cycle management	Proper live cycle management can help you get the most life out of your dead tank breakers and prevent failures.
Thurs. Oct 13 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Gas insulated switchgear life cycle management	For anyone managing GIS assets, it’s essential to understand the maintenance criteria, as well as the possibilities to extend the lifetime and reliability of the equipment during its complete lifecycle.
Thurs. Oct 20 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Generator circuit breaker life cycle management	A sound service strategy for your GCB allows the best possible return on investment.
Thurs. Oct 27 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Key diagnostic tests and SF6 testing/handling for high voltage circuit breakers	The use of SF6 analysis reduces the maintenance cost of breakers by identifying those breakers that have internal problems or safety issues.
Thurs. Nov 3 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Using an SF6 eco-friendly alternative in gas insulated switchgear and high voltage circuit breakers	New eco-efficient technologies eliminates sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) with scalable solutions for the lowest carbon footprint.
Thurs. Nov 10 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Using radiography advanced services on gas insulated switchgear and high voltage circuit breakers	When coupled with traditional external diagnostic testing, radiography can eliminate unnecessary or invasive internal inspections and maintenance, thus significantly decreasing maintenance costs and improving the reliability of the equipment.
Thurs. Nov 17 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Learn the risks of not understanding the true condition of your transformer assets	Identify and mitigate risks before a costly failure.
Thurs. Dec 1 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	Digital evolution - using data to optimize maintenance strategy	Owners and operators across the energy landscape are all faced with the sa.m.e challenge to operate safely, reliably, and efficiently. We provide digitalized expert support to deliver the attention and focus our industrial customers’ need to deal with their most complex issues - bundling industry knowledge, cloud-based solutions and remote services.
Thurs. Dec 8 @ 11:00 a.m. ET	High Voltage digital condition monitoring solutions	Condition monitoring systems are a basic data provider for advanced asset management strategies, focusing on system reliability or risk. They allow consistent access to your switchgear health status and thus, can be used to increase maintenance efficiency.
Thurs. Dec 15 @ 11:00 ET	Modernizing and understanding the digital landscape	We combine IT and OT in order to deliver data driven innovation that optimizes operations and maximizes uptime.
