Energy Support Seminars

Our seminars

Our specialist seminars provide you with hands-on knowledge for the safe operation of high-voltage systems. In the Oil Seminars you learn how to correctly handle oil samples and insulating oils, gain insights into the interpretation of analysis results and acquire practical experience in the laboratory.

The PD Seminars deepen your expertise in partial discharge measurement technology – one of the most sensitive and important methods for assessing the condition of insulation systems. This keeps you technically up to date at all times.

For the correct handling of oil samples & insulating oils

Including practical exercises in the lab and the interpretation of analysis results. We answer the most important questions about insulating-oil analysis:

  • What do the determined insulating-oil parameters tell me about my transformer?
  • Was the oil sampling at the transformer OK? How do I recognise faulty oil samples?
  • Which legal requirements do I have to meet?
  • What influence does the oil temperature have on the result?
  • Can I trust the results of the insulating-oil analysis?
  • How do the insulating oils on the market differ in their evaluation?

Seminar programme – what to expect

The Oil Seminar is divided into three consecutive days. Bookable individually, in combination or in full.

1Fundamentals

Oil Seminar 1

Basic knowledge of oil analysis: oils used, handling and correct treatment of the oil sample and interpretation of the results with regard to the transformer condition.

2Advanced seminar

Oil Seminar 2

Detailed interpretation of the measured values based on various fault cases. Attendance of Oil Seminar 1 is a prerequisite.

3Practice in the lab

Oil Seminar 3

Expert knowledge on DGA interpretation and insulating-oil analysis – including the further measurement methods and countermeasures to be initiated.

The PD Seminar

ENERGY SUPPORT SEMINARS

Understanding partial-discharge measurement technology

Partial discharge measurement is one of the most sensitive and important methods for assessing the condition of the insulation system of high-voltage equipment. In this seminar we show the physical causes of PD, the effects on the insulation system and the principles of the most common measurement methods – each with practical examples and measurements in the high-voltage lab.

Seminar programme – what to expect

The PD Seminar comprises two coordinated days – from the fundamentals to practical measurement in the lab.

1Fundamentals

PD Seminar 1

Physical causes of partial discharge, effects on the insulation system and the principles of the most common measurement methods – illustrated with practical examples.

2In-depth & practice

PD Seminar 2

Deepening of the measurement methods with practical measurements in the high-voltage lab for condition assessment of insulation systems.
