Effective Asset Management using Partial Discharge Cable Mapping

As with all assets, distribution cables age and deteriorate over time. The challenge to assess and determine the rate of deterioration is a challenge based on a number of factors. A method to determine condition is partial discharge mapping by way of detecting minor insulation failures before they become critical. This session aims to demonstrate an overview of the theory of partial discharge cable mapping, the techniques in setting up, differences in varying cable types and a case study.

Managing Technical Safety - Protecting People, the Environment & Reputations.

By robustly managing Technical Safety, we seek to minimise the chances of an asset causing harm (to people, the environment or commercially) throughout its lifecycle. The lecture will outline a concise engineering framework to facilitate the delivery of favourable Technical Safety outcomes, whilst supporting Reliable, Available & Maintainable (RAM) assets... so win-win? The talk considers regulatory frameworks in which we operate and examines what can happen if Technical Safety is compromised.
