Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM): Although not always
possible, performing maintenance based on plant condition
versus a time-based maintenance schedule can help. CBM uses
real-time data from sensors to monitor the actual condition of
electric assets. By detecting anomalies early, such as increased
dissolved gases, overheating, or vibration, CBM can prevent
failures before they create an unsafe condition.
The performance and reliability of electric assets are closely
linked to industrial safety. Equipment degradation can pose signi昀椀cant safety risks to personnel and facilities if not corrected
timeously. Online monitoring using hydrogen sensors provides
insight into when to perform maintenance (or remove an asset
from service). Prioritizing the safety of electric assets not only
ensures operational continuity but also protects workers from
dangerous electrical hazards, creating a safer industrial environment overall.
This understanding highlights the critical importance of
managing electric assets for operational ef昀椀ciency and safety
in industrial settings. Ready to discuss protecting your industrial transformers? Contact us to talk to one of our application

Traci Hopkins started her journey in electric power reliability in
June 2012 as an adjunct instructor in various Training & Education departments for transformer technologies. Shortly after,
she transitioned into the role of Diagnostic Analytic Coordinator
for the international market while continuing to support training
& education through international events. In 2022, she joined
H2scan as the Sales Manager, Latin America responsible for
promoting hydrogen sensing across multiple industries. Traci
has received the CRL, MTMP, MTRP and DPS Training certi昀椀cations. Traci is also a Senior member of IEEE PES, the Association of Asset Management Professionals, and WIRAM (Women
in Reliability and Asset Management) organizations.
