The Importance of Preventive Maintenance

Preventive maintenance is essential in managing industrial electrical systems. Scheduled maintenance based on cycles or manufacturers’ technical standards not only reduces the risk of failures but also maintains performance and extends equipment lifespan.

Standard Low Voltage Switchgear Maintenance Process

1. Overall Inspection

• Identify abnormalities such as overheating, unusual noise, or burning smells.
• Check the condition of cable connections to ensure there is no damage or looseness.
• Measure the insulation resistance of devices to evaluate insulation capacity.

2. Cleaning and Dusting

• Remove dust using vacuums, cloths, or alcohol-based solutions.
• Treat corrosion on busbars and metallic components.

3. Device Checking and Testing

• Measure contact resistance of devices like Contactors, MCCBs, and busbars.
• Test the functionality of ATS and overcurrent relays.
• Test critical components such as circuit breakers and capacitor banks.

Benefits of Regular Maintenance

• Ensure Safety: Reduce risks such as fire or electrical leakage, protecting operators and equipment.
• Prolong Equipment Lifespan: Maintain stable performance, minimize wear, and extend the device’s lifecycle.
• Cost Savings: Detect potential issues early, minimizing unexpected repair costs and downtime.

Common Faults and Prevention Methods

Common Issues:

• Oxidized Contacts: Reduces electrical conductivity and causes overheating.
• Faulty Protective Relays: Fails to detect overloads or short circuits in time.
• Broken or Loose Connections: Risks short circuits or power loss.

Prevention:

• Perform regular maintenance to clean, inspect, and replace components as needed.
• Use specialized testing equipment to detect faults early.

Detailed Device Inspection Guide

Device	Inspection Details
Contactor	Check contacts to ensure they are not worn or stuck.
ATS	Evaluate automatic transfer functionality between main and backup power sources.
MCCB	Measure opening/closing times and contact resistance between poles.
Busbars	Check tightness, measure insulation resistance, and treat corrosion if present.
Protective Relays	Test functions like overcurrent and ground fault protection to ensure accurate response.

Maintenance Frequency Based on Usage

System Type	Recommended Frequency
Large Industrial Systems	Quarterly inspections and maintenance to maintain stable performance.
Office Systems	Routine checks every 6 months for moderate operation needs.
Continuous Operation Systems	Flexible maintenance schedules for signs of issues or specific requirements.

In-Depth Testing Procedures

1. ACB/MCCB Testing

• Insulation Resistance Testing: Verify insulation capacity between poles per manufacturer standards.
• Contact Resistance Testing: Ensure minimal and uniform resistance values across poles.
• Voltage Withstand Testing: Assess insulation endurance under specified voltage for one minute.

2. Protective Relay Testing

• Overcurrent Testing (50/51): Ensure accurate tripping under overcurrent conditions.
• Ground Fault Testing (50N/51N): Evaluate protection capabilities during leakage currents.
