An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Assets Condition Assessment on Electrical Equipment
Electrical Equipment Reliability and Operating Conditions
INTRODUCTION
The Assets Condition Assessment on Electrical Equipment Course by EuroMaTech is a highly participative training designed to strengthen participants’ technical expertise in evaluating, monitoring, and maintaining electrical assets. Transmission and distribution utilities, as well as industrial power systems, rely on thousands of electrical components—such as transformers, circuit breakers, underground cables, and transmission lines—whose reliability directly impacts overall system performance.
This comprehensive Assets Condition Assessment Training provides a structured understanding of methodologies used to determine equipment health and predict failure rates. Participants will learn to apply systematic assessment processes to improve performance, reliability, and cost control, while extending the service life of electrical equipment.
Through practical examples and case-based exercises, delegates will explore how inspection data, maintenance records, and condition monitoring contribute to accurate health indices and informed decision-making. The course also covers the integration of online monitoring systems and predictive analysis tools that enhance system reliability and asset performance.
By the end of this course, participants will be equipped to design and implement effective condition assessment frameworks that support proactive maintenance and long-term asset sustainability.
Key highlights include:
- Understanding condition assessment methodology for electrical assets
- Developing health indices for transformers, breakers, and other equipment
- Linking condition data to predictive reliability and maintenance planning
- Integrating online monitoring and diagnostic technologies
- Enhancing decision-making for risk reduction and cost optimisation

TRAINING METHODOLOGY
The Assets Condition Assessment on Electrical Equipment Course combines theory and practice to ensure maximum comprehension and practical application. The training uses instructor-led presentations, video demonstrations, group exercises, and real-world case studies. Delegates will engage in interactive sessions and simulations that focus on assessment, measurement, and testing of transformers, circuit breakers, and other electrical components.
Participants are encouraged to apply learned techniques to their own operational contexts. This blended learning approach promotes active participation, knowledge sharing, and practical understanding of asset condition assessment methods for improved maintenance reliability.
TRAINING SUMMARY
This EuroMaTech Assets Condition Assessment on Electrical Equipment Course offers a complete insight into condition evaluation techniques for transformers, circuit breakers, and other high-voltage equipment. Participants will gain the knowledge to assess asset health, perform reliability analyses, and apply predictive maintenance practices that enhance performance and extend equipment life.
The course also covers the use of condition assessment tools, IEEE test case applications, and reliability prediction models. By integrating asset condition data into decision-making, participants will be able to reduce system downtime, manage costs, and optimise maintenance planning.
By the end of the course, delegates will have the technical and analytical skills to design and implement effective asset condition assessment programmes that support system safety, performance, and sustainability.
