Five Minute Facts
Use CBM to Stay Ahead of the Electrical D-I-P-F Curve
The D-I-P-F curve goes from design and implementation to potential and functional failure. When your plant is ordering new electrical assets, it’s a good idea to find out if you can get the switchgear designed to be ready for infrared and ultrasound analysis. Is there an OEM out there…
