Circuit breaker testing with OMICRON
During the last few years we have seen an increasing demand for non-invasive test methods for evaluating the condition of circuit breakers. Regardless if the circuit breaker is installed in a conventional substation, a switchgear or a Gas Insulated Substation (GIS), the industry has moved to try to perform a complete diagnostic without intervening any working connection; that means, testing both sides grounded systems and taking measurements without disconnecting secondary cables of the circuit breaker.

Changing fast and slow
There’s something of an energy sector mantra that’s developed in the past few years – the energy system is changing, changing faster than ever before. It’s repeated ad nauseum in offices, work sites, and government offices across the country, sometimes with enthusiasm at the thought of the efficiency and decarbonisation benefits it heralds; but sometimes with a sense of unease at how we’ll need to change to stay relevant and keep pace.
