Megger is hosting this one-day technical seminar at two convenient locations in Alberta, CANADA. Both seminars feature the same technical agenda, expert presenters, and hands-on demonstrations, so simply choose the location that best fits your schedule.
Overview
Power transformers are among the most valuable assets in any electrical network, making accurate condition assessment essential for ensuring long-term reliability and minimizing unplanned outages.
Join Megger for an intensive one-day technical seminar designed for engineers, technicians, commissioning specialists, and maintenance professionals who want to strengthen their understanding of modern transformer testing and industry best practices.
This seminar combines technical presentations with practical hands-on demonstrations, providing attendees with the latest knowledge in transformer diagnostics and field testing technologies.
During the morning sessions, participants will explore advanced dielectric and winding assessment techniques, including modern developments in Power Factor testing, Dielectric Frequency Response (DFR), Transformer Turns Ratio (TTR), Winding Resistance, Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA), Excitation Current, and Leakage Reactance testing.
The afternoon focuses on live demonstrations using Megger's latest transformer testing equipment, allowing participants to see proper test setup, measurement techniques, result interpretation, and troubleshooting methods used in real-world applications.
