GCB retrofit or replacement?

Format: OnDemand Online Webinar
Language: English

Aging generator circuit-breakers present growing risks to reliability, safety, and maintenance costs.
In this webinar, explore how to evaluate whether retrofit or full replacement is the right strategy for your plant.
Learn how modern vacuum switching technology can improve asset reliability, reduce maintenance costs, and eliminate the need for SF.
Gain practical insights to help you extend asset life, minimize downtime during the upgrade, and modernize generator protection in brownfield environments.

What you'll learn

Siemens Expert Thomas Kleinert will highlight typical challenges for aging power plants and provide a guideline to replacing/retrofitting aging Generator Circuit Breakers.
He will introduce different technical concepts that are possible for generators up to 500MVA using the small footprint and versatile installation possibilities of modern of SF6-free Vacuum Generator Circuit Breakers.

Who should participate?

This webinar is designed for plant managers in fossil-fired and hydroelectric power generation plants, as well as for technical engineers and leaders in the power generation industry.
