Abstract :
APS and PWEC have long been exploiting both preventive and predictive maintenance technologies as a means of increasing generation reliability. This paper documents the details of the successful application of one such technology, which facilitated operating both steam turbine generators (STGs) at Redhawk power plant through the summer 2003 peak as well as monitoring the performance of subsequent modifications.
