Abstract

It is a common trend of power companies to progressively change its equipment maintenance strategies from relying on purely time-based preventive tasks to more condition-based predictive tasks. An important prerequisite of condition based maintenance is condition monitoring. Results of condition monitoring on power equipment form useful information in formulating asset strategies in the most cost effective manner while maximising the availability and enhancing reliability of the equipment. This paper describes the road of CLP Power Hong Kong in developing strategies and plans for condition monitoring and its roadmap to prepare for the implementation of condition based maintenance.
