Eaton’s BushingGard Predictive Diagnostic solution uses predictive

diagnostics to help users prevent malfunctions or breakdowns in

large power transformer bushing equipment. The self-operating

systems and remote monitoring services provide real-time detection

and allow users to work towards solving problems instead of finding

them. The bushing sensor requires minimum resources, accounts for

minimal outage time, allows for onsite communication, and results in

faster and easier installation.

• Uses the same sensor set to perform online periodic monitoring of partial

discharge (arcing or sparking). That information helps analyze root causes

of internal gassing or other discharge activity related to the winding insulation,

internal connections, bushings, or magnetic core iron.

• Highly sensitive instrumentation can detect PD signals as low as 20-30 pC

even in extremely noisy environments like those in substations or power plants,

which means accurate reports that allow for better decision making.

• Available with a commercial-grade modem for remote communication.

• Customized bushing sensors available with appropriate lead-time.
