YOUR EQUIPMENT MAY BE AT RISK
Preventive maintenance is more than maintaining the surface-level appearance of your equipment. It is crucial to ensure that equipment and machines continue to function correctly. Performing maintenance tasks, such as cleaning, scanning, and testing, can identify and address potential problems, avoiding costly breakdowns or downtime. Failure to keep up with preventive maintenance can also result in a fine from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Through CBT’s special preliminary assessment and service contract, you will extend the lifespan of equipment and reduce the need for expensive repairs or replacements so you can sleep at night.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
SWITCHGEAR CLEANING*
Over time, switchgear can become coated in dirt and debris, risking your equipment. Older switchgear are especially at risk as replacement components are becoming more difficult to find. Neglecting your switchgear for too long may cause it to fail, costing you significant time and money. CBT’s services include visual inspection, cleaning, lubrication, and mechanical servicing, maximizing the lifespan of your switchgear.
THERMOGRAPHY SCAN*
A thermography scan comprehensively examines your facility’s electrical equipment, including panels, switchgear, and circuits. Using a thermal device, our Specialists search for loose connections, hotspots, and other potentially hazardous areas that are invisible to the naked eye. After discovering potential issues, CBT will assist you in creating a strategy to prevent equipment failure.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS STUDY*
Our in-depth study provides diagrams of your electrical power distribution systems. These findings will determine incident energy and/or personal protective equipment needed for safe electrical maintenance. Owning a comprehensive schematic of your electrical infrastructure is extremely helpful when installing new transformers feeding your facility or making other modifications.
*NFPA 70B Standards dictate maintenance intervals based on equipment condition.
*The 2023 NFPA 70B language has shifted from “recommended practices” to “standard requirements.” The new standard is considered the minimum consensus requirements for safe electrical work practices. Interested in how this will affect your facility?
