HV Contracting provides a complete oil testing and analysis service.

 

Regular sampling and analysis of transformer oil is paramount to maximising transformer performance.

 

HV Contracting can provide a world-class oil testing and analysis service. We utilise the services of the Grid Solutions Laboratory (a GE and Alstom joint venture) based in Archerfield, Queensland. We have a reliable overnight delivery service for all samples from Western Australia. The Grid Solutions Laboratory has NATA accreditation and services and documentation are accredited to ISO 9001.

 

A range of analysis tests provide you with an expert assessment of the overall condition of your transformer. Analysis includes comprehensive trending of results with reports. We can arrange for clients to have access to database information for monitoring and diagnostics via a portal and we can advise when the next recommended sampling should occur to assist you with your maintenance scheduling.

 

There are thirty different component tests that can be performed by the Laboratory.

• Colour and appearance
