3 Indian User Meeting Economic growth and the resulting increase in energy demand on one side and increasing cost pressures on the other side result in a challenging situation for utilities around the world: The life management and life extension of existing power equipment become a crucial priority, with the clear goal to utilize those vital assets as long as possible. In addition, with the rise in complexity of the power system it is important to ensure reliable operation of protection and communication systems. But this also bears risk efficiency must not come at the cost of compromised safety and reliability. When does a certain piece of equipment become a risk to people and to the system? The answer to this question, and the key to an efficient asset management strategy is accurate knowledge of the state or condition of the equipment in question. Accurate condition assessment is the major enabler to determine if and what action needs to be taken with key power system equipment. OMICRON s mission is to provide the electrical supply industry with the tools that support this cause. Whether for off-line diagnostic or onlinemonitoring, we are determined to provide the most advanced test equipment, enabling the utilities to reliably and accurately assess the condition of power system assets. Our mission however does not end here. It is not only to provide the industry with state of the art diagnostic solutions but also the knowledge that is required to utilize them efficiently. Our worldwide OMICRON workshops, conferences and OMICRON Academy training classes focus on the goal of providing expert training and detailed background knowledge. For the first time in India OMICRON is organizing an Indian User Meeting. We are pleased to bring together renowned experts from our own organization and other organizations to meet, share and learn about the latest developments in power equipment diagnostics and monitoring. Up to date real life case studies will deliver accurate accounts of what is happening in the industry. This will help empower the participants to perform condition assessment in accordance with the requirements and possibilities of the hour. To enhance the opportunity for all participants to share knowledge and learn, questions and discussion are encouraged. Your OMICRON Team i

11 General Information If generators are considered the heart of a supply system then transformers can be considered the muscles, transmission and distribution lines the arteries and veins while circuit breakers, together with protection and control systems, are the nervous system. Just as our bodies grow and mature and then gradually decline so do these key aspects of a supply system. When we visit a doctor for an annual check-up we are keen for him to use the latest technology and knowledge to identify any existing problems or future risks with our health. Similarly a wise engineer will take this approach when assessing the health of a supply system. Many aspects of our lives have experienced profound changes over recent years and fortunately our ability to perform advanced diagnostic measurements with deepened knowledge to properly interpret the results means that we can reliably determine the health of supply systems, increasing reliability while minimizing capital costs. The topics covered in the Indian User Meeting are focused on providing detailed technical explanations of the latest diagnostic techniques, both on-line and off-line, with the supporting knowledge and examples of recent case histories to substantiate the benefits of these approaches. The following assets will be discussed > > Power Transformers > > Instrument Transformers > > Rotating Electric Machines > > GIS and Cables > > Circuit breakers > > Protection relays (including IEC implications and methodology) i
