Abstract
This paper addresses the basic requirements for protective devices maintenance and testing as recommended by the equipment manufacturers as well as several consensus standards. Proper maintenance and testing to assuring the reliability and integrity of electrical distribution systems, equipment, overcurrent protective devices, as well as the protection of equipment and people. However, preventative maintenance of electrical systems and equipment is often overlooked or performed infrequently. This paper will explore: Guides for electrical equipment and overcurrent protective device maintenance and testing. Analysis of various electrical equipment installations and the maintenance program practiced. Equipment damage and arc flash hazards with respect to preventative maintenance.
