Mitigate the Operational Challenges Caused by Cold Weather with Winter-Ready Solutions from EMT

The key to ensuring the reliability and safety of your GIS and circuit breakers during the winter months is planned maintenance. By scheduling regular checks and repairs, you can prevent unplanned downtime and mitigate the risks posed by cold temperatures. EMT’s Leak Detection, Insulating Gas Management, and Leak Repair Services are designed to help utilities proactively mitigate these risks.

The Impact of Insulating Gas Leaks on Your Operations

Gas leaks in electrical systems, such as GIS and circuit breakers, can have serious consequences, especially in colder climates:

Decreased Insulating Performance: Even small gas leaks can lead to a drop in gas pressure, reducing the insulating properties of the gas and increasing the risk of equipment failure.
Low Pressure Alarms: Leaks can trigger low-pressure alarms, leading to unnecessary shutdowns and downtime if not addressed quickly.
Environmental Hazards: Leaking insulating gases like SF6 contribute to environmental concerns due to their greenhouse gas potential, making detection and repair critical for sustainability.
