Five key indicators, open the road to upgrading
How to judge the right time to steadily promote the upgrading of electrical equipment? In this regard, Schneider Electric proposed five key judgment indicators to clarify the necessity and benefits of renovation:
The supply of spare parts is difficult and expensive: when spare parts of older products are not available in stock, the continuity of service and support will be jeopardized, and in this case, the adaptation work should be the current priority of the enterprise;
Rising maintenance costs: When labor shortage, rising parts prices and increasing maintenance frequency, maintenance costs are rising, and the delay of upgrading will lead to a doubling of maintenance costs;
Significant component aging and wear: Aging materials reduce the reliability of equipment and affect the uptime of equipment. Enterprises need diagnostic tools to check the wear of electrical equipment and compare the current performance with the historical performance of the equipment.
Accelerating business development: As businesses expand, the internal power requirements of industrial facilities may change, and with the external digital trend, companies face new regulatory requirements to ensure the safety of machinery and people, as well as the safety of connected systems.
Avoid faults that affect critical services: Enterprises need to ensure that the electrical systems that support critical services are robust and reliable. To avoid downtime, it is important to quickly upgrade aging distribution equipment.
Focusing on sustainable development and practicing the concept of circulation, Schneider Electric understands the importance of the concept of circular economy in the power distribution system, and will continue to adapt the transformation service to help more enterprises in need of power distribution equipment “rebirth”, relying on resource recycling to reduce the impact of products on the environment.
