Transmission and distribution (T & D) equipment form the backbone
of the power grid and these critical capital assets are showing their age.
With the majority of large power transformers 25 years old, they are
approaching renewal, refurbishment, or at the very least will need
an increased amount of care in order to prevent costly forced outages.
In the big picture, [Honeywell’s] solution is a cost-effective means of
maintaining visibility of the health of assets that are critical to the business,
whether this be transformers or any other piece of equipment.

it increasingly difficult for utilities to ensure the level of
reliability their customers — both retail and industrial — have
come to expect from this critical infrastructure.
Substation Health Advisor is a proven solution for
electric power enterprises concerned about improving reliability
and availability throughout their delivery network.

While often considered a marvel of engineering, the current North
American transmission and distribution (T & D) infrastructure is
somewhat disjointed, aging, and becoming increasingly unreliable
and inefficient.
