Sourcing strategy development and real faults vs. non-critical failures explained
Only in this week, two live sessions were already broadcasted at the TA

Only in this week, two live sessions were already broadcasted at the TA: Power transformer sourcing strategy development by N. Malan at the Strategic sourcing course, and Implementing DGA to distinguish between real faults and non-critical failures at the DGA course by M. Grisaru.
If you have missed these lessons, feel free to use the links above and attend them on demand.
ABOUT THE STRATEGIC SOURCING LESSON #2 (INTERMEDIATE LEVEL)
Upon attending this lesson, you will be able to:
evaluate the requirements for strategy development
create an internal and external profile for strategy development
develop the strategy for power transformer sourcing.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Mr. Malan has 24 years’ experience in electrical engineering, commercial and supply chain in the utility industry across generation, transmission and distribution. He led and implemented successful strategic sourcing methodology for the power transformer category on group level, securing strategic partnering with global transformer manufacturers, to secure supply for best transformer technologies and optimized total cost of ownership.
ABOUT THE DGA COURSE LESSON #12 (MASTER’S LEVEL)
Attend this session on demand and find out more about:
- transformer fault severity from DGA evaluation, real cases of avoiding fault alarms and disconnected transformers just before a critical failure,
- levels of total combustion gases and trends versus fault severity,
- advanced diagnostic approach emerging from particular individual, practical and theoretical practice – an old but gold diagnostic method,
- real cases inspected after DGA evaluation by different methods.
Keywords: DGA diagnosis, real cases, expertise, health evaluation
The lesson’s content is fully vendor-agnostic, but it is sponsored by SPECO.
Continue learning each day at the Transformers Academy! Today, we will host live session at the Transformer testing course with Mr. B. Sztari – save your seat here.
Tomorrow, attend the live session of Mr. C.S. Narasimhan who teaches about transformer oil. Get the room link here.
