Life-Cycle Services of Electrical Distribution Equipment

Economical and sustainable electric power distribution in a changing operating environment

As the need for electric power grows, more attention is being paid to its cost-efficiency, operational reliability, and safety aspects. In line with life cycle management, preventive and periodic maintenance and optimized equipment replacements not only secure the uninterrupted operation of electrical distribution equipment, while minimizing unplanned failures and malfunctions, but they also enable the transition toward more energy-efficient, electric power distribution systems that use data-based management.

The life cycle of electric power distribution should be looked at comprehensively. The electrical distribution grid is an environment whose functions yield data that can then be used to optimize the system’s load capacity and production processes. Equipment replacements and modernizations enable digitalization when considering the transition to the next level: toward systematically interconnected equipment.

Systematic and smooth service takes care of the life cycle of Aurubis Finland’s electrical distribution equipment

Problem-free life cycle partnership in electric power distribution

Insta provides comprehensive, precise, and safe life cycle services for Aurubis Finland’s electrical distribution equipment. The partnership has improved the operational reliability of production equipment, the work stays on schedule, and the companies develop the systems further together.

– As a partner in electrical distribution maintenance, Insta offers a larger scale of services compared to other companies. It is easy to handle everything through one partner company. The operations have expanded to investments and automation and, for example, our weekly preventive maintenance is handled through Insta. Among other things, carbon brush maintenance is important for us, and it has been working very well, says Aurubis Finland’s Maintenance Engineer and Electrical Work and Operation Supervisor Toni Ketonen.

– There have not been any hiccups with electric power distribution for quite some time now. This has been a considerable change from before. Preventive maintenance has eliminated equipment failures, and the absence of power outages and breakdowns has, naturally, led to the greatly improved operational reliability of production equipment.
