Bureau of ‘Mines funded s research project akmed at developing the aabling technology for incipient fllure prediction In eect Dower system components at means of reducing the inure find fatale that somedmes occur when equipment ‘malfuntions, Over the ening years, interest in ths has waxed realved using an online monitoring technique. The detection cf turntoturn defects is expelallyIroportant because they are Deleved to represent the begining stage of most moter wining ‘ars IntRopucTION ‘The detection of incipient failures and the replacement of the components just priot to failure would eliminate the consequences of unexpected equipment failures. The capability to do this has long been desired by industy, however, it has been an illusive goal, Failure prediction of ‘mechanical components, pericularly bearings isan old art form, with a history of $0 or more years. The desire to spply predictive techniques to electrical equipment hasbeen slower fo develop. The measuring and. subsequent wacking of insulation resisance was an early form of predictive ‘maintenance, providing reasonably good indications of eterioration of ground insulation systems. One of the fest instances ofa continuous on-line monitoring system to delet electrical deterioration was reported in 1]. That system and approach was also notable because it estiblished a link between improved pecsonnel safety andthe application of on- line monitoring for incipient flues software technologies advanced, it became more practical to
