IPB Inspections and Maintenance

Experience has shown through aging systems that bus systems fail due to:

  • Cracked insulators
  • Presence of moisture
  • Debris in bus duct enclosure
  • Dirt or dust build-up (additional threat in force cooled systems)
  • Iso Phase Bus conductor support insulator bolts loosen from vibration and thermal cycling
  • Aluminum laminate failure of conductor thermal expansion joint
  • Exterior expansion joints
  • Degradation of grounds
  • Other

In order to help prevent such occurrences, Electrical Builders has developed an Isolated Phase Bus System featuring Real-Time Video Inspection and Specialized Cryogenic Cleaning Service. During a plant scheduled or emergency outage, EBI will provide a crew to come to your facility to evaluate and report on your existing system. Documentation is provided via real-time inspection video and digital photos for archiving. In addition, you will receive a fully documented assigned grid map of the IPB system including insulators, bushings and wall penetration.

EBI's specialized cryogenic cleaning method has been proven superior to any hand cleaning method. Don't wait for problems to arise, contact us today to schedule your system assessment and maintenance service.
