Summary

A large-scale failure in Hydro-generators is always a setback that costs both time and money. In order to prevent this or to reduce the consequences, the first step is to identify the most common failures, the extent of damage and the root causes. Based on statistical information of real cases, the TB analyzes those aspects, including the aid of monitoring systems.
