3. 3. InspectionInspection

Actions: Controls

measurements

minor reparations

Duration: 1-2 weeks

Cycle: 1-2 years

Contractor staff: - ultrasonic crack surveillance (TÜV Rheinland)

- specific welding reparations

- revision of transformator load break

4. General Overhaul

Criteria:

- operation time

- measurements, controls

- defects

- experience

- availability

- official permits

Cycle:

10 - 22 years (depending on age and technical specifications)

Duration:

28 - 32 weeks


General Overhaul

Staff:

Proportion of internal staff: 15% - 80%

Proportion of contractor staff: 20% - 85%

- availability of qualified staff decreases

- relocation of production sites to foreign countries

→ missing Know-How

Other prerequisites:

- localisation of hydro power plants far away from industrial areas

- maintenance in Hydro power plants is difficult due to restricted space availability, difficult accessibility and continuous operation

- more and more restrictive security and health and environmental legislation

5. Conclusions

1. Increased use of the pumped-storage power plants

→ increased machinery stresses

- short-term operation

- part-load operation

- frequent load changes

2. Requirements of the Optimization of

balancing power market maintenance
