EPRI’s RCM Technical Reference for Power Delivery provides utilities with essential technical data and guidance for conducting RCM studies of power delivery equipment and systems. It serves as the “handbook” of RCM for the utility power delivery sector.  \nBackground  \nPreventive maintenance is perhaps the single largest controllable cost of a utility operation. Careful planning and good management are essential to achieve an optimal balance between cost of maintenance and service reliability. Traditional maintenance programs rely heavily on time-directed maintenance and manufacturer recommendations to preserve equipment operation. RCM addresses problems of traditional maintenance programs by focusing resources on preservation of function as opposed to individual equipment operation. RCM also promotes use of predictive techniques and recognizes that some failure can be more cost-effectively handled through corrective maintenance. This project used results of a previous substation effort to expand and refine the material in developing appropriate guidance and references for all of power delivery.  \nObjectives  \nTo provide utilities with essential technical guidance and data for performance of RCM studies.  \nApproach  \nWorking with the transmission substation version of existing technical materials, investigators enhanced each portion to improve clarity and suitability based on feedback from utility users. They expanded the scope of the generic data set to include transmission and distribution equipment (both overhead and underground), and they added terminology and maintenance technology overviews that were specific to transmission and distribution equipment.
