UTILITY / INDUSTRY TX ISSUES

Utility / Industry are requested to send transformer related issues to team trafocare; We will do our best to cover it in respective speakers’ topics. Also before and after the workshop, we will continue to work on the respective threads of issues.

Gyansabha is the best opportunity to discuss one problem from all angles of OEM, End user, Field expert, Lab Expert, Transformer component experts. Every problem may not have a quick solution that works for all. Some of the issues may need more involved work, field study n research, involvement of more parties which do not fit in regular course of business. Trafocare is committed to work in the direction of our mission for conservation of transformers, Swachh Trafo Abhiyan, Tx Fire & Safety and other issues highlighted by the utilities, industries and OEMs.

Trafocare Initiatives

MISSION FOR CONSERVATION OF POWER TRANSFORMERS.

About TRAFO CARE

About Trafocare

TRAFOCARE is a mission for conservation of transformers. India has a huge fleet of Transformers worth billions of dollars. Maintaining outside warranty transformers, hundreds or thousands of them, is a task for every utility & Industry. TRAFOCARE is an opportunity to have discussions(Gyansabha) on related topics, case studies, creating awareness, experience sharing on real life transformer issues, clarify doubts and get exposed to knowledge outside the organization.

TrafoCare objective is that the known knowledge is discussed and that should help the end users

  • To maintain their outside warranty transformers well.
  • To maintain their new transformers well.
  • To decide on specs of buying new transformers

Venue for this general workshop moves within India from West, North, East and South locations for convenience of utilities and industries.

About Organizers

TRAFOCARE is organized by a cluster of individuals, associations, manufacturers, service providers and consultants.

The organizing team of 7th edition of Trafocare Mumbai is Knowledge Cluster, SPARK Group, SM Systems, Polywater USA, Doble India, Easun MR, LeakXpert, Laxmi Associates, Yash High Voltage, Savita Oil Technologies Ltd, LeakXpert team, Expert Engineers, Consultants etc.

We also invite expert speakers from the utilities and industries to share their expertise in line with the theme of TRAFOCARE.

1000+ engineers from Genco, Transco, Discoms, Renewables, OEMs, Consultants have participated in earlier workshops as delegates at Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata and Hyderabad.

Idea is not to limit the workshop as an isolated event but to continue threads of trafocare mission from event to event. New thread we are starting in 7th edition of Trafocare is scrapping of transformers, role of transformers in sustainable economy, relevant Indian Standard. This should translate into the message “Repairing of transformers is better than scrapping of transformers” Lets see!

Why General Workshop?

At Trafocare delegates are in focus. Queries from delegates have more importance than completing the presentation. Presentations on various subjects are setting the context for discussions. At Trafocare we encourage scussions/interactions “Gyansabha”.

Group of expert faculty & delegates from different organizations (utilities, industries, consultants, OEMs, Service Providers, Mentors) under one roof creates a master mind that increases the level of collective intelligence on the subject. General workshops at common places give time saving, cost sharing & Knowledge sharing advantage from outside of the organization.

Queries can continue even after the workshop on a whatsapp group moderated by Spark Group.
