Oil Filter Breaker Service

Oil filter breaker service refers to the maintenance and servicing of oil circuit breakers, which are used in electrical systems to protect equipment from faults by interrupting the flow of electricity when an issue arises, such as an overload or short circuit. These breakers use oil as an insulating medium to extinguish the arc created when the circuit is interrupted. Over time, the oil can become contaminated with impurities, which can reduce its effectiveness and lead to performance issues.

The oil filter breaker service involves cleaning or replacing the oil, inspecting the breaker’s mechanical and electrical components, and ensuring proper functioning. Technicians check the breaker for signs of wear, such as leaks, corrosion, or damaged seals, and perform necessary repairs. The oil is filtered to remove contaminants, and the oil levels are replenished to ensure proper operation. The service also includes testing the breaker’s trip mechanism, contacts, and insulation to ensure the system is fully functional and safe.

Regular maintenance and servicing of oil circuit breakers are crucial for maintaining the reliability and safety of electrical systems, preventing failures, and extending the lifespan of the equipment.
