Reference Information

Key information from reference documents and guides (e.g.) or succinct descriptions of concepts (e.g. what is risk and how do I visualize it)

Determining End of Life for Transmission Line Assets and Substations Screening a service territory for “at risk” structures allows a utility to prioritize and optimize many of the life cycle decisions for both transmission and substation assets.

Selection and Application of Coatings Coating system degradation may occur due to exposure to environmental factors such as UV, temperature, salts, and precipitation, perhaps leading to corrosion-related damage of assets. EPRI evaluates new and emerging coating systems through laboratory testing to determine performance in various environments.
