Hi to all!

Im trying to check the best practices available to check generators.

My generator as 6MW and 11kV exit voltage, run by a gas turbine.

Can some help me indicating the practices available to check the generator? and its periodicity?

Recently it came to my knowledge a machine in the spanish market that cough my attention. it is called EDAIII from unitronics.

Check also the attachment, for me, it seems interesting, until the part where they say in page 9 "When EDA test gives evidences of one or more insulation problem, its the time to confirm this issue with 2nd instance techniques".

The advantages seems to be that the machine can be operated by a non-expert guy and if evidences problems are found then it should be used other techniques.

If you guys have time, give it a look and give me your opinion.
