Training Overview

Training Overview

Dissipation Factor, Resistance, and Megger (DRM) testing offers valuable insights into the condition of electrical equipment such as transformers, generators, and motors. The real benefit of DRM testing, however, comes from the ability to accurately interpret the results and apply them to informed maintenance decisions.

The Interpreting DRM Results: From Diagnosis to Actionable Insights training course is designed to provide participants with the essential knowledge and practical skills needed to effectively analyze and interpret DRM test data. Through this course, attendees will explore the fundamentals of DRM testing, learn key result analysis methods, and apply these techniques to improve the reliability and performance of electrical systems.

What are the goals?

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the principles and purpose of DRM testing
  • Interpret key parameters and trends in DRM test results
  • Diagnose issues such as insulation degradation, contamination, and electrical faults
  • Apply insights from DRM results to develop actionable maintenance plans
  • Integrate DRM findings into a broader condition monitoring program
  • Enhance equipment reliability and prevent unexpected failures

Who is this Training Course for?

This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

  • Electrical engineers and technicians
  • Maintenance and reliability professionals
  • Asset managers and plant engineers
  • Power system operators and supervisors
  • Professionals involved in condition monitoring and testing

How will this Training Course be Presented?

This training course will utilise a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes an interactive mixture of lecture-led learning & group discussions.
