When live, hourly, and daily values trend outside the norm of the longer-term averages. This indicates that changes are taking place in the generator’s operation. Changes in trending values may be an indicator to manually record and download a new set of waveform snapshots for comparison against past waveforms collected. The information and ratios revealed in these waveforms can potentially assist in identifying the root cause of the change and can be used by trained individuals to identify potentially significant changes taking place in the generator’s bearings, windings, insulation, or other key components.
