Failure Analysis

The challenge

When a connection fails — overheating, deformation, flashover — the visible damage is rarely the actual cause. Without thorough analysis, the problem repeats itself.

Our approach

Nexums independently assesses the failure cause based on findings, operational data and design data. We identify the failure mechanism and advise on repair and prevention.

Standards framework

IEC 60865 · IEC 62271 · IEC 61284

Result

A clear cause-and-effect report with the actual failure cause and recommendations to prevent recurrence.

FAQ

What is failure analysis?

An independent root-cause analysis of a failed high-voltage connection, based on findings, operating data and design information, to establish the actual failure mechanism.

When should I engage this?

Immediately after a fault, overheating or breakdown — before traces of the damage are lost or the component is replaced.

What does it deliver?

A cause-and-effect report stating the actual cause of failure and concrete recommendations to prevent recurrence.
