Proactive Equipment Replacement

We proactively replace certain types of equipment based on age and condition. These are items where failure can pose safety hazards, could cause outages affecting many customers or could result in lengthy power outages if an emergency replacement is required.

Other equipment is allowed to run to failure before it is replaced because the result of failure would affect fewer customers or the equipment is easier to replace.

This graphic identifies three types of equipment we proactively replace.
