Renewing equipment at the appropriate
serious accidents and their spread
For your safe use of distribution facilities, the key is to operate them based on the operating environments
recommended by the electrical manufacturer, periodic maintenance and inspection, and equipment renewal at the
appropriate time.
Recommended
renewal period
Failure rate
*1 This recommended renewal period is not a value for functionality or performance guaranteed by manufacturers, but indicates the period in which it is
considered generally more advantageous to replace the equipment with new equipment, in view of cost efficiency, given that the equipment is used under
normal conditions and with the normal maintenance and inspection.
*2 The period indicated for equipment with an asterisk (*) does not mean the maximum life before which the equipment should be replaced. The indicated
period is provided on the assumption that consumables, wear parts, electronic parts, etc. should be replaced appropriately according to the maintenance
and inspection results or the parts replacement criteria recommended by the manufacturer. In addition, before using spare parts which have been stored for
a long time, perform sufficient inspection and maintenance on them.

1. The vacuum circuit breaker represents 53% of all high-voltage (7.2 kV or below) equipment.
2. As causes, many customers have been reporting mechanical operation failures and insulation
deterioration, which are caused by a combination of high temperature, humidity, dust particles, etc.

Renewal of equipment is recommended
if signs of deterioration are noticed
