The International Conference of Doble Clients remains one of the cornerstone global events for power system professionals, specifically targeting the operation, diagnostics, and maintenance of high-voltage substation assets. Bringing together utility engineers, asset managers, and manufacturers, this highly technical forum focuses on practical solutions to secure grid reliability, improve equipment longevity, and manage critical infrastructure risks.
The technical program is uniquely shaped by eight dedicated Client Committees, ensuring that peer-reviewed presentations address real-world operational challenges rather than commercial product pitches.
Key Technical Focus Areas
-
Switchgear & Substations: Best practices for circuit breaker maintenance, online condition monitoring, and the diagnostic testing of gas-insulated switchgear (GIS).
-
SF6 Alternatives & Decarbonisation: Operational transition strategies and testing protocols for the latest generation of eco-efficient, F-gas-free switchgear.
-
Transformer Asset Management: Advanced insulation diagnostics, Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) interpretation, and life-extension methodologies.
-
Protection & Automation: Practical implementations of the IEC 61850 standard, substation cyber security compliance, and advanced relay testing.
