Doble Engineering is pleased to announce the release of DTAWeb 1.1, bringing a new level of integration to your Doble Test Result management. DTAWeb1.0 introduces a web-based application which allows loading, editing, exporting and analysis of your DTAField test results. DTAWeb 1.1 adds in the ability to manage your Doble SFRA test results, your oil lab test results, and the ability to see test results that have been generated for you by the Doble Oil Lab, and seamlessly integrates any data you have manually loaded into the database. In addition to test result management, DTAWeb 1.1 allows you to attach any file you want to an apparatus in the database. Using attachments you can attach nameplate documents to a transformer, bushing drawings to a bushing or thermal images to an arrester.
At the 2007 Conference of Doble Clients many pertinent safety topics were discussed. In the Circuit Breaker Committee meeting an especially important topic came up. A member brought up personal grounding when using a cable fault locator. Issues have come up for grounding when using a cable fault locator outside of a substation.
