What are the types of breakdown? What are the types of maintenance?

Question

Accepted Answer

Types of breakdown include thermal, dielectric, and electrostatic. Types of maintenance include corrective, preventive, and predictive.

Thermal breakdown occurs due to excessive heat and can cause insulation failure.
Dielectric breakdown occurs due to high voltage and can cause insulation failure.
Electrostatic breakdown occurs due to static electricity and can cause damage to electronic components.
Corrective maintenance is performed after a failure has occurred.
Preventive maintenance is performed on a regular basis to prevent failures.
Predictive maintenance uses data analysis to predict when maintenance is needed.
