Long-Term Ownership and Peace of Mind

T-Star SVCs are built to last. When properly maintained, they can last indefinitely. We routinely perform inspections and maintenance on systems that are 15+ years old. Systems continue to perform like new after billions of switching operations.


Post installation recommendation
Minimize Downtime

For your protection against downtime, we recommend a maintenance plan that will keep you from being surprised by unforseen issues. Although failures are rare, we make the following typical recommendations:

  • Purchase up to 10% in spare parts to ensure replacement parts are available when needed.

  • Consider purchasing T-Star's extended service plan for peace of mind. Save time and money by relying on T-Star for regular remote check-ups and support.

  • Find or hire someone trained and supported by T-Star to perform routine maintenance and swap out parts as directed by us.

Additional Optional Investment
T-Star's Service Plan (purchased separately)

  • Annual 1-day onsite checkup.

  • Remote monitoring to:
    • Investigate system performance by reviewing historical high-speed logs along with high- and low-speed data alarms
    • Provide insights into unusual electric power system events
    • Offer quick feedback on the cause of trip alarms
    • Re-tune the SVC based on facility operating changes
