Abstract:
1. A condition monitoring system for monitoring at least one circuit breaker, said condition monitoring system comprising at least one computing device comprising: a memory device configured to store data associated with the at least one circuit breaker, wherein the data includes frequency, voltage, and current readings of the at least one circuit breaker; at least one input channel, said at least one input channel configured to receive the data associated with the at least one circuit breaker; and a processor coupled to said memory device and said at least one input channel, said processor programmed to predict a potential fault condition that has not yet occurred by comparing at least a portion of the data associated with the at least one circuit breaker with at least one scenario programmed therein, wherein said at least one scenario is at least partially based on at least one predetermined event associated with at least one condition of the at least one circuit breaker.
