Sulzer: National Grid Project
Project of the Year
Sponsored by EMIR Software
The National Grid detected failing resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) on two Ex rated, 16 MW motors at gas booster stations in England. To secure Ex condition monitoring compliance, it approached Sulzer. As the motors were important for the Uk's gas supply network, repairing the 51 ton, six-phase synchronous units quickly was vital. Sulzer's Birmingham Service Centre carried out turnkey redesigns and rewinds on both motors, helping National Grid to provide reliable power to millions.

ADC Electrical
Contribution to Skills & Training Award
Sponsored by SULZER
Most people within engineering will be aware of how difficult it is becoming to find and keep hold of good engineering people. This year ADC Electrical have worked with Primary Engineer to try and increase awareness of engineering within schools in the Northeast of England to help produce our next generation of engineers. Although we are thrilled to be a finalist for this award, it is hoped that this may in some small way help raise awareness of the Primary Engineer scheme and that others will see its value, and want to get involved themselves.
