Modelo de gestión del mantenimiento para empresas distribuidoras de energía eléctrica, utilizando estrategias basadas en la confiabilidad y en los riesgos de los componentes asociados a las redes de distribución

Abstract

This thesis work describes the methodology for developing a maintenance management model for distribution companies as part of the asset management process, using strategies based on the reliability and risks of the components associated with distribution networks.

The implementation of RCM focuses on determining the critical components of the electrical distribution system and proposing possible preventive maintenance plans; The determination of the critical components is achieved through a simulation procedure, based on this analysis the criticality factor of the components is determined, the components with the highest criticality factor will be the candidates to be submitted to the possible maintenance plans.

Once the critical components of the system have been identified and a list of possible maintenance plans is available, the implementation of risk-based maintenance (RBM) is carried out, which focuses on reducing the risk of each component and determining the plans of optimal maintenance, this will allow achieving the goals in the reliability indices established by the distribution company.

Finally, this methodology is applied and validated in two test systems.
