Based in Miami, Florida, ZTZ Services has led the way in high- and medium-voltage transformer monitoring technology for decades. Our reputation is built on reliability, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to preventing power grid failures.
Unlike other providers, we design and manufacture our own hardware, develop our own software, and provide installation, training, and service solutions. ZTZ Services’ bushing and CCVT monitors are proudly made in the USA, backed by a lifetime warranty, and built to utility-grade standards. Secure, tariff-free, and proven in the field, they deliver crucial data you can count on.
One out of every 200 transformers experience a major failure every year. Bushings account for 37% of catastrophic transformer failures.
When transformers fail, the downstream consequences can shut down entire power grids. With 3-plus-year lead times for replacement, prevention is critical.
Despite severe failure risks, half of HV/MV transformers lack continuous monitoring, relying on annual testing that misses critical changes.
Dedicating resources for regular physical inspections is expensive and distracts from fleet maintenance.
Weather, power surges, and increasing loads affect transformers on utility networks differently. However many signs of aging are the same: energy spikes or trace gases in transformer oil indicate sealing or insulation breakdown.
Monitor insulation degradation, moisture ingress, and mechanical failures in transformer bushings.
Advanced DGA monitoring detects gas formation in transformer oil, identifying insulation breakdown and potential arcing before critical failures occur.
The CCVT MAX identifies issues like loose connections, capacitor failures, and ferro-resonance problems before they escalate.
Combines DGA and bushing data using advanced algorithms built on decades of proven experience. Sends secure alarms to SCADA platforms.
ZTZ Services handles all aspects of installation and ongoing service. Count on our engineers to ensure optimal monitor performance and minimal disruption to your operations.
ZTZ Services pioneered the first on-line bushing monitoring systems in the US market and advanced CCVT health analysis decades before the competition.
We understand the real-world life of transformers. With millions of trend data points and deep experience, we deliver the insight needed to detect and prevent power grid failures..
ZTZ premium USA made hardware stands up to the test and will outlast the rest. Our technicians keep sensors reliable and the data flowing.
Active transformer monitoring transforms data depth from one sample a year to eight samples a day.
Let’s discuss transformer monitoring solutions tailored to your specific needs and infrastructure. Contact us now and talk to an American engineer at our company.

When you run only a handful of critical HV/MV units, there is little to no redundancy. Taking one offline can idle an entire site, halt production, or interrupt essential services. The industries that depend on these assets are not peripheral.
Standard dissolved gas analysis (DGA) and bushing interpretation methods were developed under conventional loading assumptions that no longer fully match today’s grid conditions. We present three questions that illustrate key evolving relationships between current IBR operating conditions and transformer monitoring data.
