Transformer Audit App turns transformer audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each transformer against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare transformer audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.
Transformer Audit App runs a scored transformer audit covering oil level, temperature, and colour, bushings, terminals, and hot spots on thermography, Buchholz relay and pressure relief device, tap changer operation and counter, and cooling fans, radiators, and pumps, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, transformer findings live on paper and in chat. A transformer fault such as oil leaks and low oil level slips through. An audit then means rebuilding transformer evidence from folders.
Transformer Audit App keeps one record per transformer and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each transformer finding is tracked to verified closure. Electrical and substation engineers see transformer completion and overdue actions across the energy & utilities portfolio. Every transformer record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Transformer Audit App?
A comprehensive transformer audit covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Audit transformer programmes with weighted scoring, photo evidence, and corrective action tracking across sites. Your audit should include sections for oil level, temperature, and colour; bushings, terminals, and hot spots on thermography; and buchholz relay and pressure relief device, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every audit finding is traceable.
How to Use Transformer Audit App
A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run a transformer audit:
Open the transformer audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
Score each transformer against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
Let the app calculate the section and overall transformer score so the site is comparable to others.
Raise a corrective action for each failed transformer criterion with an owner and due date.
Sign off the transformer audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.
What Does a Transformer Audit Cover?
A transformer audit scores condition against electrical safety NOC and statutory thermography testing, checking oil level, temperature, and colour, bushings, terminals, and hot spots on thermography, Buchholz relay and pressure relief device, tap changer operation and counter, cooling fans, radiators, and pumps, and earthing, bunding, and oil containment. Each transformer finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the transformer audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

How Transformer Audit App Scores a Transformer Audit
Step 1
Score Consistently
Weighted criteria are built into the transformer audit template.
Step 2
Evidence Every Finding
Auditors attach photo proof for each transformer non-conformance.
Step 3
Compare and Act
Scorecards rank sites and failed transformer criteria become corrective actions.

What Transformer Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere
Transformer work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Transformer Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Every auditor scores the transformer audit differently, so sites cannot be compared
One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The transformer audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.
Problem
Transformer scoring depends on which auditor showed up
Transformer sections get skipped with no record
Transformer scores are not comparable across sites
Solution
Weighted transformer criteria baked into the audit template
Mandatory transformer sections, so nothing is skipped
Comparable transformer scores that roll up across the estate
Licensed electrical contractor signs off the transformer fix, and nobody checks it
A defect on the transformer is handed to licensed electrical contractor. A week later the transformer defect is marked closed. Whether the transformer work was done well, badly, or at all, nobody has verified.
Problem
Licensed electrical contractor marks work closed with no verification
Poor transformer fixes are only found at the next inspection
No record of which transformer partners actually perform
Solution
Closure photo required before any transformer action is signed off
Licensed electrical contractor performance scored on closure speed and re-opens
Re-opened transformer actions linked back to the original finding
You find out about a transformer problem from a complaint
There is no live view of transformer status across sites. The first sign that something failed on the transformer is a client call or an incident, by which point the problem is already public.
Problem
No live view of transformer status across sites
Transformer problems surface as complaints, not as data
Transformer risk is invisible until it becomes an incident
Solution
Live multi-site dashboard of transformer completion and open issues
Transformer risk scoring flags sites trending to failure
Configurable dashboards filter transformer results by site and date
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Transformer Audit App check on a transformer audit?
Transformer Audit App runs a scored transformer audit against electrical safety NOC and statutory thermography testing, checking oil level, temperature, and colour, bushings, terminals, and hot spots on thermography, Buchholz relay and pressure relief device, tap changer operation and counter, and cooling fans, radiators, and pumps. Each finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the point it fails, then routed to an owner with a deadline. It stays open until a reviewer verifies the fix, so the audit becomes a traceable evidence pack for electrical and substation engineers rather than an ageing spreadsheet. Because scoring is built into the template, two sites assessed by two people produce numbers you can compare fairly.
Which transformer defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The audit targets the transformer failures that matter most: oil leaks and low oil level, hot bushings and loose terminations, Buchholz gas or alarm, and tap changer faults. Left unchecked, a fault such as oil leaks and low oil level can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so electrical and substation engineers fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Transformer Audit App support for transformer work?
Transformer Audit App keeps transformer checks aligned to electrical safety NOC and statutory thermography testing. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, electrical and substation engineers pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run transformer checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Transformer Audit App is offline-first: teams complete transformer checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So electrical and substation engineers get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves a transformer audit was completed?
Every completed transformer audit carries thermographic image, oil level and temperature photo, and buchholz and relief device photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, electrical and substation engineers can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
