Power transformers play a critical role in keeping industrial sites, utilities, and infrastructure running smoothly. Even small exterior damages can lead to safety risks, expensive failures, or unexpected downtime. Regular inspection is essential, but traditional manual checks take time, depend on human judgment, and often miss early signs of deterioration.
Tiliter’s Transformer Exterior Inspector Agent solves this problem by automating transformer inspections with Vision AI. It detects exterior issues instantly from a single uploaded image and provides a structured, reliable assessment. This guide explains how to use the agent and why it is a smarter way to inspect transformer enclosures.
Transformers are exposed to weather, vibration, corrosion, and long operating hours. Over time, this leads to visible exterior issues that can indicate deeper faults. Common problems include:
These issues can escalate into failures if left undetected. Manual inspections often happen infrequently, and inspectors might overlook subtle early signs. Automating the process helps teams act faster, prevent outages, and maintain safer equipment.
Automation brings consistency, speed, and accuracy to transformer inspection workflows. Tiliter’s Vision Agents analyze transformer images and identify visible defects within seconds. This eliminates manual guesswork and ensures every inspection follows the same standards.
The Transformer Exterior Inspector Agent uses computer vision to scan an uploaded image and generate structured insights. The result is a clear breakdown of detected issues, ready to be added to maintenance logs or inspection reports.
This type of automation helps teams:
Using the agent is simple. Here is a step-by-step walkthrough.
Open your Tiliter account and log in to the dashboard, where all Vision Agents are available.
From the menu on the left side, click on the Agents tab. This is where you can browse and search all available Vision Agents.
Use the search bar to find Transformer Exterior Inspector Agent. Once it appears, you can access it directly.
Select the Test button to open the interface for running the inspection.
Upload a clear image of the transformer exterior. The Vision Agent will automatically analyze the structure, components, and visible areas.
Once processing is complete, you will receive a structured output with detected damages or abnormalities. These insights can include corrosion, cracks, leaks, damaged surfaces, or any visible irregularities.
This structured result can be used for reporting, maintenance planning, or integrating with your workflow through automation tools.
Tiliter brings accuracy, speed, and consistency to a process that is often slow and manual. The Transformer Exterior Inspector Agent helps teams avoid risks, reduce downtime, and make more informed decisions.
You get:
Transformer inspection is a vital part of asset management. With Tiliter’s Transformer Exterior Inspector Agent, teams can automate the process and inspect transformers faster, safer, and with better accuracy. Vision AI makes it simple to detect damage early and prevent costly failures long before they happen.
