CPP History Board

The document discusses the history of repairs and replacements for the gas turbine cores of a power plant. The original core was replaced twice by 2002 due to running hours and seal problems. In 2004 and 2005, blades were replaced due to quality issues. The current core failed at 19,070 hours. To improve reliability, the power plant plans to conduct regular inspections, explore alternative core manufacturers, procure a spare core engine, and pursue a long-term service agreement.
