It is important that from the presentations one can also learn valuable professional information that is useful in further work”, — stressed Yury Gordeev, a member of the team of Bryanskenergo, Electrician for testing and measurement of Klintsovsky site of the diagnostics service.
“I would like to wish the teams not only show good results, but also learn from each other innovative methods of work, to look at what instruments, tools and devices used by other teams. Then all innovations can be disseminated by team members in their subdivisions” — said Oleg Rochagov.

“This support is very important to us, — says Vitaly Komarov, a representative of the team of Kostromaenergo, Electrician for testing and measurement of Sharinsky site of the diagnostics service. — All this contributes to the professional team unity and focus on achieving good results. Thank you all!”
Participation in the competition, of course, requires special efforts. Therefore, a rehabilitation room is provided for power engineers at the site. A physiotherapeutic room is in operation, at which all participants and guests can enjoy oxygen cocktails. Doctors are watching the physical condition of the participants.
