dc.description.abstract	This case study presents lessons learned during the retrofit of two 75-year old Turbo Generator (TG) overspeed trip systems to meet the latest edition of API 612. The effort was initiated due to reliability issues with the overspeed trip system. Risk analysis was conducted to quantify the problem and justify the upgrade project with management. The solution integrates the latest technologies utilized by two major turbine manufacturers. Challenges encountered during construction, commissioning and operation are discussed so learnings may be utilized by others who are contemplating updates to overspeed trip systems.
