INTRODUCTION

With the development of technology thats soaring in our world, the power
system experiences a great improvement. Therefore, transmission and distribution of
electricity plays important crucial role to provide electricity to consumer. To have a
good distribution system, it is essential to have a good transmission system.
Transmission of electricity is the bulk movement of electrical energy, from generating
power plants to electrical substations located near demand centers. Normally
transmission of electricity is categorized into primary part and secondary part. This
study focuses on the primary side transformer of the transmission line. The primary
side at common uses a power transformer for stepping down the voltage from 275kV
to 33kV. A power transformer makes an efficient electrical power transmission that
step-up the lower level power or step-down the higher level power. This low voltage
power if transmitted results in greater line current which will cause more line losses.
But if the voltage level of a power is increased, the current of the power is reduced
which causes reduction in Ohmic or losses in the system, reduction in cross-sectional
area of the conductor also means reduction in capital cost of the system and it
improves the voltage regulation of the system.

PROBLEM STATEMENT

Demand of power has been increasing extensively over the years. In most
countries, commercial power is made available via nationwide grid, interconnecting
numerous generating stations to the loads. Basic national needs of residential,
lighting, heating, refrigeration, air conditions, and transportation as well as critical
supply to governmental, industrial, financial, commercial, medical and
communication communities should be able to be provided by the grid system. The
modern world today is able to function at its busy pace due to the enabling of the
commercial power. Modern technology is highly sophisticated till it has reached
profoundly into our homes and careers, and with the promoting of e-commerce, the
interaction process between the worlds is continuously changing.

Therefore, the causes of these problems has being investigated and the selection
of the ideal transformer is carried out to reduce the problem in the transmission lines.
OBJECTIVES

The project objectives that has been recognized is:

1. To study the purpose of this modern HVAC transformer (275KV-33KV) is being

developed.

2. To study on the improvements that has taken place on modern HVAC transformer
(275KV-33KV).
3. To identify the problems causing breakdown in HVAC conventional transformer.
