Transformer
Transformer
The large power transformers used in generating
stiffening
2. Winding: Paper insulated copper conductor
3. Core: Assembled from thin low loss magnetic
steel sheet
4. Oil:
Mineral insulating oil of high electrical
strength
In addition there are many fittings and accessories,
controlling and safety devices associated with the
large power transformers
Transformer Tank
1.2.Vacuum withstand test.
At an internal pressure of 25 torr for
Transformer winding
2.0. Winding
2.1. Generally bare copper
conductor or enameled
copper conductor in
rectangular section with
multi layer Kraft insulating
paper covering is used.
The dimensional
verification of conductor
size, enamel coating
thickness, paper covering
thickness and the method
of paper wrapping is
checked according to
drawing and specification.
Transformer winding
2.2.
In
large
power
transformers the windings are
subjected to high voltage
stresses.
The
withstand
capacity
of
insulation covering is largely
dependent
on
the
smooth
rounding of the corners and burr
free conductor.
3.0 Core
3.1. Various grades of
low loss magnetic steels
sheets are available.
The designer specifies
the specific grade of
steel for a particular
design
depending
upon the overall cost
and agreed losses in
that rating of the
transformer.
The verification of the
grade of steel is done
in the laboratory.
CORE
3.2. After various
operations of
slitting, cropping,
piercing, deburring, and
assembly of core
according to
drawing, it is
clamped with
clamp plates and
yoke through yoke
bolts.
Transformer core
4.0
Transformer oil
The
function
of
transformer oil is many
fold
4.1. Good insulating media
in a highly voltage stress
surrounding,
4.2.
Improve
dielectric
characteristics of cellulose
paper after impregnation
into the pores of paper.
4.3. To carry heat from
active parts like winding,
core,
insulation
to
dissipating surfaces like
tank wall, radiators or
Transformer oil
4.4.
It
quenches
arc
developed in diverter or
selector switch of the tap
changer or due to minor fault
in the windings
4.5. It also protects the
cellulose
insulation
from
absorption of moisture and
there by maintaining its life
span.
4.6. To ensure the desired
properties of the transformer
oil
following
tests
are
performed
during
manufacturing stage
4.6.1. Electrical strength 70
KV minimum
Transformer oil
4.6.3. Tan delta at 90
degree C = 0.01 max
4.6.4. Resistivity at 90
degree C= 6X 10 ^12 ohm

process,
final
tests
such as routine tests,
type tests and special
tests shall be covered
in next session
