2. Transformer description
2.1 Hermetically Sealed Transformers
Hermetically sealed transformers are air-tight. No conservator or air cushion will guarantee that transformer oil does not come
into contact with atmosphere, which brings about its accelerated deterioration. Transformers are filled with oil at ambient
temperature of about 20°C and very low, near-vacuum pressure. This ensures that oil will pervade transformer windings
completely and no air remains in small crevices between coils. After sealing, pressure inside the transformer is equal to normal
atmospheric pressure. Changes of oil temperature and volume during normal transformer operation cause either increase or
decrease of internal pressure, which is absorbed by flexible corrugated walls of transformer tank.
The fins will not deform permanently if transformer is loaded in accordance with guidelines set out in IEC publication 354/1972
or Polish Norms publication PN71/E-81000.
2.2 Free breathing transformers (with conservator tank)
In this type of transformer, a conservator (an additional dedicated tank mounted on the transformer cover) compensates for any
volume changes in transformer oil, relieving radiator fins from this task. The conservator is connected with transformer tank.
This connection enables flow of oil between both vessels when its volume changes. Transformer oil does not come into direct
contact with the atmosphere thanks to silica-gel dehydrating breather that absorbs all moisture from air and prevents it from
entering the transformer tank. Conservator is equipped with a magnetic oil level indicator located on the bottom or the
conservator tank.
2.3 Mechanical Strength of Tank
Oil-immersed transformer tanks are guaranteed to withstand without any permanent deformation internal pressure of about
±300 hPa.
2.4 Loading of Transformers
Transformers should be loaded in accordance with standards they have been designed to meet.
In particular, it is recommended to observe regulations included in the following documents:
— Polish Standard PN71/E-81000: Transformers with natural oil circulation — load conditions and operation.
— IEC Publication 354/1972: Loading guide for oil-immersed transformers.
2.5 Short-circuit withstand capacity
Transformers are designed and guaranteed to withstand without any damage all mechanical and thermal effects of short-circuit
according to IEC 76 or Polish Standard PN-IEC 76-1.
2.6 Withstand Voltage
Transformers are designed and guaranteed to withstand without any damage all test voltages within the range specified in
IEC76 or Polish Standard PN-IEC 76-1.
3. Transformer Construction and Design
3.1 Core
Transformer’s core is made of grain oriented, low loss magnetic cold-rolled silicon steel. Both sides of steel sheets are
laminated with ceramic insulation. The core construction is optimised for cold-rolled steel properties so that best parameters for
magnetic circuit are obtained, i.e. minimum no-load losses and small magnetising power.
The core is of column-type.
3.2 Windings
Transformer’s windings are made of electrolytic copper. High voltage windings are multi-layer type. Interlayer insulation is made
from cable insulating paper, presspan and transformer oil. Low voltage windings are wound with profile wire or copper foil
insulated with diamond dotted paper and presspan. Windings are wound directly onto the core columns and pressed by means
of top and bottom yoke clamps.
3.3 Tap Changer
Transformer is equipped with a three-phase off-load tap changer enabling voltage regulation when the transformer is deenergised. The tap changer’s drive operates synchronously on all three phases and its handle/dial is located on the
transformer’s top cover. Voltage regulation is realised by means of turning the tap changer’s dial to a required position. Tap
changer may NOT be used when the transformer is energised.
!
Warning! Failing to de-energise the transformer prior to voltage regulation may result in severe
injury or death!
All rights in this document and in the information contained therein reserved. Reproduction, use or disclosure to third parties without authorisation is strictly forbidden. Copyright  2002, ABB Sp z o.o Branch Elta Lodz, Poland
Tap changer’s dial incorporates perforated ring and locking pins that ensure correct positioning (setting) of the dial after voltage
regulation.
In commutable transformers there are two tap changer dials on the cover. One of them is used for selecting one or two possible
high voltage (HV) settings while the other allows small-step voltage regulation.
3.4 Tank
Hermetically sealed transformers incorporate a tank with corrugated walls designed to act as radiator fins.
Free breathing transformers (conservator type) may have either corrugated or radiator tank.
In radiator tanks, the radiators are mounted on the tank walls. All radiators have valves located on a connecting pipe between
the radiator and tank wall. These valves must be open during normal transformer operation, as this will allow for natural
circulation and cooling of transformer oil. (Closed) Valves make it possible to replace a radiator without the need to drain
transformer oil for the tank.
Transformer tank has a sturdy design that allows for normal transportation of an oil-filled transformer without any damage
resulting from vibration.
Tank’s undercarriage has facilities for securing the transformer firmly in place during transportation by means of synthetic belts
or ropes of high mechanical strength.
The following facilities can be found in the lower part of the tank:
— drain/sampling valve.
— sampling valve (optionally, in addition to drain valve)
— undercarriage frame with bi-directional (90°) wheels and earthing terminals.
The undercarriage frame has holes designed for pulling transformer by short distances on a smooth surface.
!
Attention! Pulling transformer by the bars reinforcing corrugated walls of the tank may result in
damage to the tank or oil leakage.
3.5 Cover
The following facilities can be found on transformer cover:
— 2 lifting lugs for lifting the transformer or its active part
— oil level indicator pocket (in hermetically sealed transformers)
— filling orifice for filling the tank with oil (in hermetically sealed transformers)
— thermometer pocket (optional)
— DGPT-2 pocket (optional)
— connecting socket for conservator (in conservator-type transformers)
— high and low voltage bushings
— earthing terminal(s) (optional)
3.6 Conservator
The cylindrical vessel called conservator is located horizontally over the cover. In some versions, the pipe connecting
conservator and the cover may be equipped with a gas-flow relay.
Located at the bottom of the conservator vessel is a magnetic oil level indicator showing current oil level in the transformer.
Oil filling inlet can be found at the top of conservator vessel.
It may be either tightly sealed with a cap or have a short pipe leading to a silica gel breather providing means of balancing
internal and external pressure.
Conservator versions with a sealing cap only have the silica gel breather built-in and the breather’s air inlet is located
underneath the conservator vessel.
Optionally, conservator vessel may be equipped with a drain valve for removal of sediment or excess water.
3.7 Transformer Oil
Transformers are filled with mineral oil. Prior to filling, oil is treated in order to obtain required electrical characteristics and
insulating properties. The value of breakdown voltage in a sample of treated new transformer oil should not lower than
45kV/2.5mm in a system defined by applicable norms. If measured value of breakdown voltage is lower oil needs to be
regenerated by filtering or equivalent method.
On request transformer may be filled with biodegradable synthetic oil.

4. Transformer accessories and equipment
Please refer to transformer’s technical specification and dimension drawing for a complete list of installed accessories and
additional equipment.
4.1 Thermometer pocket
Transformer is equipped with a thermometer pocket enabling installation of mercury or double contact thermometer. To take a
measurement thermometer pocket must half-filled with transformer oil. Unused pocket must be sealed to prevent water or air
from entering the transformer. If not sealed, in temperatures below 0°C expanding ice may damage the pocket.
4.2 Double contact thermometer
Thermometer is equipped with two switch-over electrical contacts that may be connected to trip and alarm circuits. The switchover contacts are designed for 250V DC or AC. The respective alarm or trip circuit is closed when the pointer (hand) crosses the
pre-set (user adjustable) value on the thermometer’s face.
Thermometer’s range is: 0°C—120°C. Thermometer probe has length of 140mm and is immersed in oil. Thermometer may be
mounted in pockets with R¾” or R1” thread. Maximum cross-section of connecting cables is 6´1-2.5mm2.
Thermometer alarm & trip settings:
— alarm
95°C
— trip
105°C
4.3 Safety Valve
The transformer tank filled with cooling liquid is a container subject to internal pressure. It needs to be provided with one or
more safety valves suitably calibrated for the maximum allowed pressure, so that overpressure caused by internal faults can be
instantaneously relieved. This will prevent any greater damage such as the deformation or even explosion of the tank that may
result in fire risks.
Safety valve’s rated overpressure is 0.030—0.035 MPa (0.3—0.35 at).
4.4 Buchholz Relay (in free breathing, conservator-type transformers)
Gas and oil actuated (Buchholz) relay is designed to detect faults as well as minimise propagation of any damage, which may
occur within oil-filled transformers.
Buchholz relay incorporates two floats and two contacts for alarm and trip. It is mounted in on the pipe connecting transformer
and the conservator.
An arrow on the relay cover must point at the conservator.
Signalling:
gas accumulation — alarm
missing oil — trip
Connector characteristics: voltage rating 24 – 240V AC or DC rated current 0.5A
4.5 DGPT-2 (in hermetically sealed transformers)
DGPT-2 is a universal multi-function protection device. Its functions include the following:
—
detection of gas emissions or small oil leakage
—
overpressure or major leakage detection; detection range: 100 — 500mbar
—
oil temperature rise detection; detection range 30 — 120°C ±3°C
—
oil temperature indication within the range 30 — 120°C ±5°C.
DGPT-2 has a set of dedicated electrical terminals for each function. Terminals are either normally closed or normally open and
can trigger alarm or trip. All contacts have the capacity to withstand loads of at least 1A depending on voltage and load type.
