INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 Hermetically sealed ONAN Conservator Type OFAF Conservator Type OFAF INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 4.2.2 VA RATING Every transformer has a maximum output current that it can deliver at its standard output voltage. This VA rating (KVA or MVA for large power transformers) is dependent on the ambient temperature or cooling provided. Exceeding the VA rating will cause overheating of the core and windings and subsequent damage INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 ContinueThe capacity of a power transformer is defined by full load power, in kVA it can produce. S U ph I ph x10 3 x 3 Where S = Full load Power Uph= rated voltage at no load (V) Iph = rated output current (A) For Star Connection: I phase= Sx10 3 3xU ph Phase Voltage= U ph 3 INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 4.2.3 VOLTAGE RATING Transformer rated voltage is usually specified by the voltage ratio Example: 11/0.415kV ; Primary rated Voltage : 11kV Secondary rated Voltage: 0.415kV 4.2.4 WINDING EXAMPLE: PRIMARY : DELTA SECONDARY: STAR 4.2.5 VEKTOR GROUP The vector groups denotes denotes the way the transformers windings are connected: INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 Continue: Example: Dy11 D= HV delta winding y= low voltage star winding 11=clock face (30 degrees lead) with reference to the HV 12 o’clock INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 Continue: Winding falls into three main types: star, delta, and zigzag Can be categorised into four groups Group1: 0 degress phase shift: Yy0,Dd0,Dz0,Zd0 Group 2: 1800 deg phase shift: Yy6, Dd6, Zd6, Dz6 Group 3: -30 deg phase shift: Dy1, Yd1, Yz1, Zy1 Group 4: +30 deg phaseshift:Dy11,Yd11,Yz11,Zy11 INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 4.2.6: IMPEDANCE The impedance of transformers is express in percentage values to Enable fault level calculations to be carried out Example: 11/0.416kV Impedance: 4.75% Fault level: Transformer _ rating (V .

Only certain kVA transformer need to be installed with one, normally above 1MVA. It will be connected to the trip coil of the circuit breaker controlling the transformer or the installation INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 Continue Principles of operation: Electrical faults cause violent generation of gases, which flows to the highest point, namely the conservator. This gases will Trapped inside the Bucholz compartment causing the level of oil to reduce thus causing the relay to initiate. INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 continue”: Buchholz relay can be triggered by three operation 1) Air from atmosphere while filling the transformer oil 2) Mechanical failure 3) Insulation breakdown from oil 4) Winding insulation breakdown Gas formed usually consists of hydrogen, Acetylene and carbon monoxide. INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 Continue: 1) If the gas only contained less then 2% carbon monoxide, only breakdown in oil occurs. 2) If the gas contained more then 20%, the fault are due to both breakdown of oil and insulation INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 4.6 COMMISSIONING TESTS 4.6.1 DATA COLLECTION - manufacture and date of manufacturer - serial Number - rating-normal and assisted - nominal voltages - full load current at nominal tap - percentage impedance - vektor group - tap changer type, range and no of tap INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 4.6.2 General check and Inspection -Coordinating Gaps -Labelling -Earth Connections -Breathers -Valves in operational position -Tightness of fastening -Insulators undamaged and clean -No oil leaks -Correct oil levels in conservators INSUALTION TEST OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TESTING AND COMMISIONING DET310 4.6.3 Insulation Tests 1.
