Transport, installation and commissioning of power transformers

Kenneth Budin ; Wilson Transformer

Sažetak

Whilst much attention is quite rightly given to power transformer design, manufacturing and factory acceptance testing, the final stages of the supply chain are equally important, namely transport, installation and commissioning. The health of the transformer is critically dependent on safe and careful handling during transport and unloading where sudden impacts or shocks can lead to damage of critical components. Of equal importance are the processes and practices used at site during assembly, vacuum processing and addition of the insulating fluid. Commissioning tests ensure that the transformer has not been damaged during handling, that active component connections are correct and that the transformer protection and monitoring systems are operational. This paper will address these issues and provide guidance on world’s best practices to ensure a positive outcome for the supplier and the end customer.
