Failures in dry-type transformers for offshore applications
Derek Foster
Abstract
This article focuses on failures involving dry-type transformers in offshore applications. It addresses the most common causes of failures and the modes of failure. Recommendations are provided for use by specification engineers and end-users to reduce the possibility of failures, including preparation of a suitable specification, siting concerns, operation and maintenance guidelines and procedures needed to be performed after a failure in order to minimize the resulting disruption.
