Output S = V × I (1?) or S = ?3 × V × I (3?). Real output depends on load PF: P = S × PF.
enero 28, 2026 a las 12:24 am en respuesta a: What is tan delta test of a power transformer? #332345Patrick ScottMiembroTan delta (dissipation factor) test evaluates dielectric health of windings, bushings, and insulation oil. It measures how much energy is lost as heat due to dielectric imperfections. High tan ? indicates moisture, aging, contamination, or partial discharge activity. Utilities rely on trend analysis and comparison with IEEE/IEC limits during maintenance and commissioning.
Patrick ScottMiembroApparent power S (kVA/MVA) combines real P (kW) and reactive Q (kVAr). Defined as S = ?(P² + Q²). Governs transformer sizing.
enero 27, 2026 a las 4:26 pm en respuesta a: What is the main difference between distribution transformer and power transformer? #332283Patrick ScottMiembroPower transformers handle transmission-level MVA and operate near rated load; distribution units serve LV loads and excel at part-load efficiency.
enero 26, 2026 a las 2:38 am en respuesta a: How is a power transformer winding calculator used for design? #331957Patrick ScottMiembroWinding calculators allow designers to determine turns, conductor gauge, window fill, flux density, and copper losses based on kVA, voltage, and frequency. They help verify that thermal and mechanical limits are respected.
enero 24, 2026 a las 8:34 pm en respuesta a: What is the function of a station transformer in a power plant? #331729Patrick ScottMiembroStation transformers feed auxiliary loads such as pumps, fans, controls and lighting from generator or grid voltage to service voltage.
enero 24, 2026 a las 4:11 pm en respuesta a: How much copper is typically inside a power pole transformer? #331695Patrick ScottMiembroSingle-phase distribution transformers (5-50 kVA) contain several kilograms to tens of kilograms of copper depending on kVA, impedance, and design.
enero 23, 2026 a las 12:53 am en respuesta a: What does maintenance of a power transformer involve? #331363Patrick ScottMiembroMaintenance involves inspections, oil sampling and DGA tests, insulation diagnostics, bushing checks, OLTC servicing, cooling system verification, partial discharge monitoring, thermographic surveys, grounding inspections, and trending of electrical parameters. The goal is to prolong service life and prevent unplanned outages.
enero 22, 2026 a las 5:34 am en respuesta a: How does the regeneration process of the CMM-12R oil regeneration systems improve oil quality? #331165Patrick ScottMiembroThe regeneration process uses sorbent adsorption, filtration, and vacuum treatment to remove contaminants, resulting in significantly improved dielectric strength, oxidation resistance, reduced acid number, and lowered gas solubility, thus restoring oil properties to meet standards.
enero 21, 2026 a las 5:56 pm en respuesta a: What vacuum levels and temperature ranges can the US-6S achieve? #330998Patrick ScottMiembroThe US-6S vacuum system is capable of achieving an operating vacuum around 1 mbar, which promotes rapid moisture evaporation even from deep insulation layers. Temperature control typically ranges from ambient up to about 120°C, enabling effective drying without damaging paper insulation. Automated systems regulate both parameters for controlled processing.
enero 20, 2026 a las 1:18 pm en respuesta a: What method does the TOR-5 online monitoring system use to remove moisture from the oil? #330565Patrick ScottMiembroThe TOR-5 removes moisture from the oil by a sorption-based drying method using zeolite-filled adsorber cartridges. Oil is continuously circulated through the sorbent, where dissolved water is physically adsorbed onto the zeolite surface. There is no heating or vacuum involved in the standard configuration, which makes the process safe for energized transformers. The key idea is long-term stabilization: by keeping oil moisture low, the system gradually draws water out of the paper insulation through equilibrium, reducing overall insulation moisture over time.
enero 20, 2026 a las 12:24 pm en respuesta a: Does the TOR-5 system dry only the oil, or also the paper insulation? #330547Patrick ScottMiembroThe TOR-5 does not dry only the oil in isolation – its main practical effect is the gradual reduction of moisture in the entire insulation system, including paper. Since moisture continuously migrates between oil and cellulose, drying the oil creates a concentration gradient that pulls water out of the paper over time. This is a slow equilibrium-driven process, but in long-term operation it leads to a real decrease of paper moisture content. It is not a fast regeneration method, but a continuous conditioning approach that stabilizes the whole insulation system.
enero 19, 2026 a las 5:26 am en respuesta a: What is a transformer power box used for in electrical distribution? #330294Patrick ScottMiembroA transformer power box (kiosk or pad-mounted enclosure) houses a distribution transformer and protective devices that step medium voltage down to low voltage for buildings or residential streets. The box provides physical protection, tamper resistance and weatherproofing while enabling underground distribution networks common in urban areas.
