Transformers are essential in power systems because they enable efficient transmission and distribution of electricity over long distances. By stepping voltage up, they reduce current and I²R losses in lines, making high voltage transmission economical. Later they step voltage down to safe levels for distribution and end use. Without transformers, generation, transmission and utilization would all have to occur at similar voltage, which is impractical. They also allow interconnection of grids with different voltage levels, support voltage regulation and provide isolation for safety and fault control.

Surges arise from switching, lightning, ferroresonance, or load rejection, stressing insulation and causing partial discharge.
一月 24, 2026 9:04 下午 回复至： When are step down power transformers preferred over electronic voltage converters? #331733Step-down transformers are preferred for AC loads needing isolation, higher surge tolerance, or compatibility with inductive loads, while electronic converters suit small electronic devices.
Same category: medium-voltage distribution, metering, and feeder supply for utilities and municipalities.
一月 23, 2026 4:48 下午 回复至： Why are power conditioning transformers used for sensitive equipment? #331504Power conditioning transformers provide isolation, voltage stabilization and sometimes noise reduction for sensitive loads such as medical devices, laboratory instruments, broadcast equipment and critical IT systems. They help filter common mode noise, reduce voltage spikes, and create a clean reference ground. Some designs include ferroresonant or regulating functions that maintain output voltage during input fluctuations. By improving power quality at the point of use, conditioning transformers protect sensitive electronics from disturbances that could cause malfunction, data loss or premature failure.
Methods include layer, helical, disc, and continuous windings, selected for current rating, cooling, mechanical strength, and short-circuit withstand.
The unit supports customizable three-phase input (e.g., 380 V, with options for 240 V, 400 V, or 480 V at 50/60 Hz) as well as operation via onboard generator. This flexibility allows integration into various regional power grids or standalone use where external power is unavailable.

The ability to pump oil to heights up to 105 m at 5 bar pressure enables the CMM-G to serve turbines of various sizes and manufacturer designs without additional boosting equipment, making it suitable across onshore and offshore fleets.
Yes, modern LFD systems are usually equipped with automatic or semi-automatic control, and this is considered best practice for large transformers. In real time, the system typically measures winding temperatures at several points, applied current and voltage, vacuum level, and moisture evolution rate from the condenser or exhaust. These signals are used to automatically adjust heating power and maintain safe temperature limits. Automation is important not only for efficiency, but also to prevent local overheating and to determine the true end point of drying based on moisture release, not just elapsed time.
Yes – the filters (adsorbent cartridges) in the CMM-260C continuous drying unit can be reused after regeneration, they do not have to be thrown away after a single use. In the standard setup, the zeolite adsorbent that captures moisture can be reactivated using a dedicated zeolite regeneration unit (such as the BRPS/BRZ system), and then re-loaded into the CMM-260C. Alternatively, if regeneration is not done on-site, the cartridges can be dismantled and replaced with new ones and the spent sorbent returned for later reactivation. So you have two practical workflows: periodic zeolite regeneration and reuse, which saves operating costs and reduces waste, cartridge replacement with new sorbent, followed by off-line regeneration of the spent material. Both approaches are supported by GlobeCore’s product ecosystem.
Geomagnetic storms induce quasi-DC currents in transmission lines that drive half-cycle saturation in transformer cores. This increases reactive power demand, heating, and harmonics, sometimes tripping protection or accelerating insulation aging. Utilities mitigate with series capacitors, monitoring, and grid procedures during solar events.
Yes – TOR-5’s interface already supports multiple languages, including French in the official web app and product pages. GlobeCore’s online system offers localized UI options such as FR (French), ES, PT, DE, and others alongside English in its web interface. So if your current view is in English, you or your administrator should be able to switch to French in the settings or language selection menu of the web application without needing a separate version
一月 20, 2026 9:21 下午 回复至： Can the TOR-5 online monitoring system be used only with one transformer, or is it portable? #330680In most installations, TOR-5 is intended as a permanently mounted system for one specific transformer, because its value comes from continuous trend monitoring and long-term data history. While the hardware itself could theoretically be disconnected and moved, this is not the typical mode of use. Portability breaks trend continuity and requires repeated installation, flushing, and recalibration. For periodic checks on multiple units, portable analyzers are usually more practical, while TOR-5 is justified mainly for critical transformers that benefit from continuous online monitoring.
一月 20, 2026 5:43 下午 回复至： How is transformer power calculation performed for capacity and loading? #330628Engineers calculate peak and continuous kVA demand, adjust for power factor, harmonics, and duty cycle, then apply safety margins for load growth and emergency ratings.
Electrical networks use power transformers to step up voltage for transmission, step down for distribution, and isolate sections of the grid. They reduce current for long distance efficiency and adapt voltage to consumer levels.
During operation, load-dependent copper losses increase with the square of current, while core losses remain nearly constant at rated voltage. Harmonics, unbalanced loading, and high ambient temperatures can exacerbate losses. Stray losses in clamping structures, shields, and tank walls become significant in large units. OLTC transitions may introduce additional resistance and heating. Adequate maintenance and correct tap settings help keep losses close to design values and reduce unnecessary energy waste.
AC in primary creates alternating flux; induced secondary voltage follows turns ratio.
