General Information
The UZ types of on-load tap-changers operates according to the selector switch principle, that is, the tap selector and diverter switch functions are combined in one. The UZ types of on-load tap-changers are mounted on the outside of the transformer tank. All of the equipment necessary to operate the tap-changer is contained in a single compartment, with the motor-drive mechanism attached to the outside. Because the UZ types are designed for mounting on the outside of the transformer tank installation procedures are simplified and the overall size of the transformer tank can be reduced. Standard tanks are designed for the UZ types. The standard tanks have a number of standard flanges to get great flexibility for accessories. Standard accessories are pressure relay and oil valve. See Figs. 1a and 1b. A great number of extra accessories can be ordered. See Figs. 2a and 2b. As a design option, the UZ types can be supplied without the tank. This gives the transformer manufacturer the flexibility to design the tap-changer tank as an integral part of the transformer tank.

Design Principles
On-Load Tap-Changer
The tap-changer is built-up by using single-phase units, each identical, mounted in the openings on the rear of the compartment. Each single-phase unit consists of an epoxy-resin moulding, a selector switch, transition resistors and, in most cases, a change-over selector.

Selector Switch
The selector switch consists of fixed contacts and a moving contact system. The fixed contacts are mounted onto a bracket which is screwed onto the terminals previously moulded into the epoxy-resin moulding. Each fixed contact has two contact paths, one for the main moving contact and one for the moving switching contacts. The moving contact system consists of the main contact, the main switching contact and two transition contacts. The system is built as a rigid unit rotated by a common drive-shaft. In the service position the load current is carried by the moving main contact, which consists of two contact fingers, pressed onto the fixed contact by springs. The moving switching contacts and the transition contacts are made as rollers, see Fig. 5, which move over the knife-like fixed contacts. The making and breaking takes place between the fixed and moving switching contacts. The switching contacts are made of copper/tungsten, or in the case of tap-changers for lower currents, the contacts are made of copper.

Epoxy-Resin Moulding
The one-piece moulding provides a bushing between the transformer and the tap-changer. The conductors are moulded into position to connect the fixed contacts to the terminals for connection to the transformer windings. Also moulded into the unit are bearings for the selector switch and the change-over selector. The terminals on the moulding are numbered according to the schematic diagrams, see the section Design, Installation, and Maintenance contained in this Guide.

L036257

Fig. 5. Moving contact system

Transition Resistors
The resistors are made from spirally wound wire mounted on insulating bobbins. They are connected between the moving main contact and the transition contacts.

Change-over Selector
The change-over selector is used for reversing the regulating winding or for changing connection in the coarse/fine regulation. The selector consists of a moving contact and two fixed contacts. The moving contact is fixed to a shaft and is supported by a bearing in the moulding. The current is carried by the four contact fingers of the moving arm, and transferred to the fixed contacts. The change-over selector does not make or break the current during operation.

Fig. 6. Selector switch

Geneva Gear
The Geneva gear principle is used to change a rotary motion into a stepping motion. Drive is transmitted directly from the motor-drive mechanism to the Geneva gear. The Geneva gear operates the selector switch and the change-over selector. The Geneva gear is also used to lock the moving contact system when it is in position.

Tap-Changer Tank
A standard tank is designed for each size of UZE and UZF. The standard tanks have a number of standard flanges intended for a great variety of accessories. Flanges that are not used are mounted with greyblue covers. Adapter flanges can be bolted on if the sizes of the standard flanges not are suitable. Standard accessories are pressure relay and oil valve. A great number of extra accessories can be ordered. Dimensions and accessories for the tap-changer tanks are shown on pages 28 to 31. The tap-changer tank can be bolted (standard) or welded to the transformer tank. A non-standard tank can also be ordered, but to a higher price and a longer delivery time than the standard tank. When the on-load tap-changer operates, arcing occurs in the tap-changer. To avoid contamination of the transformer oil, the tap-changer is housed in its own tank separated from the transformer oil. All components that make and break the current during the operation of the tap-changer are located in the tap-changer tank. The tap-changer tank is separated from the transformer tank by a vacuum-proof barrier, designed to withstand a maximum test pressure of 100 kPa, at a maximum of 60 oC. The barrier and the gasket are oil-tight, which means that they are designed and routinely tested for a permissible air leak at each leak location of 0.0001 cm3/s, at a pressure difference of 100 kPa and a temperature of 20 oC. This safely guarantees the contaminated tapchanger oil to remain separated from the transformer oil. It should be noted that the barrier has not been designed to allow for a simultaneous over-pressure on one side, and vacuum on the other. All models are supplied with an oil valve, for filling and draining.

TC_00267

Oil Conservator
Normally the oil compartment of the tap-changer shall be connected to a conservator, separated from the oil of the transformer. If the transformer oil is to be supervised by gas-in-oil analyses, the conservator for the tap-changer oil should have no connection to the conservator of the transformer on either the oil or the air side. For use on a sealed tank transformer a special version can be supplied, in which UZE includes the volume needed for oil expansion, an oil level indicator and a breather. UZF needs an own conservator, which can be supplied mounted on the top of the tap-changer tank. The oil pressure difference between the transformer and the tap-changer should not exceed 10 kPa or 1.2 metres oil column. If the pressure difference is between 10 and 70 kPa a reinforced barrier should be ordered. For the version for sealed tank transformers the pressure difference is allowed to be up to 70 kPa (10 Psi) and for that version the reinforced barrier is delivered. The set point for the pressure relay connected to the UZ tank is 50 kPa (7 Psi). For further information, see page 27 or pamphlet 1ZSE 5492-151.

Accessories for the Tap-Changer


Accessories for the tap-changer are shown on dimension prints on pages 30 and 31. For a list of accessories see the Selection Guide or consult ABB Components.

Special Applications
ABB Components should be consulted for all special application tap-changers, such as sealed tank transformers or transformers for use with arc-furnaces and converters.

Fig. 9. Motor-drive mechanism

Motor-Drive Mechanism
The motor-drive mechanism provides the drive to allow the tap-changer to operate. As the name implies, drive is provided from a motor through a series of gears and on to a spring energy storage device, which when fully charged, operates the tap-changer via a drive shaft. Several features are incorporated within the mechanism to promote long service intervals and reliability. For a detailed operating description, see the section Principles of Operation contained in this guide.

Motor-Drive Mechanism Cubicle


The cubicle is manufactured from steel and is welded to the outside of the tap-changer tank. The door, which can be padlocked, forms a cap around the mechanism to allow easy access to all the working parts. Vents, with filters, and a heater are fitted to ensure that the mechanism remains operative in varied climates.

Degree of Protection
The motor-drive mechanism has passed a test for IP 54 according to IEC 529.

Accessories for the Motor-Drive Mechanism


Accessories for the motor-drive mechanism are described on page 20. For a list of accessories see the Selection Guide or consult ABB Components. 9

Principles of Operation
On-Load Tap-Changer
Switching Sequence
The switching sequence is designated the symmetrical flag cycle. This means that the main switching contact of the selector switch breaks before the transition resistors are connected across the regulating step. This ensures maximum reliability when the switch operates with overloads. At rated load the breaking takes place at the first current zero after contact separation, which means an average arcing time of approximately 6 milliseconds at 50 Hz. The total time for a complete sequence is approximately 50 milliseconds. The tap change operation time of the motor-drive mechanism is approximately 3 seconds per step.

Fig. 10c.
The transition contact M1 has made on the fixed contact 2. The load current is divided between the transition contacts M1 and M2. The circulating current is limited by the resistors.

Selector Switch
The switching sequence when switching from position 1 to position 2 is shown in the diagrams of Figs. 10a-e below. The moving contact H is shown as one contact but consists in fact of two, the main contact and the main switching contact. The main contact opens before and closes after the main switching contact.

Fig. 10d.
The transition contact M2 has broken at the fixed contact 1. The transition resistor and the transition contact M1 carry the load current.

For plus/minus and coarse/fine switching, the changeover selector is used.

Change-over Selector for Plus/Minus Switching


The switching sequence, when the change-over selector R changes over for plus/minus switching, is shown in the diagrams of Figs. 11a and 11b. The contact arm of the selector switch has reached the fixed contact 12 after switching from the fixed contact 11. The fixed contact 12 is wide enough to cover the whole distance between two positions of the selector switch. It is connected to the end of the main winding. The contact arm of the selector switch has travelled on to the contact 12, and the change-over selector R is in offload condition. The load current goes directly from the main winding through the contact 12 and out through the current collector at the centre of the contact arm. The upper end of the regulating winding is still connected to the main winding. This is the service position. The contact arm of the selector switch has travelled further on the contact 12 without any breaking or making of the current. At the same time the contact arm of the change-over selector R, has travelled from contact B to contact C, through which the lower end of the regulating winding has been connected to the main winding. This is called a through position, see Through Positions.

Fig. 11a. Service position

Fig. 11b. Through position

Change-over Selector for Coarse/Fine Switching


The mechanical switching is exactly the same as for the plus/minus switching, the electrical switching is different however. The change-over selector connects or disconnects the coarse winding.

Through Positions
A so called Through Position is a position the tapchanger has to pass without changing the ratio of the transformer. Figs. 11a-b shows how the change-over selector is operated, while the selector moves over the double fixed contact. The extra position has the same number on the scale of the position indicator, together with a letter, e.g. 12A. There might be need for more through positions over the operating range if the number of taps of the winding is less than the number of mechanical positions of the selector. The motor-drive will automatically pass the through positions.

Operational Description
Drive is via a V-belt from the motor transmitted through a system of spur gears to the drive pin of the cam wheel. The spring energy storage device is charged by this pin. During the rotation the cam wheel drive pin tensions the springs. When the drive pin reaches its lowest position on the cam wheel the springs are released, and with the assistance of the flywheel, the drive is transmitted to the outgoing drive shaft and the driving disc. The driving disc operates the Geneva gear within the tap-changer. The flywheel is stopped by a disc brake, which also operates the starting contact. The outgoing drive shaft, via a chain, drives the Geneva gear of the indicating device. The indicating device consists of the mechanical position indicator, the mechanism for operating the electrical and mechanical limit stop, and the position transmitter. The maintaining contact is operated by the cam wheel. 12

Note: The numbered references under the following sections are to the circuit diagram in Fig. 13 and the contact timing diagram in Fig. 14.

Through Positions
A so called Through position, is a position the tapchanger has to pass without changing the ratio of the transformer. These positions are passed automatically. The continuation contact (15) bridges the maintaining contacts (6:3-4 and 6:1-2) via auxiliary contacts on raise contactor (3) at through positions. In this way the contactor (3) raise, or (4) lower, is kept energized and the motor will automatically make another operation.

Local Control
Control selector switch (1) in position LOCAL. Raise impulse is given by control switch (2). Contactor (3) is thereby energized and will remain so by starting contact (5:1-2) and its own holding contact. The motor (7) starts running and soon the maintaining contact (6:3-4) closes and takes over control of the motor contactor (3). The brake is released and the starting contact (5:1-2) opens. The springs are set and will be released when fully charged, and operate the tap-changer. Maintaining contact (6:3-4) opens and the contactor disconnects the motor. The brake is applied, the starting contact (5:1-2) closes and the tap change operation is completed. The lowering operation is carried out in a similar manner.

Step-by-Step-Operation
Step-by-step relay (21) connected so that only one tap change operation is obtained each time the raise/lower switch is operated.

Protection against Running-Through


A relay (43) stopping the motor-drive mechanism in case of a a failure of the step-by-step control circuit which would cause a running-through of the motor-drive mechanism. The relay energizes the trip coil in the protective motor switch (19).

Remote Control
Control selector switch (1) in position REMOTE. The signal for the operation is then received from the control circuits for raise and lower impulses connected to terminals as shown in Fig. 13. Local operation is not possible when switch (1) is in position REMOTE, and remote operation is not possible in position LOCAL.

Contact Timing
The contact timing diagram, Fig. 14, shows the contact sequences for one change of tap position for raise and lower directions. 14

Mechanical Life
The mechanical life of the tap-changer is based on an endurance test. The test showed that the mechanical wear was negligible, and that the tap-changer was still mechanically sound after one million operations.

Contact Life
The predicted contact life of the fixed and moving contacts of the selector switch, is shown as a function of the rated through-current in Fig. 18. The values are calculated from the results of the service duty tests. For step voltages equal to or below 40 V at 50 Hz and equal to or below 50 V at 60 Hz the predicted contact life is always 500 000 operations.

Short-circuit Current Strength


The short-circuit current strength is verified with three applications of 2 seconds duration, without moving the contacts between the three applications. Each application has an initial value of 2.5 times the rms value.

Maximum Rated Through-Current


The UZ models are designed for maximum rated through-currents of 150 A, 300 A or 600 A.

Occasional Overloading
If the rated through-current of the tap-changer is not less than the highest value of tapping current of the tapped winding of the transformer, the tap-changer will not restrict the occasional overloading of the transformer, according to IEC 354 (1991), ANSI/IEEE C57.92 and CAN/CSA-C88-M90. To meet these requirements, the UZ models have been designed so that the contact temperature rise over the surrounding oil, never exceeds 20 K at a current of 1.2 times the maximum rated through-current of the tapchanger. The contact life stated on the rating plate, and given in this guide, is given considering that overload currents of maximum 1.5 times the rated through-current occur during a maximum of 3% of the tap-changer operations. Overloading in excess of the above results in increased contact wear and shorter contact life.

(Normal heater shall operate.) The temperature inside the cabinet must not exceed +75 oC. 3) Extra 250 W heater should be used.

Tie-in Resistors
If the service voltage and the winding capacitances are such that the recovery voltage of the change-over selector exceeds 40 kV, it must be limited to this value or lower, by means of a tie-in resistor. The tie-in resistors can be placed in the tap-changer tank for UZE and UZF models BIL 200, 250 and 380 kV. For UZE and UZF models BIL 550 and 650 kV the tie-in resistors are placed in the transformer tank. There is usually a need for tie-in resistors for UZ models, BIL 550 and 650 kV, when delta-connected and placed in the line ends of the windings. Design information on tie-in resistors is provided in a separate document, On-Load Tap-Changer Tie-in Resistors, 5492 0030E-28.

Design, Installation and Maintenance


On-Load Tap-Changer with Motor-Drive Mechanism
Design differences between the UZE and UZF On-Load Tap-Changers
The basic design difference between the UZE model and the UZF model is the inclining of the active part within the UZF tank to allow easier access to the terminals. Access to the terminals is via a connection cover on the top of the tank. Both UZE and UZF are completely filled with oil and have no gas/air cushion.

Oil Filling
For the correct oil filling procedure, consult the appropriate Installation and Commissioning Guide. Maintenance is easy to carry out since the design provides for quick and easy access and inspection. The front-cover is just removed after the oil has been drained, providing access to the entire selector switch mechanism. An annual inspection should be carried out to read the counting device. These readings are used to determine when overhaul is due. Overhaul shall normally be carried out every seven years, and consists of checking the dielectric strength of the oil, filtering the oil, and checking contact wear according to the Maintenance Guide. The motor-drive mechanism should also be checked and lubricated, and the pressure relay checked. The Maintenance Guide should be consulted if you need further information.

Installation
For installation instructions, consult the appropriate Installation and Commissioning Guide.

Maintenance
The UZ range of on-load tap-changers have been developed over many years to provide a maximum of reliability. The simple and rugged design gives a service life that equals the service life of the transformer. A minimum of maintenance is required for absolutely trouble-free operation. The only parts that require maintenance during the service life are the contacts that may need to be replaced, and the motor-drive mechanism.

Connection for test equipment

Fig. 27.
General Description Protection for the on-load tap-changer is provided by a pressure relay which is mounted on the tap-changer tank. In the event of an over-pressure in the tank, the relay will trip the transformers main circuit breakers. After a pressure relay trip, the tap-changer must be opened and carefully investigated according to the Repair Guide. Faults, if any are located, should be repaired before the tap-changer is energized. Design The pressure relay is mounted on a three-way valve. On the other two outlets of the valve there is a connection flange on one side, and a connection for test equipment on the other, see Fig. 27. The pressure relay housing is made of copper-free aluminium alloy and is externally coated with an enamel. A stainless steel model can be provided on request.

fm_00213

The pressure relay has been pre-set by the manufacturer. The pressure relay is sealed to avoid unauthorized entrance. The electrical connection shall be made to the terminal block inside the pressure relay housing. These measures are done to ensure a safe function. The pressure relay is designed for one or two switching elements. Operation When the pressure acting on the face of the piston exceeds the spring load of the piston, the piston will move and activate the switching element. The operation time is less than 10 ms. The operation time is the time it takes from the pressure in the tapchanger tank exceeds the function pressure, until the pressure relay gives a stable signal for operation of the transformer main circuit breakers.

The function pressure (trip pressure) is 50 kPa (7 Psi) if the oil level is less than 4 metres above the level of the pressure relay. Pressure relay with higher function pressure can be delivered on request. Testing At commissioning of the transformer and for testing the pressure relay, the instructions in the Installation and Commissioning Guide should be consulted.

Design
The bushing is built up around a centre tube on which the condenser body is wound. The upper insulator, lower insulator and mounting flange are held between the end plates by the centre tube. Sealing is accomplished by oil-resistant rubber gaskets in grooves. The annular space between the condenser body and the porcelain is filled with transformer oil. A gas-filled expansion space is left at the top. For GOB bushings without oil level gauge the oil level can be checked by means of a dipstick in the oil filling hole. The lower end is shielded by an epoxy resin insulated aluminium shield. The inner terminal is attached to the centre tube by means of a through-going resilient pin which becomes locked when the outer terminal is screwed on. The design with this special resilient pin has been patented by ABB, and the pin ensures effective electrical contact between the inner and outer terminals. The inner terminal can be chosen for connection to leads either by brazing or crimping. The outer terminal is available in aluminium or copper alloy and can be supplemented by terminal plates of corresponding material. The upper insulator is made in one piece of high quality electrical porcelain. The mounting flange is manufactured of corrosion-resistant aluminium alloy. The mounting flange, the top housing and the top washer are protected by painting with a two-component primer and a grey-blue finishing coat of paint. The standard colour is Munsell 5.5B 55/1.25, environmental class C3. The bushings are delivered oil-filled and ready for use. If the bushing is mounted with an inclination of more than 45 from the vertical, special measures may have to be taken to ensure sufficient filling of oil in the bushing. Further information can be obtained on request.

According to IEC 815 the creepage factor C.F. is <3.2 and the profile factor P.F. is >1.1. For special customer demands regarding creepage distance, other shed forms may be used.

Shed form
The shed form for all GOB bushings is of the anti-fog type with alternating long and short sheds. For each pair of sheds the ratio between nominal creepage distance and the axial length is 3.43 and the ratio between protected and nominal creepage distance is 0.40.

Test tap
The outer conducting layer of the condenser body is connected to an insulated test tap on the flange. During operation the test tap cover must be screwed on, in order to earth the outer layer to the flange. The max. test voltage of the tap is 2 kV, 50 Hz for 1 minute. Max. service voltage is 600 V.
goh_0010

Fig. 3. Test tap

Testing
During the manufacture and on its completion the bushing is subjected to a number of routine tests. A tightness test is carried out on the assembled bushing after the final drying and impregnation. The test is made with an oil overpressure of 180 kPa (1.8 bar) for 12 hours at ambient temperature. No sign of leakage is allowed. Each bushing is subjected to a final electrical routine test. The test is made at room temperature with the bushing submerged in oil. Capacitance and tan d are measured in steps up to the power frequency withstand voltage, which is maintained for one minute. Capacitance and tan d are also measured at decreasing voltage at the same voltage levels as before the one minute test. Measurements for detection of internal partial discharge (PD measurements) are also made. These measurements are carried out at the same time as the power frequency withstand test. PD measurements are made in steps up to the full test voltage and down. It is always demonstrated that the PD value is max. 5 pC at test voltage equal to the rated system voltage. Type tests have been carried out according to IEC 137 and IEEE. Type test reports are available on request.

Test tap adapter


For testing, a special test adapter is required for permanent connection of the test tap to the measuring circuits.

Solid rod conductor


The rod is produced from electrolytic copper and is divided into two parts. For the 800 A conductor the two parts are held together by a centre bolt with a resilient locking pin. For the 1250 A conductor the two parts are connected by counter-sunk screws. The lower part of the solid rod is designed to enable connection by brazing. The solid rod conductor can be divided either: Alt. 1: 20 mm below the bushing flange, or Alt. 2: 20 mm below the upper end of the bottom porcelain. The solid rod conductor must be provided with an outer terminal.

Conductor loading
The rated currents listed in this catalogue are the standardised values according to IEC 137 (1995) which, with the largest possible conductor, fulfil the temperature rise test. The GOB bushings fulfil the temperature rise test requirements according to IEC 137 (1995) and IEEE C57.19.00-1991:

Overloading of bushings
If the conductor for the bushing is selected with 120 % of the rated current of the transformer, the bushing is considered to be able to withstand the overload conditions stated in IEC 354 without further clarifications or tests, according to IEC 137.

Short-time current
The rated thermal short-time current (Ith) is calculated according to IEC 137 (1995). For draw-lead of stranded copper values are given for 100mm2. For other areas the short-time current is directly proportional to the area.

Transformer Cooling Fans

Ziehl-Abegg Transformer Cooling Fans with in the impeller hub integrated external rotor motor are constructed in a way to form an integral unit. Motor Protection IP54 in conformity with DIN VDE 0470 part 1 (EN 60 529) categorie 2 Balancing Quality G 6.3 acc. to ISO 1940 part 1 Installation position The fans are suitable for all installation positions. Condensation drain holes The lower of the condensation drain holes K must be open depending on whether mounting position Vo (rotor above) is used. With mounting position H, the condensate can escape via the gap between stator and rotor. If a fan is stationary for long periods in a humid atmosphere, it should be switched ON for minimum of two hours every month to remove any moisture that may have condensed within the motor.

Noise level data


The suction side A-weighted sound power levels L WA are indicated throughout in the catalog. Simple relations can be used to derive the pressure side or the overall sound power level in addition from the values indicated. The sound measurements are based on the enveloping measurement surface procedure as described in DIN 45 635 and/or ISO 3744, Part 1 (Precision Class 2). In addition to this, the sound pressure level Lp of the individual third octave bands are measured at 8 points on the surface of the enveloping measurement (Fig. Ia - Fig. Ib). First the sound power levels of the third octave bands, and then the suction-side sound power level L W is calculated from the measured sound pressure levels of the third octave bands. The fans are installed to the acoustic chamber in a free inlet / free outlet situation. The measurements take place without any additional accessories such as guard grilles. The measurement devices that are used comply with DIN 60 651 Class 1. The A-weighting generally takes the frequency dependent sensitivity of the human ear into account by applying different weighting factors to the individual sound power third octave bands. The A-weighted sound power level is the common property for evaluating the noise behavior of technical devices. Calculating the pressure-side sound power level and the overall sound power level The pressure side sound power level is approximatly the same as the suction side level for axial fans. Thus the overall sound power level (superposition of suction and pressure side, see DIN 45 635 Part 1 Appendix F) is obtained by adding 3dB to the suction side sound power level.

Motor protection
The motors are equipped with thermal contacts. This provides reliable protection for motors 1. that are speed-controlled, 2. that are intermittently or continously exposed to increased ambient temperatures, 3. that have a high switching rate, 4. that have become jammed or 5. whose cooling has been changed Motor protection commonly used with a bimetal tripping devices offers only over current protection. The measurement of the temperature in a motor using a bimetall device current sensor is not adequate or accurate. Thermal contacts are temperature sensing, switching elements built directly into the windings of our external rotor motors. They interrupt an electrical contact as soon as the maximum admissible sustained temperature has been reached.

Terminal box

The terminal box K07 is made of die cast aluminium and is fitted onto the stator flange. Cable entry for connecting line: diameter 7 - 14 mm. PG16 cable gland possible.

Thermal contacts have to be integrated into the control circuit in a way as to avoid any automatic switching on in emergencies after cooling down. Common protection of several motors is possible via a protection device.In order to do this, the thermal contacts of the individual motors have to be connected in series. Please pay attention to the fact that all motors are disconnected at the same time in case of a temperature failure at one single motor. In practice, however, motors are grouped in order to be able to run with reduced power in the emergency operation in case the motor fails.

Noise level data


Determining the overall sound power level when several sources of sound are at work simultaneously Just as the overall sound power level was calculated as a result of the pressure and suction side sound power levels (illustrated), the overall sound power level of several individual sound sources super-imposed is determined by adding the individual sound power levels as defined by DIN 45635 Part 1 Appendix F. This relationship forms the basis for the diagrams in Figures II and III. To add several sound sources of the same level, the overall level can be taken directly from the diagram in Fig. II. The combined effect of 6 identical sound sources, for example, results in an overall sound level that is about 8 dB higher. The overall sound power level of two sound sources with different levels can be taken from the diagram in Fig. III. Two sound sources whose sound power levels differ by 4 dB, for example, result in an overall sound power level that is about 1.5 dB higher than the larger one of the two sound sources.

Reduction of sound pressure level

Determining the sound pressure level Based on rooms with an average sound absorption capability, the A-weighted sound pressure level LpA at a distance of 1 m from the axis of the fan is calculated by subtracting 7 dB from the A sound power level LWA. This assumption is applicable in most situations will sufficient accuracy. The noise behavior can, however, be sharply influenced by individual installation situations. The decline in the sound pressure level as a function of distance in a partially reflecting environment is illustrated in Figure IV.

General description
Protection for the on-load tap-changer is provided by a pressure relay which is mounted on the tap-changer oil compartment. In the event of an overpressure in the tap-changer oil compartment, the pressure relay will trip the transformer main circuit breakers.

Operation
When the pressure acting on the face of the piston exceeds the spring load of the piston, the piston will move and activate the switching element. See fig. The function time is less than 15 ms in the temperature range of -40 C to +80 C, with a pressure increase of 20-40 MPa/sec. The function time is the time from the pressure in the on-load tapchanger oil compartment exceeds the adjusted set point of the pressure relay until the pressure relay gives a stable signal for operating the main circuit breakers.

Design
The pressure relay is mounted on a three-way valve. On the other two outlets of the valve there is a connection flange on one side, and a connection for test equipment on the other, see fig. The relay is made of copper-free aluminium alloy and is externally coated with an enamel. A stainless steel model can be provided on request. Degree of protection IP66. The function pressure (set point) has been set by the manufacturer in accordance to the requirements for each application. The electrical connection shall be made to the terminal block mounted onto the pressure relay. The pressure relay is designed for one or two switching elements (micro-switches). The micro-switch is hermetically sealed and filled with nitrogen with over-pressure, and separated from the connection space with a sealed cap.
Breaking capacity Resistive Inductive load load 0.8 A 0.6 A 0.4 A 5A 2.5 A 0.2 A L < 40 ms R Withstand voltage between open contacts

Function pressure
The value of the adjusted function pressure (set point) depends on the distance (H) between the pressure relay and the oil level in the oil conservator. Further information in the Technical, Installation & Commissioning, Maintenance and Repair Guides for each type of on-load tapchanger.

Mounting details
The following parts are supplied together with the pressure relay: studs M10x40 (4x), nuts M10 (4x), washers 10x22x2 (4x) and O-ring 44.2x55.6 (1x).

Acceptance test and Energization

1. TESTING AFTER ASSEMBLY OF A TRANSFORMER ON SITE


After a transformer has been assembled on site, it has to be tested as below in order to check that it has not been damaged in a way that may risk its future operation. All tests should be carried out with instruments with proven valid calibration. The results of the tests are to be recorded on a Test Record. Product Information 1ZBA 4601-217 The first sheet of this Test Record is a list of all possible tests in question. When the person in charge of the order or the assembly supervision has marked all applicable tests with a cross, this sheet forms an order-bound directive for the tests to be carried out. After the assembly is completed, a Notice of Delivery is issued (see Encl. 1). The Notice of Delivery should be signed both by the assembly supervisor in charge and by the customer's representative. The Test Record and the Notice of Delivery are to be sent to the local ABB representative for further distribution and filling. When the documentation is complete and the transformer/reactor has been completed as far as ABB is concerned, the ABB Installation and/or Service department issues a Service Certificate (see Enclosure 2).

1.1 Ratio test 1.1.1 General


A ratio test is carried out in order to check that the tap-changer has been correctly connected, that the transformer is set for the correct ratio and finally to check that no damage has occurred during shipping and assembly.

1.1.2 Equipment
A ratio measuring bridge with measuring cables As an alternative the following equipment can be used: Voltmeter and ammeter Measuring cables Auxiliary power of approx. 380 V Pocket calculator

1.1.3 Procedure
Testing is carried out in such a way that the test voltage is connected to the winding that has the highest voltage. The voltage on the other windings are to be measured at all tap positions, and the results should be recorded in the field test report, 1ZBA 4601-217. The results should be within 0.5% of the calculated values. While taking measurements when the tap-changer is at rated and both end positions, the current in the incoming conductor to each phase is checked. Make sure that the voltage variation at every setting of the tap-changers position is the same in every phase and that each step will be of correct size. A deviation of 10% of calculated the value is considered acceptable due to the relatively low measurement accuracy providing that the 3 phases are equal. Measuring current in the feeding phase conductor is performed in order to detect any possible short-circuit turns in the windings. A maximum current value is not available, but as a guideline the current must not exceed 50 mA (the common value is 1-20 mA). Notice that the side phases magnetic circuit are different from the middle phase. This often causes the current in the side phases to be 4050% greater than in the middle phase.

1.2 Winding resistance test (this test is optional)


Measure the resistance of each winding at the rated and extreme tap positions and compare the results to the original value in the test report. Do not attempt to measure resistances using a contact resistance micro-ohmmeter. A safety hazard for operating personnel occurs when the inductive charge created by the windings arcs across to the leads as they are withdrawn away from the windings.

Telephone : + 84 - 4 - 61 10 10 Fax : + 84 - 4 - 61 10 09

The resistance is dependent on the temperature of the winding, so its temperature must be known. The mean temperature of the oil is representative of the winding temperature, and can be determined by taking the average temperature of samples taken at the top and at the bottom of the tank. The formula giving the relation between the resistance and the temperature is:

K + T 2 RT 2 = RT 1 K + T1
where RT2 = Resistance of the winding at temperature T2 RT1 = Resistance of the winding at temperature T1 K = 234.5 for winding made of copper 225.5 for winding made of aluminum

1.3 Check of vector group 1.3.1 General


The purpose of this series of tests are to check the polarity and the phase relationship of the multiple windings of in a transformer. The test is carried out simultaneously with the transformer turns ratio test when using a turns ratio test set. So in order to define the connection of a three-phase transformer and to facilitate the parallel connection with other transformers, the international standards prescribe specific vector groups. Every country has its own designation for the vector groups. IEC and IEEE (in USA) have recommended a method which will result to standardized and fully defined designations.

1.3.2 Equipment without turns ratio test set


The test is carried out simultaneously with the transformer turns ratio test when using a turns ratio test set. When such a test set is not available a three-phase alternating current of suitable voltage and 2 voltmeters can be used.

1.3.3 Procedure for vector group as per IEC


Connect the bushings according to this instruction on fig. 1, and the 3-phase auxiliary power (220 or 380 V) to the HVside of the phase bushings. Measure the voltages that are stated on fig. 1. Compare the measured voltages and find the relation that agrees with a value in the right column on fig. 1. In this way we can determine which group (0-5-6-10-11) the transformer is connected to. Compare the results with the stated vector group as shown on the nameplate. If it states, e.g. vector group Dy11, and you find the vector according to group 11, i.e. voltages Bc = Bb Bc < Ab Cc < Cb then the transformer is correctly connected.

1.3.4 Procedure for vector group as per IEEE


Connect the bushings according to this instruction on fig.2 and the 3-phase auxiliary power (208 or 460 V) to the HV-side of the phase bushings. Measure the voltages that are stated on fig2. Compare the measured voltages and find the relation that agrees with a value in the right column on fig 2 In this way we can determine which group the transformer is connected to. Compare the results with the stated vector group as shown on the nameplate. If it shows e.g., vector group Y-Delta - angular displacement 30 degrees, and you find the vector according to same group description, i.e. voltages H3-X2 = H3-X3 H3-X2 < H1-H3 H2-X2 < H2-X3 H2-X2 < H1-H3 then the transformer is correctly connected.

1.4 Insulation test


To determine the state of active part of an installation, the resistance between the windings and between the windings and earth, must be measured. For this purpose a megger is used. It is essential that it is of a type which is approved for measurement on transformers and transformer core insulation. The positive pole of the DC-voltage must be connected to earth and the negative pole to the winding when testing between winding and earth. Testing time is 1 minute.

1.4.1 Transformer main windings


When conducting an insulation test on transformer windings, a 2.5 or a 5 kV megger is used. Test every winding to the earth and between every winding. Make sure the bushing porcelains are cleaned since dirt deteriorates the insulation resistance. The transformer tank must be earthed during the test. If the insulation resistance is > 1 Mohm/kV system voltage for the winding, it is acceptable. When observing lower values, this should be reported to your ABB representative.

1.4.2 Current transformers


When insulation-testing a current transformer, a 500 or 1000 megger is used. Test every connection to the earth. The acceptable value is 10 Mohm.

1.4.3 Control- circuit cabling and auxiliary power cabling


When insulation-testing control circuit cables and supply cables, a 500 or 1000 V megger is used. The acceptable value is10 Mohm.Test every connection to the earth.

1.4.4 Core to tank/core clamp


When insulation-testing a transformer core a 1000 V megger is used. The testing time is 1 minute. Warning! Testing must not be carried out with alternating current because the insulation between the individual core plates can be damaged. The transformer tank must be earthed during the test.

The cover of the terminal box (on one side at the bottom) for the earthing device is removed. The terminal box contains a terminal block with three terminals: - the terminal marked CL is connected to the core laminations. - the terminal marked CC is connected to the core clamps. 1ZVN 460100-B, Based on BA TPT Standard 1ZBA 4601-216 Page 3 of 19

ABB LTD.
Km 9, National High Way 1A, Hoang Mai, Hanoi, Vietnam

Telephone : + 84 - 4 - 61 10 10 Fax : + 84 - 4 - 61 10 09

- the terminal marked G is connected to ground (the tank). Disconnect the closing link that connects the two terminals CL-G and apply 1000 DC voltage between CL and G. The insulation value must be at least 100 Mohm. There is no general requirement on the insulation level CC-G.

1.5. Check of bushings


By means of a buzzer check the potential connection between the tank and turret(s), and between bushing flanges and tank.

1.6 Polarity check of current transformers 1.6.1 General


In order to make sure that the current transformer is in its correct position in relation to the bushing (conductor), a polarity check must be carried out. By checking the polarity in this rnanner we are also certain that the current transformer generates a secondary current. The ratio test and the magnetizing curve is not performed on site in conjunction with the transformer assembly.

1.6.2 Equipment
1 mA-meter and 1 flashlight battery, e.g. 4.5 volts. Connect the milliammeter as shown in figure 1. Connect the battery's negative terminal to the (earthed) neutral point. Keep an eye on the milliammeter and send an impulse to the top of the bushing by briefly touching it. At the moment of making contact the milliammeter will show a positive reading and at the moment of breaking contact a negative reading. The milliammeter should be connected to the current transformer terminals in the control cabinet in order to check also to continuity of the leads. On most transformers it may be necessary to short-circuit the other side of the transformer in order to obtain a large enough current impulse through the current transformer. If the current transformer is not fitted to the transformer then a flexible cord can be used as the primary conductor. Pass the cord through the current transformer and connect the battery. Then touch it and read the meter.

1.7 Check of thermometers and thermostats


Oil and temperature gauges must be tested with their associate control, alarm and trip circuitry. Register the test records and compare them with the set points on the circuit diagram. Open the both of the connections of the current transformer feeding the heating resistor of the winding temperature indicator, and measure the total heating resistance. Record the value in the test record and compare the result with the resistance in the test report of the transformer.

1.7.1 Equipment
Resistance bridge or ohmmeter which can read resistances below 1 ohm.

1.8 Oil tests 1.8.1 Check of the oil level


Check the oil level in: - the transformer - the tap-changer/diverter switch - the other separate compartments Check that all devices containing oil have been de-aired

1.8.2 Check of dielectric strength values 1.8.2.1 General


The transformer's performance and longevity greatly depends on the quality of the oil that is used. Therefore the oil's dielectric strength is checked before the transformer is handed over. A sample is taken from the conservator and the transformer/reactor's bottom valve and in some cases even from separate cooling batteries, etc. Since the value of the dielectric strength greatly depends on which type of electrodes that are used, it is essential to record the information in the test report. The acceptable dielectric strength value is: Standard Electrode spacing 2.5 mm 0.08 in. 0.1 in. Electrodes type hemispherical hemispherical cylindrical Strength value 60 kV1) 56 kV 30 kV2)

IEC 156 ASTM D1816 ASTM D 877

1) : For oil of type 1 and 2 2) : This method is accepted only for transformers with nominal voltage below 230 kV

1.8.2.2 Equipment
Oil test set, hose connections and a bucket. Occasionally a number of test vessels for gas analysis samples will be required.

1.8.2.3 Procedure
Make sure that the sample receptacle is clean. Rinse it thoroughly with oil and be careful not to touch the inside of the receptacle with your bare hand. Fill the receptacle and let the oil stand for approximately 30 minutes. In accordance with IEC standards, 6 measurements (5 according to ASTM D1816) are to be taken with an interval of 3 minutes between them. An average is calculated from the last 5 measurements. Repeat this procedure on the remaining samples. The results are recorded in the test report.

1.8.3 Power factor/Dissipation factor at 90C or 100C (Optional)


The power factor or dissipation factor is a measure of the dielectric losses in the oil when used in an alternating electric field and of the energy dissipated as heat. A low power factor or dissipation factor indicates low a-c dielectric losses. It can be useful as a means to see changes in quality resulting from contamination and deterioration in service or as a result of handling. The test should be made as per IEC 247 or ASTM D 924. For new oil that has never been in contact with the transformer , the power factor or dissipation factor at 90C or 100C and 50 or 60 Hz shall not exceed 0.005.

1.8.4 Interfacial tension (Optional)


This test has shown by practice to give a reliable indication of the presence of hydrophilic compounds. The test should be made as per ISO 6295 or ASTM D 971. For new oil that has never been in contact with the transformer the interfacial tension against water shall be 40 Nm/m at 25 C.

1.8.5 Sampling of oil for dissolved gas analysis by customer's request


Certain customers require that an oil test for a gas analysis is taken. There are special instructions regarding this test within the ABB group. If the analysis is conducted at another laboratory, other vessels and methods might be prescribed.

1.9 Operational test of supervisory equipment

Transformers and reactors are provided with special equipment for supervision of operation, overloading, cooling and many other purposes. After installation has been completed and before the transformer or reactor is put in service, all the accessory equipment is tested preferably in conjunction with the equipment with which it will be used in service. The supervisory devices which will cause the breaker to trip are tested with the breaker triggered so that the breaker will actually trip. Devices which send alarm signals are tested all the way to the control room. If this is not feasible then individual testing is conducted using a buzzer that is connected to the appropriate terminals in the control cabinet. Prior to energizing, the customer is obliged to perform complete commissioning tests, which include the functions of the entire system, to which the transformer is integrated.

1.10 Operational test of other equipment 1.10.1 Cooling equipment


Before the transformer is taken into service, the rotation direction of the pumps and fans of the cooling equipment are checked. Furthermore, the tripping of the motor-protection devices are checked as well as the signal that is activated for each tripped motor-protection device. The rotation direction of the pump is checked according to the following: When the pump is filled with oil and has the correct rotation direction, only a slight purring sound is heard. If the pump wheel rotates in the wrong direction, a rattling sound will occur that is several times louder. If uncertainty prevails, shift the two phases on the motor so that it will run in the opposite direction. It will then be easy to determine which rotation direction is correct. Note that if the pump housing is only partially filled with oil, a rattling sound will also occur. The rotation direction of the fans is checked visually. The thermal over-current protection relays of the fan motors are set according to the rated current that is stamped on the rating plate. The relays for the pump motors are set according to what is stated on the list of apparatus. The thermal over-current protection relays of the motors are tripped by a 2-phase connection of each motor. The signal of the tripped motor-protection device is checked by means of a buzzer to the appropriate terminals in the control cabinet. Verify that shipping plugs, if applicable, have been removed from the motors.

1.10.2 De-energized tap-changer with driving mechanism


At the end of the assembly and before being put into service, the de-energized tap-changer and the drive mechanism are checked. Operate the tap-changer to its end positions. Check by ration measuring that the drive mechanism and the tapchanger are in their proper positions. Then check the drive mechanisms locking device. Check that the contacts on the drive mechanism and its interlocking device connect and disconnect before the lock in the locking device is completely released.

1.10.3 On-load tap-changer with motor-drive mechanism


If the transformer is fitted with an on-load tap-changer, then the tap-changer and the motor-drive mechanism are tested before the transformer is put into service. The following checks should be done: All the external shafts have been lubricated The local/remote control is functioning correctly The heater in the drive mechanism is working The pressure relay operates adequately to the pressure setting The motor-protection is adjusted to the amount of amps which is stated on the motors rating plate. The drive mechanism indicates the same position as the tap-changer.

The drive mechanism has been operated through all positions manually (with the hand crank) and electrically in ascending and descending positions. The mechanical stops at extreme positions are working properly The interlocking switch for the mounted hand crank is working properly For the details on how to perform the above tests, refer to the appropriate tap-changer product information in the instruction manual.

1.11 Final bleeding


After all the tests have been carried out, the transformer and every separate compartment, including radiator banks, etc., is bled through the appropriate bleeding valves.

2. ENERGIZATION
Prior to the energization, the transformer should be visually inspected and the following items checked:

2.1 Preparation for energization


Prior to energizing verify the following: a) b) c) d) e) f) g) h) i) j) k) l) m) n) o) p) The oil level in the oil conservator The drying agent and the oil level in the dehydrating breather Check that all valves are set at the right position Check that the transformer, the control cabinet and all accessories are cleaned and touch up-painted if needed Check that the heating element in the control cabinet is connected and in operation Check that the gas-operated relay is de-aired Check possible leakage. If the transformer has been stored more than two months after the assembly, all sealing joints must be retightened Check that connections to lines, bus-bars and earth are effectively made Check that the distances between phases and phase to earth are sufficient Check that the covers are installed on the test taps and/or potential taps (if no potential device is connected) of the bushings to assure proper grounding of the taps. All temporary protective grounds have been removed from conductors. All protective and alarm circuits are operational and placed into service before the transformer is energized. Get confirmation that all installation procedures have been completed successfully. Get confirmation that there is no current transformer secondary open circuits. Set the cooling controls for automatic operation. The control selector-switch for the on-load tap changer in the control cabinet is set on REMOTE position.

The transformer is ready for service upon the successful conclusion of the tests and completion of the set time.

2.2 Energization
If possible the transformer should be energized in such a way that the voltage is increased step by step up to the rated voltage. This may be done by connecting the transformer to a generator by which the voltage is slowly increased. The higher the rated voltage, the more important to energize the transformer as described. If it is not possible to use a generator, the transformer may be connected directly to a live transmission line at no load. After energizing, the transformer has to be kept under careful observation for the first 12 hours. Check and record the oil temperature, the winding temperature, its instrumentation, the tank pressure and ambient temperature. Watch particularly for any sudden changes. When the transformer successively is loaded, observe carefully the transformer for a few hours, especially the temperature gauges and the gas relay. The observation should continue on a daily schedule for seven days and then weekly for the first month of operation.

An oil sample should be taken after the first and twelfth month of operation for Gas-ln-Oil Analysis. The results of these two analysis should be sent to the ABB representative as soon as they are known. This analysis should then be repeated annually. When the transformer has been in service at normal working temperatures for some weeks, all sealing joints have to be retightened.

2.3 Shut down and reenergisation of transformers with Inertaire or COPS oil Preservation System. 2.3.1 Transformers equipped with Inertaire or Sealedair Oil Preservation System.
When you deenergize the transformer and plan to have it out of service for any reason , no special startup/shut-down provisions are needed unless the transformer is provided with oil pumps. For FOA transformers follow this procedure: Deenergize the transformer. Run one half of the pumps until the unit reaches temperature equilibrium with the ambient. Do not run any of the cooling fans during this cool-down cycle. This procedure moves the oil past the interface with the gas blanket to speed up the release of nitrogen from the oil. Running just one half of the pumps will reduce the static charge build up and not running the fans prevents too rapid cooling.

Starting up after Shut Down Run one half of the pumps for 15 minutes to one hour and then deenergize these pumps and run the other half of the pumps for 15 minutes to one hour. This will dislodge any pockets of nitrogen in the oil and move the gas past the oil to gas blanket interface. Do not run both sets of pumps at one time because this may cause static charge buildup. Within twelve hours after running the second set of pumps, energize the transformer and set the cooling controls for automatic operation. This will allow the cooling to be initiated as required by the increasing winding temperature.

2.3.2 Transformers with COPS Oil Preservation System


Transformers equipped with COPS oil preservation systems do not require the special shut down and start up procedures because there is no gas blanket on the transformer.
