Note 01 02
Please note following:Air cell is made of nylon fabric coated oil resistant nitrile rubber. N2 pressure in air cell should not be filled up more than 0.035 kg/cm2 PRV relay is set at the pressure of 0.56 kg/cm2, so that during the filling/draining of oil, the pressure of N2 gas in main tank of transformer should not be exceed the 0.17 0.02 kg/cm2 and maximum 0.2 kg/cm2. Do not allow WTI/OTI temperature to exceed 65 C during dry out of transformer and filter machine temperature beyond 70C.

Preparation of site
The power transformer specially 400 KV class and above is very important & sensitive equipments. The minor laps may damage transformer and it may make all effort made by you to zero. Keep patience, be dedicated, be confident, dont take it granted, dont tense, but dont be careless, prepare yourself, and prepare & plan your staff for round the clock working in shifting duties for at least for 30 days otherwise you will feel tire and you will not get your goal First of all, made available all above material at site. Clean perfectly oil storage tank from inside, drain pipe and valve with transformer oil. Clean magnetic filter and paper filter of filter machine with transformer oil. Clean and fill up the oil in vacuum pumps as recommended by manufacturer

Draining oil
Before draining of oil, transport required nos of nitrogen gas cylinders from supplying agency made available at site to avoid any delay on account of transportation, traffic jam/no entry, non availability of N2 gas, since this will interrupt process of N2 gas filling. Check the dew point of Nitrogen gas; it should be of order of or below -50 C.

Connect the transparent PVC pipe at top and bottom valves of transformer with help of reducing flange and adjustable fasting clips for watching the oil level and open the both valves. Connect the inlet oil hose pipe of filter machine to bottom valve of transformer through flange and outlet hose pipe to oil storage tank. Connect one end of N 2 gas pipe at the top of EHV bushings air vent plug of transformer with help of reducing pipe and another end through regulator to gas cylinder. Close the butter fly and gate valves of cooling banks and both side of buchholz relay on conservator pipe. Put the suitable gasketted blanking plates/ dummy plates at cooler banks pipe,s valves and at valve provided between main tank and buchholz relay in conservator pipe, so that minor oil leakage can be stopped and safety of buchholz relay can be done during creation of vacuum otherwise it will be damaged. Start the oil filter machine Start draining the oil by opening outlet & inlet of oil filter machine and simultaneously purging N2 gas through air vent plug of EHV bushing till oil come to below the level of N2 purging top valve of transformer and close the air vent plug of EHV bushing and inlet valve of oil filter machine. Connect equalising pipe between main tank and OLTC tank to avoid excessive vacuum/pressure on wall of OLTC tank. It may be damaged due to excessive pressure difference between OLTC tank & main tank. Now remove N 2 gas pipe from air release plug of EHV bushing and close air release plug. Connect one end of gas pipe to top side valve of transformer with help of reducing flange and another end through regulator to gas cylinder. The valve of transformer and regulator of gas cylinder should be kept closed. Connect Compound Gauge (with centre pointer and pressure range -1 to + 1 kg/ cm2) at top valve of transformer for watching vacuum & pressure of tank during draining of oil. Start draining the oil by opening outlet & inlet of oil filter machine and simultaneously purging N2 gas through top side valve of transformer. The care should be taken that oil should be drained at the speed as N2 gas entering the tank and N2 pressure of tank should not be raised above 0.10 Kg/cm2. After drainage of oil from transformer tank, open bottom drain plug for drainage of oil from bottom tank with suitable pipe connector and fill up the oil in drums. After draining the oil from bottom tank of transformer, close the drain plug and fill up the N2 gas up to 0.17 0.02 kg/cm2 in transformer tank and close the nitrogen filling valve. Watch N2 pressure for 24 hrs for leakage and attend the same. Inspection Please see the weather condition before opening inspection cover of transformer. It is should be preferred that weather should be clear and sun heat is available. Prepared the oil of storage tank by filter machine making BDV 70 kV or above with temperature above 50C. Check that the oxygen content inside the transformer tank and it should be minimum 20%, if a person is about to enter into the tank.

Send two trained person inside the tank with help of ropes. Inspect the inside all joint and winding for any looseness, excessive heating points, and any other abnormality. Clean bottom and side wall of transformer with help of good quality dry cotton (white colour). Connect 1.5 meter length GI pipe of inches diameter to outlet hose pipe of filter machine and wash out the windings and inside of transformer with hot oil from storage tank with help of pipe and filter machine. Drain & collect the oil accommodated at bottom of transformer due to washing/flashing of winding with help of suitable pipe through drain plug in oil drums. Close the drain valve. Open inspection cover one by one and replace gasket of inspection cover and leakage points. Close the inspection and tight the nut bolts and studs with uniform torque.
Evacuation
Keep Isolate the main tank of transformer from cooler banks and conservator by shutting off gate valve /butter fly valve The transformer tank (excluding cooler banks and conservator) shall be evacuated to pressure of 1 torr. Connect vacuum pump hose pipe to tank through vacuum valve and create the vacuum up 760 mm and attend the leakage. After ascertaining that there is no leakage in transformer from gasket/valve etc, pull out the vacuum and keep the transformer under near absolute vacuum (1torr or less) for 48 or more running the vacuum pump continuously. Afterward hold the vacuum of 760 mm for 24 hours and attend leakage if any.

29C) the repeat cycle again. Drain & collect the oil accommodated at bottom of transformer during vacuuming of tank & winding with help of suitable pipe through drain plug in oil drums. Close the drain valve. Another cycle, vacuum the transformer tank for 24 hrs by running vacuum pump continuously and holds it for 24 hrs then break the vacuum by nitrogen gas. Fill up nitrogen gas to 0.17 0.02 kg/cm2. Hold this nitrogen pressure for 24 hrs. The timing of creating and holding vacuum and N2 pressure are depend upon the dew point measured at outlet. The cycling to be continued till dew point of -30 C or below is achieved. It will be better to achieve the dew point of N2 gas below -35C. After achieving the dew point of N2 gas -35C or below, stop releasing the N2 gas from tank and create the vacuum 760 mm and prepare oil and fill the oil under vacuum. Keep the body of transformer warm by heaters & by covering body tripal.

conservator where the MOG is provided. Provide the pressure gauge having scale from 0 to 0.1 kg/cm2 at top valve of conservator. See the condition of air cell; inflate the air cell by filling N2 gas up to pressure of 0.035 Kg/cm2 through valve provided at top middle of conservator and breather pipe. Close the top valve of conservator and check the pressure leakage and maintain pressure. Provide the inspection cover with gasket and tighten the same. Close vent plugs. Watch for 06 hrs for leakage. There should not be any leakage of gas.

Precautions
Oil filling in the conservator and also draining, whenever, required must be done very slowly. During oil filling pressure in air cell should not exceed 0.1 kg/cm2 (1.5psi) at any condition. Once all the air has been driven out during oil filling in the conservator, do not remove air release plugs provided at top of conservator. Otherwise air will be sucked inside the conservator. If a pressure or vacuum is ever applied to main tank, the conservator must be disconnected by a blanking plate fitted to shut off valve. Welding work should not be done on the conservator to avoid damage of air cell. When assembling the rubber cord in groove, the cord length shall be continuous. The gasket is given a small surplus length to compensate for shrinkage.
