This option is specified on about 60% of new medium and large power transformers. Figure 2.1.19 illustrates the basic operation by providing a sample schematic and connection chart for a transformer supplied with an LTC on the low-voltage (secondary) side. It should be recognized that there would be slight differences in this schematic based on the specific LTC being used. Figure 2.1.19 also shows a sample schematic where an auxiliary transformer is used between the main windings and the LTC to limit the current through the LTC mechanism. It is also possible for a transformer to have dual voltage ratings, as is popular in spare and mobile transformers. While there is no physical limit to the ratio between the dual ratings, even ratios (for example 24.94 12.47 kV or 138 69 kV) are easier for manufacturers to accommodate. 2.1.6 Accessory Equipment 5 3 1 2 4 6 Volts L-L DETC Positions 144900 A 141450 B 138000 C 134550 D 131100 E Leads Connected 1 – 2 2 – 3 3 – 4 4 – 5 5 – 6 2.1.6.1 Accessories There are many different accessories used to monitor and protect power transformers, some of which are considered standard features, and others of which are used based on miscellaneous requirements.

This indicator is typically a round-faced gauge on the side of the tank, with a float and float arm that moves a dial pointer as the liquid level changes. 2.1.6.1.2 Pressure-Relief Devices Pressure-relief devices are mounted on transformer tanks to relieve excess internal pressures that might build up during operating conditions. These devices are intended to avoid damage to the tank. On larger transformers, several pressure-relief devices may be required due to the large quantities of oil. 2.1.6.1.3 Liquid-Temperature Indicator Liquid-temperature indicators measure the temperature of the internal liquid at a point near the top of the liquid using a probe inserted in a well and mounted through the side of the transformer tank. 2.1.6.1.4 Winding-Temperature Indicator A winding-temperature simulation method is used to approximate the hottest spot in the winding. An approximation is needed because of the difficulties involved in directly measuring winding temperature. The method applied to power transformers involves a current transformer, which is located to incur a current proportional to the load current through the transformer. The current transformer feeds a circuit that essentially adds heat to the top liquid-temperature reading, which approximates a reading that models the winding temperature. This method relies on design or test data of the temperature differential between the liquid and the windings, called the winding gradient. 2.1.6.1.5 Sudden-Pressure Relay A sudden- (or rapid-) pressure relay is intended to indicate a quick increase in internal pressure that can occur when there is an internal fault. These relays can be mounted on the top or side of the transformer, or they can operate in liquid or gas space. 2.1.6.1.6 Desiccant (Dehydrating) Breathers Desiccant breathers use a material such as silica gel to allow air to enter and exit the tank, removing moisture as the air passes through. Most tanks are somewhat free breathing, and such a device, if properly maintained, allows a degree of control over the quality of air entering the transformer. 2.1.6.2 Liquid-Preservation Systems There are several methods to preserve the properties of the transformer liquid and associated insulation structures that it penetrates. Preservation systems attempt to isolate the transformer’s internal environment from the external environment (atmosphere) while understanding that a certain degree of interaction, or “breathing,” is required to accommodate variations in pressure that occur under operational conditions, such as expansion and contraction of liquid with temperature. Free-breathing systems, where the liquid is exposed to the atmosphere, are no longer used. The most commonly used methods are outlined as follows and illustrated in Figure 2.1.20. • Sealed-tank systems have the tank interior sealed from the atmosphere and maintain a layer of gas — a gas space or cushion — that sits above the liquid. The gas-plus-liquid volume remains constant. Negative internal pressures can exist in sealed-tank systems at lower loads or temperatures with positive pressures as load and temperatures increase. • Positive-pressure systems involve the use of inert gases to maintain a positive pressure in the gas space. An inert gas, typically from a bottle of compressed nitrogen, is incrementally injected into the gas space when the internal pressure falls out of range. • Conservator (expansion tank) systems are used both with and without air bags, also called bladders or diaphragms, and involve the use of a separate auxiliary tank.

the transformer design, which may be available from the manufacturer but is not typically available to the application engineer. Actual values for inrush current depend on where in the source-voltage wave the switching operations occur, the moment of opening affecting the residual flux magnitude, and the moment of closing affecting the new flux. FIGURE 2.1.20 General arrangements of liquid preservation systems. contracts within the auxiliary tank. The auxiliary tank is allowed to “breathe,” usually through a dehydrating breather. The use of an air bag in the auxiliary tank can provide further separation from the atmosphere. 2.1.6.2.1. “Buchholz” Relay On power transformers using a conservator liquid-preservation system, a “Buchholz” relay can be installed in the piping between the main transformer tank and the conservator. The purpose of the Buchholz relay is to detect faults that may occur in the transformer. One mode of operation is based on the generation of gases in the transformer during certain minor internal faults. Gases accumulate in the relay, displacing the liquid in the relay, until a specified volume is collected, at which time a float actuates a contact or switch. Another mode of operation involves sudden increases in pressure in the main transformer tank, a sign of a major fault in the transformer. Such an increase in pressure forces the liquid to surge through the piping between the main tank and the conservator, through the “Buchholz” relay, which actuates another contact or switch. 2.1.6.2.2. Gas-Accumulator Relay Another gas-detection device uses a system of piping from the top of the transformer to a gas-accumulator relay. Gases generated in the transformer are routed to the gas-accumulator relay, where they accumulate until a specified volume is collected, actuating a contact or switch. 2.1.7 Inrush Current When a transformer is taken off-line, a certain amount of residual flux remains in the core due to the properties of the magnetic core material. The residual flux can be as much as 50 to 90% of the maximum operating flux, depending the type of core steel. When voltage is reapplied to the transformer, the flux introduced by this source voltage builds upon that already existing in the core. In order to maintain this level of flux in the core, which can be well into the saturation range of the core steel, the transformer can draw current well in excess of the transformer’s rated full-load current. Depending on the transformer design, the magnitude of this current inrush can be anywhere from 3.5 to 40 times the rated full-load current. The waveform of the inrush current is similar to a sine wave, but largely skewed to the positive or negative direction. This inrush current experiences a decay, partially due to losses that provide a dampening effect. However, the current can remain well above rated current for many cycles. This inrush current can have an effect on the operation of relays and fuses located in the system near the transformer. Decent approximations of the inrush current require detailed information regarding 2.1.8 Transformers Connected Directly to Generators Power transformers connected directly to generators can experience excitation and short-circuit conditions beyond the requirements defined by ANSI/IEEE standards. Special design considerations may be necessary to ensure that a power transformer is capable of withstanding the abnormal thermal and mechanical aspects that such conditions can create. Typical generating plants are normally designed such that two independent sources are required to supply the auxiliary load of each generator. Figure 2.1.21 shows a typical one-line diagram of a generating station. The power transformers involved can be divided into three basic subgroups based on their specific application: 1. Unit transformers (UT) that are connected directly to the system 2. Station service transformers (SST) that connect the system directly to the generator auxiliary load 3. Unit auxiliary transformers (UAT) that connect the generator directly to the generator auxiliary load In such a station, the UAT will typically be subjected to the most severe operational stresses. Abnormal conditions have been found to result from several occurrences in the operation of the station. Instances of faults occurring at point F in Figure 2.1.21 — between the UAT and the breaker connecting it to the auxiliary load — are fed by two sources, both through the UT from the system and from the generator itself. Once the fault is detected, it initiates a trip to disconnect the UT from the system and to remove the generator excitation. This loss of load on the generator can result in a higher voltage on the generator, resulting in an increased current contribution to the fault from the generator. This will continue to feed the fault for a time period dependent upon the generator’s fault-current decrement characteristics. Alternatively, high generator-bus voltages can result from events such as generator-load rejection, resulting in overexcitation of a UAT connected to the generator bus. If a fault were to occur between the UAT and the breaker connecting it to the auxiliary load during this period of overexcitation, it could exceed the thermal and mechanical capabilities of the UAT. Additionally, nonsynchronous paralleling of the UAT and the SST, both connected to the generator auxiliary load, can create high circulating currents that can exceed the mechanical capability of these transformers. Considerations can be made in the design of UAT transformers to account for these possible abnormal operating conditions. Such design considerations include lowering the core flux density at rated voltage to allow for operation at higher V/Hz without saturation of the core, as well as increasing the design UT System Breaker Generator Bus G Generator Auxiliaries Load System Breaker Breakers Auxiliary Bus FIGURE 2.1.21 Typical simplified one-line diagram for the supply of a generating station’s auxiliary power.
