PowerIT Liquid Filled Transformers IEC standard, small and medium, rated power ≤2000kVA, HV ≤36kV
Even our standard solutions are special In almost every place where people live and work you will find at least one transformer. But as long as it keeps working and supplying power to the escalator in the department store, the hotel lift, the office computer, the oven in the local bakery, the farm machinery or the petrochemical plant nobody gives it a second thought. However, transformers are one of the most important units in every production process. Without them the core activities of nearly every business and factory would come to a standstill – with serious financial consequences. After nearly 100 years developing and manufacturing transformers we are well aware of this dependency. This is why we never compromise on the performance, security or reliability of our products. Nor on design, materials, manufacturing methods, environmental protection or recycling.
Our objective is to support you and to add value to your activities by offering a comprehensive range of top quality transformers. We also provide top class service and support. With this approach we can tailor the most appropriate technical solution to every problem. A high quality solution with better service and support, better for the environment and yet with greater availability and a lower total cost ownership than our competitors. All over the world – in underground railways, in amusement parks and every place where people work or live – you will find ABB transformers at work. ABB invites you to find the optimal solution to your application and to see with your own eyes that even our standard solutions are special.

Construction features Description ABB Distribution Transformers manufacture a wide range of oil and dry type transformers. This brochure describes three phase oil type distribution transformers up to 2000 kVA and 36kV. They are used to step down three-phase high voltage to low voltage for power distribution, mainly in urban areas and for industrial applications. Our standard transformers are designed for use in moderate climates and can be installed both outdoors and indoors. The loading capability is designed to comply with IEC 354. Distribution transformers can be hermetically sealed (the tank is completely filled with oil) or equipped with an oil conservator. Tanks are constructed with flexible corrugated walls (fins), which enables sufficient cooling of the transformer. The corrugated walls also compensate for the changes in the oil volume during operation. An advantage of the hermetically sealed transformers is that oil is never in contact with the atmosphere thus avoiding periodic oil analysis. Our transformers are adaptable for pole mounting or assembly in substations.
Standard features Hermetically sealed: Corrugated tank HV and LV DIN bushings Off-circuit tap changer Oil drain valve Oil filling plug on the cover Lifting lugs Earthing terminals Rating plate Mineral oil (inhibited or uninhibited) Overpressure valve
ABB technology – Common Technology (CT) Our transformers are manufactured to provide you with a high quality and reliable transformer. ABB has developed a Common Technology (CT) platform, which defines design standards, equipment and processes used in all our factories. Use of this Common Technology enables us to guarantee our customers a high quality and consistent product. The key production features of our small and medium distribution common technology are: oval core step lap automatic cutting and stacking of core legs windings directly wound on the core legs or mandrels with 2 HV coils in parallel (smallest units) epoxy diamond dotted paper insulation between LV layers tapered or full width layer insulation in HV windings What we achieved is: standardisation of products automation of production stable process and quality high reliability higher LV insulation level
Additionally, for transformers with a conservator: Magnetic oil level indicator Buchholz relay Oil filling plug on the conservator Dehydrating breather Other product types with different dimensions and technical specifications can be designed and manufactured on request.

Core
Windings
The magnetic circuit is of the three-column type with mitred joints. It is manufactured with firstrate, grain oriented magnetic, cold-rolled silicon steel laminations. The mounted core is clamped down in order to reduce vibrations and minimize noise levels. Further noise level and no load losses decreasing are achieved by step lap core construction.
The windings are made of two components, conductor material and the insulation material. The conductors used are a high grade electrolytic copper or aluminium. They are insulated with pure cellulose or double enamel. The HV windings are wound either with round, double enamel insulated, or rectangular, paper insulated wire. The LV windings are wound with rectangular paper insulated wire, enameled wire or foil. The windings are designed to meet the customer’s insulation level requirements and also to withstand the short circuit forces as outlined in IEC 60076-5. The neutral points of LV windings are brought up to the tank cover.
Core design is an important factor of any transformer’s efficiency. The geometric core arrangement and the materials chosen determine the losses and noise levels. Grain oriented transformer sheet steel is used in the core construction. It is cut by the most modern, fully automated core cutting machinery and assembled into limb and yoke sets. This results in high dimensional accuracy, excellent space factor, and low loss values. By using step-lap technology, the no-load currents can be reduced improving the drawbacks associated with reactive power compensation.

ABB
Off-circuit tap changer The tappings of the HV winding, are connected to the off-circuit tap changer located horizontally between the yoke and the tank cover. The handle is located on the cover and should only be operated when the transformer is de-energized. The design prevents setting the off-circuit tap changer to intermediate positions. The mechanism can also be padlocked during normal transformer operation.
Insulating liquids The mineral oil – both inhibited and uninhibited types - with its electrical and chemical characteristics is in compliance with the IEC Standards and is P.C.B. and P.C.T. free. ABB provides and promotes its own solution as well. BIOTEMP® is biodegradable, vegetable-oil-based dielectric insulating fluid used in electrical transformers. The product reduces environmental threats posed by transformer insulating oil spills. On special requests other fluids are available.

...manufactured, assembled, tested and painted in the factory Tank and cover
Painting and surface treatment
Tank walls are made of corrugated cooling surfaces. The bottom plate, side and frames are of welded construction. The welds are tested for oil tightness. All protection device flanges, bushings, tap switch drive and lifting lugs are fitted on the tank cover. The cover is bolted to the tank frame.
All metal parts are carefully sand-blasted. The initial protective coating is made up of a single coat of one pack epoxy paint. The final paint coating is made up of several coats of paint. Alternatively, hot dip galvanized transformers can be supplied for use in heavy corrosion areas. All units are painted in RAL 7033 but other colours are available on request. Detailed painting procedures for different environmental conditions are also available.
The underbase channel is welded to the base plate and the rollers are suitable for either longitudinal or transverse movements. Single pole 3-phase transformers are delivered with flat base as standard, but optionally can be equipped with underbase channel beams where bi-directional wheels are a requirement. The complete tank is tested and approved according to CENELEC HD 428.6 S1 standard. Special type lifecycle tests of more than 10 000 cycles simulating over 30 years operation were carried out with positive results.
