Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Installation and Site Testing of Power Transformer. It covers the role of power transformers in the electrical power system; the different types of power transformers, insulation and foundations used in transformers; the basic principles of transformer operation and transformer losses; the different components of a power transformer and materials; the construction methods used in transformer manufacturing; selecting a transformer location and requirements for transformer ventilation and cooling; and the different types of transformer oils and oil tests used in transformer maintenance. During this interactive course, participants will learn the transformer site tests, insulation resistance test and test procedure; the transformer turns ratio test and its importance in determining the transformer ratio and detecting transformer winding defects; the short circuit impedance test and the precautions and limitations associated with short circuit impedance testing; the sweep frequency response analysis (SFRA) in detecting transformer winding defects; detecting insulation defects in transformers using partial discharge (PD) test; the transformer maintenance, transformer life extension and transformer rewinding; and the replacement of bushings and tap changers and insulation upgrades.
