transformers parts & function of each parts

Answer Posted / b.praveen patnaik

The main parts of the transformer are as under :
1. Oil Tank:
This part of the xmer contains the assembly of the core and
the winding which is immersed in insulation oil.

2. Radiator :
This part is basically used for the cooling of Xmer by the
means of natural air.

3. Conservater:
This is mainly used for the storage of extra insulation oil
which is to overcome the requirement of the tank assembly
system.

4. Air breather:
This is used for the extraction of the moisture from the
core of the transformers.

5. Temperature meter (O.T/W.T):
These are used for taking the readings of O.T.I - Oil
Temperature Indicator and W.T.I - Winding Temperature
Indicator.

6. Drain Valve:
This is used for the Exhaust of the insulation oil during
the maintainance of the Xmer.

7. Tap-changer:
This is used for the tapping of the Xmer at different
levels.

8. Pressure release Valve (P.R.V):
This is used for the tripping purpose in the Xmers for the
safety purpose.

9.Buchloz Relay:
This is used for the tripping purpose by the help air gap
inbetween the switching circuit.

10. Primary and secondary winding:
These are the two coils of the Xmer and the no. of turns
depend upon the rating of the transformer.
