When should Oil-Immersed Transformers be selected instead of Dry-Type Transformers?+
Choose Oil-Immersed Transformers when the main duties are Utility distribution networks and Distribution substations; compare Dry-Type Transformers when Indoor substations and Commercial buildings better match the site. Final selection depends on the installation environment, network topology, fire or oil-containment requirements, rating and project specification.
How should the main configuration options for Oil-Immersed Transformers be selected?+
Key choices include tap changer, bushings and terminations and protection and accessories. Select them according to the load profile, connection arrangement, installation environment, protection philosophy and utility/EPC specification; items shown as options or project engineering are not automatic standard equipment.
What installation conditions should be confirmed for Oil-Immersed Transformers projects?+
Confirm ambient temperature, altitude, humidity, dust or corrosion exposure, indoor/outdoor location, ventilation, access and maintenance clearances. For applications such as Utility distribution networks, Distribution substations and Commercial and mixed-use developments, cooling, enclosure or insulation and protection should be reviewed during engineering rather than assuming one environmental class for every project.
Which standards and utility/project requirements should be confirmed?+
Generic international market; standards and certification must be selected from the actual destination and project. Final losses, temperature rise, impedance, taps, accessories, tests and documentation must be checked against the applicable project specification; this page does not imply automatic approval by any authority.
What tests, drawings and documents should be agreed before the purchase order?+
Confirm the applicable routine tests, general arrangement drawings, electrical datasheet, accessory list and inspection/test documents before manufacturing. Type or special tests, witnessing and additional reports should be specified when the project requires them. For Oil-Immersed Transformers, also confirm site-specific environmental and installation engineering.
What information does HKXR need to prepare a technical quotation?+
Provide at least Rated capacity, Primary voltage, Secondary voltage, Phases, the selected tap changer / bushings and terminations options, installation conditions and the applicable project or utility specification. If available, attach the SLD, datasheet or tender specification so the configuration can be reviewed before quotation.
