EE1112 : 132/33KV and 33/132KV Transformer

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.  

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of 132/33KV and 33/132KV Transformer. It covers the purpose and basic components of transformers including transformer types, construction and rating and specification; the safety considerations in transformer handling, transformer standards and codes; the pre-installation planning, transport and handling and installation procedures; the initial testing, verification of transformer specifications and troubleshooting during installation; the transformer overcurrent relays, time-current characteristics, coordination with downstream protection and settings and adjustments; and the differential protection, gas and Buchholz relay protection, temperature monitoring and protection. 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the protection against lightning and surges and protection coordination; the operating characteristics of 132/33kv transformers, load tap changer (LTC) operation, voltage control and regulation and transformer load conditions; the online monitoring techniques, vibration monitoring in transformers and preventive maintenance; the transformer oil management, oil filtration and replacement, monitoring of oil quality and handling and disposal of contaminated oil; the end-of-life transformer considerations and advancements in transformer technology; and the innovative maintenance practices.
