Capacity, impedance and loss values belong to the same rating entry. Primary-voltage options identify alternative winding designs; they do not describe switching between system voltage classes in service.

S-series model designation

The model designation separates the number of phases, design series, tank arrangement, rated capacity and high-voltage class. S identifies a three-phase transformer. For the sealed distribution designs, M identifies the fully sealed tank construction.

S11, S13, S20 and S22 appear in the distribution-family descriptions. The 6–10 kV rating table gives separate no-load and load-loss values for S13-M, S20-M and S22-M. Use the complete rating row and the purchase specification when selecting a loss level; the design code alone does not define the secondary voltage, vector group or every accessory.

Core and winding
construction

Copper winding manufacture on a winding machine
Transformer winding manufacture

Core

The 6–10 kV and 20 kV designs use high-permeability, grain-oriented cold-rolled silicon-steel laminations. Fully oblique joints form the stacked core; stepped core limbs approach a circular cross-section, while the yoke and limbs use equal cross-sectional areas. The core limbs and yoke provide the magnetic path.

Windings & oil passages

Concentric high- and low-voltage windings incorporate oil passages and compression binding. The oil passages carry heat from the winding region into the surrounding insulating oil. Compression binding maintains winding position within the active assembly. These channels provide circulation paths for heat transfer.

Tap leads

High-voltage tapping leads connect the winding to the cover-mounted tap switch, keeping voltage adjustment within the specified winding design. The selected winding tap connects to the supply.

Tank, cooling & connections

Corrugated tank and cooling surfaces of the distribution family
Corrugated tank and cooling surfaces

Sealed corrugated tank

6–10 kV / 20 kV

The fully sealed designs use corrugated tank walls.

Oil volume
Flexible wall sections accommodate oil-volume changes as operating temperature changes.
Heat release
The external tank surface transfers heat to the surrounding air.
Conservator
This arrangement eliminates the separate conservator used on other tank designs.

Vacuum oil filling

6–10 kV manufacturing description
Before final sealing
Vacuum filling limits moisture and air within the insulation assembly.
After sealing
Sealed construction reduces direct exposure of the oil to ambient air.

Inspection still applies. Follow the operating instructions and installation conditions.

Performance &
engineering configuration

6–10 kV

6–10 kV distribution transformer

No-load loss

No-load loss contributes whenever the transformer is energized.

Load loss

Load loss changes with operating current.

The project loading profile determines how each loss component affects energy consumption.

A loss figure therefore needs its voltage, frequency and test conditions before it can be used in a lifecycle-cost calculation.

Losses and impedance at the selected rating

Three separate loss schedules

The 6–10 kV reference table lists 19 ratings up to 2500 kVA, with separate loss schedules for S13-M, S20-M and S22-M.

Both no-load and load losses are expressed in watts.

Short-circuit impedance by capacity

30–630 kVA
4%
800–1250 kVA
4.5%
1600–2500 kVA
5%

For 10 kV ratings above 2500 kVA, request the no-load loss, load loss and short-circuit impedance for the proposed design.

20 kV

20 kV distribution transformer

No-load loss

No-load loss contributes whenever the transformer is energized.

Load loss

Load loss changes with operating current.

The project loading profile determines how each loss component affects energy consumption.

A loss figure therefore needs its voltage, frequency and test conditions before it can be used in a lifecycle-cost calculation.

Losses and impedance at the selected rating

20 kV rating schedule

The 20 kV reference table lists 19 ratings up to 2500 kVA.

Its loss values are expressed in kilowatts, while no-load current and short-circuit impedance are percentages.

Short-circuit impedance by capacity

30–500 kVA
5.5%
630–2500 kVA
6%

For the 30–500 kVA entries, this schedule does not state a single load-loss value. The required value and test condition must be agreed in the project electrical schedule.

For 20 kV ratings above 2500 kVA, request the no-load loss, load loss and short-circuit impedance for the proposed design.

Before you specify your transformer

Common questions about site conditions, installation and the information needed for a project quotation.

What should I include in a quotation request?

Provide the electrical duty and site requirements together, so the proposed rating can be reviewed against the intended installation.

Electrical duty
Product type, capacity, voltage ratio, frequency and quantity. Include continuous load, peak demand and expected growth for capacity and loss evaluation.
Project brief
Installation environment, applicable standard and required delivery date. Attach the single-line diagram or technical specification where available.
What changes for a hot, high-altitude or coastal site?

These conditions need a project-specific design review. Confirm the selected transformer’s suitability before finalizing its rating and installation arrangement.

Temperature & altitude
State the minimum and maximum ambient temperature, site altitude and ventilation conditions for thermal and insulation review.
Exposure
Identify dust, humidity, coastal salt and chemical or corrosive contaminants. Review tank coating, external insulation, terminals and available cooling space together.
Which installation interfaces should be agreed first?

Use the installation drawing for the selected transformer configuration to coordinate the equipment with the site layout.

Position & access
Foundation, equipment clearances, delivery access and service space.
Connections & cooling
Tank and bushing arrangement, terminals, cable approach and the unobstructed air path around cooling surfaces.
Are all monitoring and protection devices included?

Confirm the accessory schedule for the selected family and tank design. The devices described on this page do not form one universal standard package; gas-relay configuration is optional.

Functions
Distinguish local indication, station alarm contacts and trip contacts.
Interfaces
Agree indicator locations, contact functions and wiring destinations with the station protection scheme and control drawing.
Which technical documents should be agreed before an order?

Agree the project document scope alongside the equipment configuration.

Design basis
The selected electrical rating and schedule, connection diagram and general-arrangement drawing should describe the same transformer configuration.
Inspection
Define the inspection requirements and the technical records to be reviewed against the order. Use the series-specific rating tables above when preparing the electrical schedule.
