  • Page 6: Installation

    Installation Transformers equipped with an internal terminal board are normally shipped with the higher voltage connected, unless otherwise specified by the customer. Installation location A secure and effective low resistance ground is essential for protection. The transformer must be grounded perma- The transformer should be located on a concrete pad of nently by connecting a heavy ground cable to the ground sufficient strength to support the weight of the unit.
  • Page 7 If an internal inspection is required, assure that: There is no evidence of moisture. All available bolted connections are tight. There has been no shifting of any parts or any other damage. The external inspection should determine that: All scratches have been painted. The bushings are clean.

    De-energized tap-changer Insulating liquid The insulating liquid in substation transformers is either conventional transformer oil, R-Temp™ fluid or Envirotemp™ FR3™ fluid. When makeup liquid is required, use only approved fluid of the same type that is in the transformer. It is important to check the proper liquid level in the transformer at all times by periodically observing the liquid level gauge.
