Therefore, the use of this equipment poses electrical, mechanical and thermal risks. In order to ensure an acceptable level of protection for people and property, and in compliance with applicable environmental recommendations, Ormazabal designs and manufactures its products according to the principle of integrated safety, based on the following criteria: ·...
General instructions Index transforma.earth INDEX Description and general features... 4 Design, manufacture, and testing ....4 1.1.1 Standard or routine testing .
DESCRIPTION AND GENERAL FEATURES 1.1 Design, manufacture, and testing The earthing transformers manufactured by Ormazabal have been designed and manufactured to meet mandatory standards and testing regulations according to Medium Voltage (MV) Electrotechnical Regulations in force at the time of its manufacture, as well as specific customer specifications.
General instructions Transport and handling transforma.earth TRANSPORT AND HANDLING To facilitate its transport, each earthing transformer has 2.2 Crane transport bracing elements on the four upper corners of the tank for its For transporting the earthing transformer by crane, take into transport, to avoid the refrigeration elements from being consideration that the tank allows total suspension of the damaged.
2.4 Transport by road and/or shipping by Despite the robust design and construction of Ormazabal earthing transformer, their integrity depends critically on the safety and protection measures used during transport and unloading.
Tab. 2.1: Recommended acceleration value limits from IEEE Standard C57.93-2007 2.9 Responsibility Ormazabal reserves the right to not be responsible for damages caused from the transport and handling of its product when the conditions described in this document are not met.
Storage General instructions transforma.earth STORAGE If storing the earthing transformer (for example, if it will not be put into service immediately), the following recommendations should be followed: ► Store the earthing transformer in a clean and dry place. ► If the earthing transformer is equipped with plug-in terminals, make sure that the conical protector provided with the earthing transformer is protected, to keep the connection terminals in good and clean...

General instructions Installation transforma.earth Connect the earthing transformer to the medium voltage (MV) circuit. Use flexible connections that do not exert force on the earthing transformer bushings, with sufficient gauge to avoid excessive heating and, at the same time, allow for the possibility of expansion due to heating, so they do not damage the earthing transformer.
► Check that the electrical voltage corresponds to the nominal voltage of the earthing transformer. In the event of an anomaly, contact Ormazabal. ► If, after placing the earthing transformer in service, an adjustment must be made, follow the safety instructions specified in Section 6.1 of these general instructions document,...
