Abstract

The paper analyzes the statistical data on the transformers of the Kromsky branch of Oreloblenergo OJSC including the average lifetime of the transformers and no-load losses measured in accordance with the requirements of Russian standard GOST 3484.1. The analysis indicates that the declared passport data differ from the measured data. There is also the analysis of technical solutions to improve the power transformer design including to development of new types of electrical steel used in transformer cores, superconducting materials for winding. The article gives an understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of using these technologies as well as the possible reduction of electrical losses. In conclusion there is the justification for creating the mobile measuring complex to assess electric energy loss in power transformers during operation without disconnecting the load. The paper describes the result achieved using such a mobile measuring complex along with the economic effect of creating the project.
