7 Things you must know before Buying Power & Distribution Transformer from any Manufacturer

Over 53% Buyers ignore the Selection of Appropriate Specifications before placing an order to a Transformer Manufacturer and loose up to Paying **₹ 6.7 Lacs (approx. 11000 US$) extra** on their Investment and Running Cost.

Voltage Ratios of Transformer
(11 KV to 33 KV)

Accurate Voltage selection on H.V. Side – 11KV, 22KV, 33KV and on L.V. Side – 400V, 415V or 433V can vary the Transformer Prices from 3% up to 17%.

Capacity of Transformers
(25 KVA to 10 MVA)

Choosing the right KVA / MVA Rating of a Transformer based on Power Consumption in KW or Current & Voltage can lead an XFMRs Price variation from 8% to 13%.

Transformer Frequency
(50Hz or 60Hz)

In most parts of the World, the Frequency of Power Supply is 50 Hz. but in Countries like the USA the Standard Frequency is 60 Hz. Most Transformer Suppliers choose Frequency on the basis of inputs received from the Customers. This alter the design of Power & Distribution Transformer and effects the cost up to 5%.

Installation / Environment

Based on the type of atmosphere the Transformer will be placed – Indoors, Outdoors, Salinity, Heat, Moisture, Fumes etc. The Mechanical Designing and Paint Coating of XFMR is taken into consideration, contributing up to 5%.

Transformer Tappings
(OLTC or Off Circuit Type)

Taps on H.V. with Off Circuit Tap Changer or On Load Tap Changer, plays a significant role in the Electrical Designing and Cost Consideration of a XFMR and can vary price up to 11% depending on Transformer Rating.

Transformer Standards

Many National and International Regulations are set to abide before buying a Transformer from any Transformer Manufacturer in India or abroad. Standards put up by Organizations like IEC, IS, BIS, IEEE, EEE, ANSI, NEMA, ASTM, UL are mandatory to follow. These standards goes into the Electrical Design consideration of XFMR and varies it up to 37%.

Transformer Fitting / Accessories & Protection Level

Several Electro-Mechanical Devices can be integrated with a Transformer for its safe functioning and appropriate monitoring. Especially for XFMRs of High Ratings, these Fittings and Protections are must for Enclosure Safety, Alarm & Trip functions for Temperature and Pressure Control. Depending on the KVA / MVA Capacity of XFMR, these contribute up to 17%.

Power & Distribution Transformer

RECONS, a Pioneer Transformer Manufacturer & Exporter offers a wide range of Oil Filled Transformers from 25 KVA to 10 MVA in 11 KV, 22 KV & 33 KV Class.

About Recons

RECONS covers a wide range of Oil Filled Distribution transformers with Off Circuit Tap Changer (up to 10000 KVA in 11 KV & 33 KV Class) conforming to the international standards of quality and safety. These transformers are designed and developed using latest technologies and can be provided with a variety of terminations so as to suit the requirements for new installation or replacement.

Optimum efficiency is ensured by delicate proportioning of core and winding losses using CRGO M3 to M5 MOH Lamination, Electrolytic Grade 99.9% pure copper, with Transposition in L.V. coil for current sharing in parallel Conductors, Electric grade press paper, boards and mineral oil. Thus better regulation is achieved resulting in longer life. Careful designing also reduces noise level to the minimum.
