Results for tag: "Oil Immersed Power Transformer"

In electrical engineering, oil immersed power transformers are a type of transformer in which the core and the windings are immersed in insulating oil for cooling and additional insulation. The oil serves to dissipate heat generated by electrical currents and also helps in maintaining the structural integrity of the core-coil assembly by preventing oxidation of the metal surfaces. Typically, these transformers are used for high-voltage power transmission to step down the voltage for use in industries and homes. The design of oil immersed transformers allows them to handle high power capacities and they are known for their longevity and reliability. Advancements in technology have led to the development of various types of oil immersed transformers, including hermetically sealed models which do not require an oil conservator and can thus reduce the risk of oil contamination and enhance safety. Industry players in the oil immersed power transformer market are significant contributors to the development and distribution of this essential electrical infrastructure. Some notable companies in this sector include ABB Ltd., Siemens AG, General Electric Company, Schneider Electric, Eaton Corporation, Toshiba Corporation, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., China XD Group, and TBEA Co., Ltd. These companies are instrumental in advancing transformer technology, ensuring a steady supply of high-quality equipment for power systems worldwide. Show Less Read more
