What is the Transformer of Efficiency?
Transformer Efficiency Definition
Transformer efficiency is the ratio of its output power to input power, usually between 95% and 99%.
Factors Affecting Efficiency
Efficiency depends on copper losses, iron losses, dielectric losses, and stray load losses.
Efficiency Calculation
Efficiency is calculated using OC and SC tests, which measure core and winding losses.
Maximum Efficiency Conditions
Maximum efficiency is achieved when copper losses equal core losses, typically at full load.
All-Day Efficiency
This is specific to distribution transformers and is calculated over a 24-hour period, focusing on minimizing core losses.

How to Test Insulation Resistance of Distribution Transformers
In practical work, insulation resistance of distribution transformers is generally measured twice: the insulation resistance between thehigh-voltage (HV) windingand thelow-voltage (LV) winding plus the transformer tank, and the insulation resistance between theLV windingand theHV winding plus the transformer tank.If both measurements yield acceptable values, it indicates that the insulation among the HV winding, LV winding, and transformer tank is qualified. If either measurement fails, pairwise

Design Principles for Pole-Mounted Distribution Transformers
Design Principles for Pole-Mounted Distribution Transformers(1) Location and Layout PrinciplesPole-mounted transformer platforms should be located near the load center or close to critical loads, following the principle of “small capacity, multiple locations” to facilitate equipment replacement and maintenance. For residential power supply, three-phase transformers may be installed nearby based on current demand and future growth projections.(2) Capacity Selection for Three-Phase Pole-Mounted Tr

Analysis of Common Faults and Causes in Routine Inspection of Distribution Transformers
Common Faults and Causes in Routine Inspection of Distribution TransformersAs the terminal component of power transmission and distribution systems, distribution transformers play a critical role in supplying reliable electricity to end users. However, many users have limited knowledge of power equipment, and routine maintenance is often carried out without professional support. If any of the following conditions are observed during transformer operation, immediate action should be taken: Excess
