Description

This paper proposes to present the testing of oil type distribution transformers in order to supply with adequate voltage for all consumers, regardless of the voltage level where they are connected. One of the main challenges of the distribution system operator remains the proper selection of the transformer, application of the modern methods of commissioning and testing them, as a necessity to provide a reliable electrical supply. With the technological advancement, has been achieved to proportionally increase the quality of transformers, contributing to the increase of the efficiency of the power system as a whole. Input data, including construction and operation principles of the transformers are used to create the testing model by discussing and analyzing the cause and consequences of the failures. Finally, based of these findings, the types of testing of transformers and their elements, create a realistic reflection of what needs to be considered when it comes to the testing of these devices. This paper will discuss the techniques and types of testing applied around the world, with special emphasis in Kosovo on testing of oil type transformers. The working methodology for the preparation of this paper is based on the practical knowledge and scientific research about worldwide experiences for the testing of oil power transformers.
