Transformer Testing and Analysis Training Course

Introduction

This Transformer Testing and Analysis training course will present a comprehensive capsule of all the knowledge essential for the medium voltage and high voltage power transformers. The training course focuses mainly on the maintenance, testing and analysis of power transformers. In the oil filled transformer the insulating medium oil has to be carefully maintained, tested and analysed. Regeneration oil and filtering of the oils is now visible in transmission power transformers. The efficient maintenance strategies upon the power transformer extend the life of the transformer particularly by conditioned base maintenance in compliance with IEC Standards.

Objectives

    This training course will feature:

    • Understanding the characteristics of the transformer oil
    • Transformer cooling methods
    • Transformer routine tests
    • Maintenance of transformer
    • On line monitoring for power transformers

Training Methodology

This course will utilise a variety of proven adult training techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes presentation and discussion of latest videos and technologies on medium and high transformers. Questions are encouraged throughout, particularly at the daily wrap up sessions. This provides opportunities for participants to discuss with the Presenter specific issues and, if possible, find appropriate solutions. Specific goals of each participant will be discussed to ensure that their needs are fulfilled whenever practicable in compliance with IEC Standards.
