Working Principle of 1500kVA Oil Filled Transformer
Law of Electromagnetic Induction
Based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, alternating magnetic flux is generated when the primary winding is connected to 11kV AC power supply. The closed iron core couples the magnetic flux to the secondary winding, and the voltage is converted through the turn ratio. The 1500kVA rated capacity ensures efficient power transmission under rated load conditions.
Oil-Immersed Insulation & Cooling
Transformer oil acts as an insulating medium to enhance dielectric strength between windings. Meanwhile, it transfers heat generated by the iron core and windings to the tank wall or heat sinks through natural convection, realizing ONAN natural oil circulation cooling and keeping temperature rise within standard limits.
Voltage Regulation & Protection
The high-voltage side is fitted with ±2×2.5% off-circuit tap changer to adapt to power grid voltage fluctuations. Complete protection components including gas relay and pressure relief valve ensure the safe and stable operation of the transformer.
