Packing and Shipping
The transformer's main body is securely mounted on a heavy-duty steel skid or export-grade wooden base to prevent movement during transit. Structural braces, vibration dampers, and impact-resistant padding are installed at critical points to minimize mechanical stress. The entire unit is wrapped in multiple protective layers, including moisture-proof films, UV-resistant covers, and rust-inhibiting materials. For long-distance or sea transportation, nitrogen filling or vacuum sealing may be applied to maintain insulation dryness and oil quality.
Depending on transformer size, weight, and destination, shipment is arranged using flat-rack containers, open-top containers, or break-bulk cargo methods. All packaging materials comply with international shipping standards, including ISPM-15 requirements. Clear lifting instructions, center-of-gravity markings, and handling labels are applied to ensure safe loading and unloading. Complete shipping documentation—including packing lists, test reports, quality certificates, drawings, and operation manuals—is provided in waterproof packaging attached to the transformer.
Upon arrival at the installation site, detailed unpacking, storage, and installation guidelines are supplied. Optional on-site services include unloading supervision, accessory reassembly, oil filling, filtration, and commissioning support. This comprehensive packing and shipping process ensures the transformer arrives in optimal condition, ready for safe installation and reliable long-term operation.
Manufacturer Test
Progress test
The Progress Test for the 121kV Oil-Immersed High-Voltage Power Transformer is conducted throughout the manufacturing process to ensure strict quality control and early fault detection. Incoming inspections verify the quality of silicon steel laminations, copper conductors, insulation materials, and transformer oil. During core stacking and winding operations, checks are performed on dimensional accuracy, insulation clearances, winding tension, and mechanical stability. Active parts undergo controlled drying and vacuum treatment, with temperature and moisture levels continuously monitored to ensure optimal insulation conditions.
Intermediate electrical tests include winding resistance measurement, insulation resistance testing, and turns ratio verification at key production stages. Fabrication of tanks and cooling components is inspected for welding quality, pressure resistance, and surface coating thickness. Vacuum leak tests and internal cleanliness inspections are completed before oil filling. All results are recorded in detailed progress reports to ensure traceability and manufacturing consistency prior to final assembly and FAT.
Design Tests
All transformers will be tested after finishing the production test items as below:
♦ Leak testing with pressure for liquid-immersed transformers
♦ Test of transformer oil
♦ Measurement of voltage ratio and check of phase displacement
♦ Measurement of winding DC resistance
♦ Measurement of d. c. Insulation resistance between each winding to earth, and check of the core and frame insulation
♦ Capacitive bushing test
♦ Measurement of dissipation factor (tan δ) of the insulation system capacitances, and determination of capacitances windings-to-earth
♦ Measurement of no-load loss and current at 90%,100%,110% of rated voltage
♦ Operation test on on-load tap-changer
♦ Measurement of short-circuit impedance and load loss
♦ Lightning impulse test
♦ Induced-voltage test with partial discharge measurement
♦ Auxiliary wiring check
♦ Current transformer test
♦ Frequency response analysis test
Transformer Factory Acceptance Test
The Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) for the 121kV Oil-Immersed High-Voltage Power Transformer is performed after final assembly in accordance with IEC and IEEE standards. Electrical routine tests include winding resistance measurement, verification of turns ratio and vector group, insulation resistance evaluation, and polarity checks. Dielectric tests such as applied AC voltage and induced overvoltage withstand tests, confirm insulation strength under rated operating conditions.
Performance tests measure no-load loss, load loss, impedance voltage, and temperature rise to verify efficiency and thermal stability. Partial discharge measurements assess insulation quality, while lightning impulse tests validate the transformer’s ability to withstand transient overvoltage events. Mechanical and functional inspections cover tank pressure testing, oil leakage checks, bushing installation accuracy, tap changer operation, cooling system performance, and oil quality analysis. All protection and monitoring devices are calibrated and verified. FAT documentation is reviewed and approved prior to shipment.
Routine Test - No Load Loss Test
Voltage source (usually 230V, 400V or customized according to customer requirements to adapt to different equipment)
Power analyzer (used to measure power loss and efficiency)
Ammeter and voltmeter
Temperature and humidity meter
Please ensure that the test is carried out in a suitable environment with a relative humidity of less than 75% and avoid rainy days or extreme weather (recommended temperature range: 20-30°C).
Connect the test equipment to the high voltage side of the transformer, making sure the wiring is correct and the equipment is grounded.
Apply Test Voltage:
Usually it is 110% of the rated voltage, for example, if the rated voltage of the transformer is 33 KV, apply 36.3 KV (110%).

What is a Transformer?A transformer is an electrical device used to change the voltage of alternating current (AC). It works on the principle of electromagnetic induction, converting high-voltage current into low-voltage current or low-voltage current into high-voltage current. Transformers are widely used in power transmission, distribution systems, and various electronic devices.
-
What are the main uses of a transformer?The main use of a transformer is voltage conversion. Transformers are used in power transmission systems to help transfer electricity from power plants to consumers. In addition, transformers are also used in electronic devices such as chargers, televisions, power adapters, etc., to adjust the voltage to meet the requirements of different devices.
