Electrical Transformer Testing Handbook, Vol. 7

Volume 7 of our Electrical Transformer Testing handbook series provides detailed information on the maintenance, testing and diagnostic techniques that are used to keep transformers operating at peak efficiency - and more importantly extending their operational life. Articles like transformer/line loss calculations, a guide to DC resistance measurements, infrared diagnostics on padmount transformer elbows, pressure relief valve efficiency calculations, and case studies on integration of diagnostic equipment and monitoring on aging transformers with communications for SCADA maintenance are all vital to anyone working on transformers today.
