ABOUT THE TOPIC

 

The presentation will focus on DOE 2010 Efficiency Standard for MV Distribution Transformers and the Use of FR3 Filled Transformers for INDOOR Applications

The new DOE 2010 distribution transformer efficiency standard which goes into effect January 1, 2010 will be presented and discussed in detail. We will also discuss the NEC related issues differentiating dry type transformers, mineral oil filled transformers and FR3 filled transformers. This will include highlighting how/why the FR3 filled transformers have very significant differences and advantages which result in lower life cycle costs, lower construction costs and possibly even lower initial costs for INDOOR applications.
