    Precautions to be taken Long Storage of the Transformer is not

    recommended.

    Store Oil Drums properly

    Assembly should commence from Bottom

    Core !indings should be filled "ith Oil as soon

    as #itrogen is e$pelled.

    Choose a Dry Day "hen "eather is clear

    Care to be taken so as to not to allo" any foreign

    ob%ect falling into the Transformer

    Blanking Plates should be remo&ed "hen "e are

    ready for assembly.

  • 8/14/2019 Erection and Maintenance of Transformers

    Blanking Plates should also be stored safely after

    "ork is completed.

    The Person "orking "ith Tools used inside

    #o coins'pens'"atches etc should be used by the

    persons "orking on the Transformer

    (askets must be tightened properly ie #ot too much

    or too less

    *nsure tightness of all the connections inside and

    proper Locking

    Transformer Oil must be pumped from the Drums to

    the Storage Tank through Purifier

    Lea&e about +,mm oil at the bottom of each drum.-tmay be impure.

    Pumping in Oil must be through the Drain &al&e. Also

    Draining. Lea&e one Opening at the Top Open to

    release *ntry Air.
