What is the maximum transformer rating for distribution transformer?
100MVA
What is the difference between an isolation transformer and distribution transformer?
in isolation transformer earthing is not provide on secondary side but in ordinary transformer neutral of secondary side is earthedAnswerAn isolation transformer is a 1:1 ratio transformer; its function is to electrically isolate the secondary side from the primary side without changing the voltage. An example of an isolation transformer is the one used in a shaver socket.A distribution transformer is a step-down transformer, used within the electricity network's distribution system. An example of distribution transformer is a pole-mounted transformer, supplying low voltage to residences.(Of course, all mutual transformers provide electrical isolation between primary and secondary.)
What is the function of transformer 33kv?
A '33-kV transformer' is a three-phase primary-distribution transformer, used in the UK's electricity system to step down the 33-kV primary-distribution voltage to the 11-kV secondary-distribution voltage -the lowest voltage used in the high-voltage distribution system. These transformers are categorised as 'power transformers', and are located in what are termed 'primary substations'.
What is the difference between primary electrical distribution and secondary distribution?
Primary electrical distribution carries medium voltage power to distribution transformers near the customers. Secondary electrical distribution transfers the power from the transformer to the households.
Why leakage reactance is kept small?
Leakage reactance is useful for limiting the short circuit current in transformer and generators. therefore normally the reactance of transformer varies for 4.5% for distribution transformer to 12.5% for 400KV class.
