CORE AND COIL:

1.1

The core shall be built of high quality, low loss, non-ageing high permeability grainoriented, cold rolled silicon steel lamination with very low magnetization losses and
annealed to relieve stresses and develop excellent magnetic properties.
The core-clamping frame shall be provided with lifting eyes for the purpose of taking
and inspecting the core with windings mounted thereon and shall have ample
strength to take the full weight of the core and winding assembly. The core
assembly shall be electrically connected to the transformer tank for effective core
earthing.
All insulating materials shall be of proven design. Coils shall be so insulated that
voltage stresses are minimum.
The windings shall be from electrolytic copper conductor of high conductivity with
suitable Class "A" insulation. The windings shall be duly sectionalised. Similar coils
shall be connected by accessible joints braced or welded and finished smooth.
Coil assembly shall be securely positioned with spacers, pressed board cylinders,
barriers and shall be so arranged as to allow free circulation of the oil.
All leads from the windings shall be suitably supported to prevent damage from
vibration or short-circuit stresses.
