Some important Indian Standards related to Transformer are as follows:

* Specification for Power Transformers. IS2026 (Part I to IV)

* Specification for outdoor Three Phase Distribution Transformer up to and Including 100 KVA, 11 KV. :
IS 1180 Part (I & II)
* Specification for dry type Transformer. IS 11171
* Specification for Control Transformer For switchgear and control gear for Voltages not exceeding 1000
V A.C.: IS 12021
* Specification for Current Transformer. IS 2705 (Part I & II )
* Specification for Voltage Transformer. IS 3156 (Part I to IV)
* Classification of Insulating materials For Electrical machinery and apparatus in relation to their thermal
stability In service: IS 1271
* Degree of protection provided by Enclosures for low voltage switchgear and control gear: IS 2147.
* Specification for new Insulating Oil IS 335In-house Testing:
All Transformer are used to carry out the minimum required tests on the transformer ( as per Indian
Standard ) as follows:
1. Insulation Resistance Test.
2. Winding resistance test.
3. No load loss test.
4. Ratio, Polarity & Phase relationship test.
5. Load loss test.
6. No load loss test.
7. Pressure Test.
8. DVDF test.
9. High voltage test.
10. Vector group test in case of three phase Transformer.
11. Measurement of impedance Voltage.
12. Oil BDV test for Oil Cooled transformer.

13. Temperature Rise Test by Impedance Loading method.

Sound Levels:
All make Transformers are satisfactorily meet the ANSI Standard C89.2 and NEMA ST -20 sound levels
and will not exceed as following table :
KVA Max.

Class of Insulation:
We are using excellent insulating materials like Nomex, Glass, Film etc which are strong enough and
better in dielectric strength, as a result we can increase the maximum allowable temperature resulting
the overload strength is strong specially in case of Dry type Transformer. We are maintaining the
maximum temperature rise limited to the previous class of insulation ,such as if we claim class of
insulation H , temperature rise will be limited to class of F ( usually we consider ambient
temperature as 45 Deg.C. if not specified by the client).
As per IS and other International Standard
Tempt. Class Max.
