coupling transformers which are named UBT1, UBT2, UBT3 and UBT4. UBT1 and UBT4
are rated at 25MVA and UBT2 and UBT3 are rated at 10MVA. The coupling transformers
are used to step up or step down voltage on exportation and importation of electricity. The
10MVA coupling transformers have neutral earth on the 88KV side and the 11kv side for the
sake of importing and exporting electricity.
