Total Cost of Ownership - TCO

On this sheet, users can calculate the TCO using equation A.1 from IEC TS 60076-20 for five different transformer designs.

where: IC is the initial cost of the transformer; this cost may include installation costs such as foundation and erection
P 0 is the no-load loss (kW) measured at the rated voltage and rated frequency, on the rated tap;
P k is the load loss (kW) due to the load, measured at the rated current and rated frequency on the rated tap a
P CS is the total cooling power (kW) needed for operation at the rated power (including three winding operatio
P C0 is the cooling power (kW) needed for no-load operation (note: this variable is set to zero for passively coo
A is the cost of capitalisation of no-load losses in cost per kW;
B is the cost of capitalisation of the losses due to load in cost per kW.

Instructions: enter values for each design into the yellow shaded cells.
