Insulation of windings

 

I. Read and translate the text. Pay attention to the words given below.

layer

immerse

transformer oil

corona discharge

capability

deteriorate

casing

seal

moisture

ingress

medium

epoxy resin

impregnate ,

dirt

environment .

The turns of the windings must be insulated from each other to ensure that the current travels through the entire winding. The potential difference between adjacent turns is usually small, so that enamel insulation is usually sufficient for small power transformers. Supplemental sheet or tape insulation is usually employed between winding layers in larger transformers.

The transformer may also be immersed in transformer oil that provides further insulation. Although the oil is primarily used to cool the transformer, it also helps to reduce the formation of corona discharge within high voltage transformers. By cooling the windings, the insulation will not break down as easily due to heat. To ensure that the insulating capability of the transformer oil does not deteriorate, the transformer casing is completely sealed against moisture ingress. Thus the oil serves as both a cooling medium to remove heat from the core and coil, and as part of the insulation system.

Certain power transformers have the windings protected by epoxy resin. By impregnating the transformer with epoxy under a vacuum, air spaces within the windings are replaced with epoxy, thereby sealing the windings and helping to prevent the possible formation of corona and absorption of dirt or water. This produces transformers suitable for damp or dirty environments, but at increased manufacturing cost.

 

II. Answer the questions.

 

1. Must the turns of the windings be insulated from each other? Why?

2. Is the enamel insulation sufficient for small power transformers?

3. What is usually employed between winding layers in larger transformers?
