Product Features
Insulation and Electrical Performance
- Designed for 35 kV systems:
The transformer is specifically designed for 35 kV power systems with a maximum operating voltage of 40.5 kV. It can withstand the specified power-frequency and lightning impulse withstand voltage tests required for 35 kV medium-voltage distribution systems. - Fully enclosed epoxy resin cast insulation:
The transformer is integrally formed using an epoxy resin vacuum-casting process. The solid insulation body contains no internal air gaps and provides excellent dielectric performance. - Low partial discharge:
Partial discharge is limited to no more than 10 pC, helping reduce insulation ageing and improve long-term operational reliability. - Oil-free dry-type construction:
The product contains no insulating oil, eliminating the risks of oil leakage, oil contamination, and oil-related fire hazards. - High pollution-flashover resistance:
The high-voltage side features a multi-shed insulation structure that significantly increases the creepage distance and improves resistance to surface flashover in humid or polluted indoor environments. - Multifunctional winding configuration:
The built-in residual voltage winding provides a 100/3 V output for system earth-fault detection and insulation monitoring. It is suitable for three-phase, five-limb voltage transformer connection arrangements. - Multiple voltage ratios and accuracy classes:
Standard voltage ratios, such as 35/0.1/0.1/3 kV, are available. Metering accuracy classes up to Class 0.2 can be supplied, while protection accuracy classes such as 3P and 6P can be customized. - Capacitor bank discharge function:
The F-type model can meet the electrical parameter requirements of capacitor bank discharge coils while also providing voltage measurement and monitoring functions.
Structural and Installation Features
- Fully enclosed dry-type structure:
The magnetic core, windings, and live components are enclosed within the epoxy resin cast body. The product provides an IP20 protection rating and contains no insulating oil. - Compact design:
The compact structure is compatible with standard 35 kV switchgear mounting dimensions and supports space-efficient cabinet layouts. - Integrated multifunctional design:
The F-type model combines the functions of a voltage transformer and capacitor bank discharge coil. It can simultaneously provide voltage monitoring and release residual charge from the capacitor bank. - Reduced equipment requirements:
The integrated design reduces the number of individual components required inside the switchgear, saving installation space and lowering system costs. - Clearly identified secondary terminals:
The secondary terminals are protected by a transparent cover and clearly marked for convenient wiring. Metering, protection, and residual-voltage circuits can be connected separately. - Secure bolt mounting:
The metal base is provided with mounting holes for horizontal bolt installation inside indoor switchgear. The structure provides reliable mechanical stability and vibration resistance.
Operation and Maintenance Features
- Low-maintenance operation:
The dry-type, oil-free design eliminates leakage and oil-related fire risks. The epoxy resin body provides high mechanical strength, impact resistance, and ageing resistance. - Reduced maintenance points:
The F-type model does not require a separate capacitor bank discharge coil, reducing the number of components requiring inspection and maintenance. - Wide operating temperature range:
The transformer can operate at ambient temperatures from -30°C to +70°C. The epoxy resin maintains stable mechanical and insulation properties under both high- and low-temperature conditions. - High-reliability construction:
The magnetic core is made from high-quality laminated silicon steel sheets, while the windings are wound with enamelled copper wire. - Low operating losses:
The optimized magnetic core and winding design provide low losses, limited temperature rise, and stable measurement accuracy. - Overvoltage withstand capability:
The product can withstand switching and lightning overvoltages within its specified insulation level, ensuring reliable metering, protection, and insulation-monitoring signals.

Installation and Maintenance
Installation Requirements
- Pre-installation inspection:
Inspect the voltage transformer and confirm that the cast body is free from cracks, bubbles, mechanical damage, and other visible defects. Check that all terminal markings are clear and that the supplied accessories are complete. Verify that the model, voltage ratio, accuracy class, and other specifications match the system design requirements. For F-type models, confirm that the discharge function parameters meet the requirements of the reactive power compensation equipment. - Mounting:
Position the voltage transformer at the specified location inside the switchgear and secure it with bolts through the mounting holes in the base. Ensure that the transformer is firmly installed without looseness or displacement. The mounting surface should be level to avoid uneven mechanical stress. - High-voltage-side connection:
Connect the high-voltage terminal according to the system design. Ensure that all connections are secure and provide reliable electrical contact. Maintain adequate electrical clearance between the high-voltage conductor, grounded components, and other live parts to prevent electrical discharge. The F-type model must also be connected according to the applicable capacitor bank discharge coil wiring requirements. - Low-voltage-side connection:
Connect the secondary terminals according to their markings. Metering, protection, and residual-voltage circuits must be wired separately and correctly. The secondary circuit must not be short-circuited during operation. One point of the secondary circuit must be reliably earthed according to the system design and applicable electrical safety requirements. - Insulation inspection:
After installation, measure the insulation resistance between:- High voltage and low voltage
- High voltage and earth
- Low voltage and earth
Maintenance Requirements
- Regularly inspect the epoxy resin body for cracks, mechanical damage, discharge marks, and contamination.
- Check the high-voltage terminals for looseness, oxidation, or abnormal heating.
- Inspect the insulating sheds for accumulated dust or contamination.
- Regularly inspect the high-voltage and low-voltage wiring to ensure that all connections remain secure and free from overheating or discoloration.
- Confirm that the secondary-circuit earthing remains reliable.
- Periodically test the insulation resistance and voltage ratio to verify that the metering and protection accuracy remain within the specified limits.
- Check the residual voltage circuit and insulation-monitoring function.
- For F-type models, periodically test the capacitor bank discharge function and related electrical parameters.
- Clean dust and contamination from the transformer surface and insulating sheds.
- Prevent oil and corrosive substances from contacting the epoxy resin body.
- If cracking, electrical discharge, overheating, excessive voltage-ratio error, or functional failure is detected, immediately de-energize and inspect the equipment. Replace the transformer where necessary.
Precautions
- The secondary winding must not be short-circuited while the transformer is energized. A secondary short circuit may produce excessive current and create a serious risk to equipment and personnel. During maintenance, the transformer must be de-energized, and the secondary circuit must be safely isolated and earthed in accordance with applicable procedures.
- Avoid impact or collision with the epoxy resin body, high-voltage terminals, and insulating sheds during transportation and installation. Mechanical damage may reduce insulation performance and pollution-flashover resistance.
- Use suitable insulated conductors for high-voltage connections. Maintain adequate electrical clearance from grounded components and other live parts to prevent phase-to-phase or phase-to-earth discharge.
- The F-type model must be connected in accordance with both voltage transformer and capacitor bank discharge coil wiring requirements.
- The equipment must be reliably earthed. The grounding terminal on the metal base must be securely connected to the switchgear grounding busbar.
- Store the product in a dry, ventilated, and shaded environment. Avoid direct sunlight, high temperatures, moisture, compression, and mechanical impact.
- Installation, commissioning, and maintenance must be carried out by qualified electrical personnel in accordance with applicable electrical safety procedures.
