Why distribution transformers?

5000-MW utility system

With reduction of losses Mexico will invest less in generation

VI. ConclusionsReduction of losses in three key elements of transformers.Extensive measurements of the load-loss test and no-load test were carried out on the test transformers.Tank losses were reduced 90 W using electromagnetics shielding.Tanks losses were reduced 200 W using T plate of stainless steel in a pad-mounted transformer.

ConclusionsBehaviour of no-load losses during the manufacturing of distribution transformer. Core losses were reduced when overlap distance were reduced from 2 cm to 1 cm.
