ABSTRACT

Due to the increasing age of the power transformer park, a residual resource is required to remedy the problem.

Recently, periodic inspection techniques of energised and off-line transformers have been utilised for this purpose to estimate technical transformer status and make recommendations for service life extension.

The Transformer Diagnostics Monitoring (TDM) system is defined in this paper as a system that assesses the status of all transformer parts (windings, core, bushings, LTS, oil, etc.

Keywords: Real-time monitoring (RTM), real-time data logging (RTDL), condition monitoring, On-Load Tap Changer (OLTC), diagnosis (fault); monitoring; transformer.
