10. Commissioning
This section describes tasks to be carried out when the transformer is being installed and
tested on site.
CAUTION
The motor-drive mechanism must be protected against condensation.
Energize the heater when power is available. When not available, put drying agent inside the
motor-drive cabinet and seal the vents.
10.1 Reassembly
Reassemble the conservator and all other accessories which may have been dismantled for
the transport. Remember the O-rings in the flanges.
The pressure relay is usually delivered in a separate package and installed at commissioning.
Depending on the transport requirements, the transformer may be delivered with the motor-
drive mechanism and drive-shaft system mounted or not mounted. If any shafts have been
dismantled, see section 5.3 for assembly. Note especially section 5.3.2 points 8 and 9 for
syncronizing. The on-load tap-changer may be delivered filled with oil or without oil. Please
use the relevant parts of this manual to carry out commissioning.
For information about tools, materials and oil required, see relevant parts in chapter 1 of this
guide.
10.2 Oil filling
See chapter 7.
10.3 Electrical connection and testing
Do all wiring work and perform the appropriate tests as described in chapter 8.
Remove the drying agent inside the cabinet of the motor-drive mechanism. Check that the
air vents are open.
10.3.1 Motor protection
The function of the protective motor switch should be checked. For three-phase AC motors,
remove one of the phase fuses and check the function time of the protective motor switch
by a RAISE or LOWER operation. The protective motor switch should release within 60 sec-
onds at a current setting equal to the rated current of the motor at the actual voltage.
CAUTION
If the protective motor switch has not released within 60 seconds, disconnect the power
and check the settings with the rating plate of the motor. Adjust if necessary and check
again when the motor has cooled down.
WARNING
The motor power voltage is dangerous.
Protective motor switches for DC motors and for single-phase AC motors are not tested.
