BA5789879-01 EN

Maintenance

The product is maintenance-free.

Inspection

Depending on the conditions of use of the device and the national regula-
tions in the respective country of use, the transformer manufacturers can
specify different inspection intervals.

► Observe the inspection intervals defined in CIGRE Publication No. 445

"Guide for Transformer Maintenance" or the inspection intervals specified
by the transformer manufacturer.

The following checks are necessary for

each

transformer inspection:

▪ Visual inspection for leakages, corrosion and damage

▪ Function test; see Commissioning [

►

Section 6, Page 41]

In addition, the following checks are necessary during every

second

trans-

former inspection:

▪ Visual inspection for leakages, corrosion and damage

under

the cover

► To do so, remove the cover; see [

►

Section 5.1, Page 27]. (For OD cover

only: First remove the pipe connection of the oil escape opening; see
[

►

Section 5.2, Page 30].)

▪ Visual inspection of the compression spring

▪ Visual inspection of the flange

▪ Visual inspection of the switches
