What is BS EN 50708-2-5 about?
BS EN 50708-2-5 is part two to five of a multi-series standard. This series deals with the energy performance of liquid single-phase medium power transformers.
BS EN 50708-2-5 specifies the rating and general requirements of a single-phase medium power transformer.
NOTE 1: BS EN 50708-2-5 contains particular requirements for specific transformers or transformer applications, which are based on the requirements of the general EN 50708-1-1:2020.
NOTE 2: BS EN 50708-2-5 should be considered in conjunction with the requirements of the general parts.
Who is BS EN 50708-2-5 for?
BS EN 50708-2-5 on additional European requirements of medium power transformer is for:
- Single-phase medium power transformer manufacturers
- Suppliers and dealers of single-phase power transformer
- Importers of single-phase power transformer
Why should you use BS EN 50708-2-5?
Single-phase transformers represent a small part of network transformers in European countries with a large diversity of specifications and applications. The standard components for this kind of transformer are difficult to reach as no common rules were established to define standard losses until now.
Thus, BS EN 50708-2-5 has been chosen to procure guidance for you to create uniformity in component reference for the single-phase medium power transformer in the market. It helps you to reduce confusion and find a compatible transformer for your system.
BS EN 50708-2-5 gives you information about technical specifications, documentation, and all the additional requirements that are needed so that you can manufacture single-phase medium power transformers in compliance with European standards.
