What is BS EN IEC 60076‑24 about?
BS EN IEC 60076‑24 is part 24 of a multi-part series European standard which discusses about voltage regulating distribution transformers (VRDT) which ensures the operational safety of power transformers.
BS EN IEC 60076‑24 applies to medium power transformers from 25 kVA up to 3 150 kVA with highest voltage for equipment up to 36 kV, or in low voltage (LV) networks with highest voltage for equipment of up to 1,1 kV equipped with voltage regulating devices.
BS EN IEC 60076‑24 defines voltage regulating distribution transformers as transformers equipped with components to control primary or secondary voltage for on-load voltage regulation purposes.
Who is BS EN IEC 60076‑24 for?
BS EN IEC 60076‑24 on voltage regulating distribution transformers is useful for:
- Manufacturers of distribution transformers
- Companies dealing with voltage regulating distribution transformers
- Quality and safety inspection services
Why should you use BS EN IEC 60076‑24?
Power transformer means static piece of apparatus which contains two or more windings by electromagnetic induction, transforms a system of alternating current and voltage into another systems of alternating current and voltage which has different values nut same frequency for transmitting purpose.
BS EN IEC 60076‑24 provides you information on environmental conditions, electrical characteristics, service life, parallel operations, loss level, sound power level and rating plate which allows you to standardize the production of VRDT. BS EN IEC 60076‑24 also provides you guidance on voltage regulating distribution transformers (VRDT) such as: regulation voltage, regulation range, regulation steps and control unit, which helps in specifying voltage regulating distribution transformers (VRDT) for power transformers according to specified protocols.
As a user of BS EN IEC 60076‑24, you will be able to acquire a better power transformer as it provides you the routine test, functional tests, type test and special tests for voltage regulating distribution transformers (VRDT).
