Typical Values on Losses & Impedances of Distribution Transformers
Typical Values on Losses & Impedances of Distribution Transformers
(OP)
Hello everyone!
Im specifying the losses and impedance of a distribution transformer. I believe that all these parameters are affected by the efficiency being specified as well.
In this regard, can you provide me a table on typical values of impedances & losses of distribution transformers? I will use this as my reference.
Regards,
GRAEE

If you have a concern about voltage regulation, you might want to consider specifying a maximum impedance. If you have a concern about fault current, you might want to consider specifying a minimum impedance.
You might also want to consider evaluating load and no-load losses instead of specifying either losses or efficiency.
In addition to searching manufacturers' sites, see NEMA TP-1 Guide for Determining Energy Efficiency for Distribution Transformers at http://www.nema.org/stds/tp1.cfm

If the manufacturer exceed the guarantee number then you can get some money back.( must be stated in the contract)
When you specified the impedance leave your self a room for errors because design engineer has 7% deviation from guarantee impedance....
