Best Answer

Yearly maintenance should include blowing out dust and then vacuuming up the dust. While the transformer is down all the bolts and terminations should be checked for tightness. Make sure that the vents in the case are not blocked by foreign objects that happen to be in the same room as the transformer.

What is difference between a wet type and dry type transformer?

Transformer oil is a much better electrical insulator than air. So, in large transformers, oil is used to reduce the flashover distances between live internal parts, thus reducing the overall bulk of the transformer. At the same time, oil helps cool the transformer either by natural convection, or by forced circulation.'Dry transformers' are transformer that do not use oil for insulation or cooling purposes. They tend to be transformers with lower voltage and power ratings, where flashover and cooling is far less relevant.

What is a dry-type transformer?

Electric company high voltage transformers used in the utility grid are typically insulated by being immersed in a tank of oil, and cooled by natural convection (circulation) of the oil. A "dry type" transformer is not immersed in oil, and is cooled by air convection or by fans.


Is dry type transformer air conditioned?

To my knowledge no transformer is air conditioned. Some transformers have fans mounted on them, however, for uprating purposes. I don't believe this is an effective cooling mechanism for dry type transformers either (fans are usually used on oil filled transformers).
