OCTC means off circuit tap changer (off load tap changer) and OLTC means on load tap changer. in octc we can change the tap position while the transformer is in off condition only. we can not change the tap position of octc in charged condtion of the transformer. the tap position of octc can be change in deenrgise condion of transformer only means if you nwant to chang the tap position firstly you will have to deenrgise the power transformer then you can change the tap position of octc.while in oltc we can change the tap position of OLTC in charged condition of power transformer. This is the basic diffirence between OCTC and OLTC.generally the OCTC used in single phase generating transformer (G.T.Power Transformer) and OLTC used in three phase powwer Transformers like standby transformer and auto transformer in power plants and switch yards. for any other question please mail me at (ashu_uit2007@Yahoo.co.in )

How do you carry out short circuit test on power transformers?
For carrying Short Circuit Test on Power Transformer Do the following: 1] Isolate the Power Transformer from service. 2] Remove HV/LV Jumps and Disconnect Neutral from Earth/Ground. 3] Short LV Phases by Cu/Al plate which could withstand short circuit current and connect these short circuited terminals to Neutral 4] Energise HV side by LV supply (440 3ph Supply) with OLTC tap position on Normal. 5] Measure Current in Neutral, LV line voltages, HV Volatage and HV Line Currents on various OLTC Tap position. Analysis: If Neutral current is near to zero transformer windings are OK If Neutral current is higher or equal to Line current between LV Phase one of the winding is Open.
What is the main purpose of a transformer?
step up transformer output gives the high voltage which is useful for transmiission of electricity
Operation of on load tap changer in transformers?
OLTC - INSTALLED IN THE PRIMARY SIDE OF A POWER TRANSFORMER TO SELECT OR ADJUST VOLTAGE. THE ADVANTAGE OF THIS IS FOR SOLVING THE VOLTAGE DROP ISSUES IN THE SECONDARY OUTPUT IN THE FARTHEST LOCATION. FOR EXAMPLE YOUR SECONDARY VOLTAGE REQUIREMENT IS 380 VOLTS AND YOU CAN ADJUST TO 400 VOLTS FOR LONG CABLE RUNS.
What is the main function of a current transformer in switchyard substation?
use of CT
What is the use of ring main unit?
ring main unit is distributing the power supply to meter cubicalAnswerA ring-main unit (rmu) is a piece of switchgear that is used to connect a transformer's primary winding to a high-voltage ring main. It consists of three load-breaking switches, each with three positions: 'on', 'off', and 'earth'. They enable the transformer to be connected/disconnected to the ring; the ring to be 'broken'; or the transformer to be connected to either half of the broken ring. The 'earth' positions allow the transformer's secondary to be earthed, or either half of the (broken) ring to be earthed.
Why oltc is situated on primary side of traformer?
oltc is situated on primary side of transformer because by primary side we can obtain fine voltage change by tapping with low current flow through it.
What does OSR do in transformer?
OSR meance oil surge relay & it is used in x'mer OLTC . it is measured if any surge produce in oil then the give the signsl to relay panel for tripping of transformer
What is a transformer protector?
The TRANSFORMER PROTECTOR is a transformerexplosion and fire prevention system suitable for any type of oil-immersed transformer and including surrounding equipment such as the On Load Tap Changer (OLTC), Oil Cable Box (OCB), and Oil Bushing Cable Box (OBCB).
What will happend in oltc when voltage comes high?
If the OLTC is on the secondary, and the secondary voltage is high, the OLTC will tap down, which will lower the voltage. Typical range of OLTC is +/- 10%. The primary may also have multiple taps so the OLTC can be set at '0' under normal conditions.
What is rtcc pannel?
RTCC (Remote tap changer control) panel is one of the LT panel which has microcontroller, contactors, relays etc it senses the fluctuation in distribution voltage (input of Transformer) & give signal to OLTC to change the voltage(Output of the transformer) to set a value
What is the usage of transformer?
The usage of transformer is to produce electricity from a main electric unit

What is a main distributors service cable and what is it connected to when first enering a build?
The main supply will first come from the power company to a transformer to reduce the voltage then from the transformer to the weatherhead then through the house meter to the main disconnect on the outside of building then to the switchgears main. The cable coming from the transformer to the meter and to the top of the main disconnect is the Main service cable
Is Shia LaBeouf the main character in transformer?
Yes he is.
