Company: ET / RANCAGUA – VI Region.

Filtrations were repaired to the transformer or exterior mining substation:

– Nitrogen pressure was applied to reduce the quantity of silicon of the transformer and to situate it under the line of insulators.

– Change of base and cap packages of insulators in 4160V.

– Tightening of caps of insulators 13200V.

– Reincorporation of silicon apart to repair the transformer.

– Refill with 210 l. dielectric silicon to reach the normal level.

– By applying nitrogen pressure of 0.5kg/cm2 it is verified that the transformer filtrations are repaired.

– Measurement of the resistance of insulation:

  1. High voltage – Low voltage.
  2. High voltage – Mass.
  3. Low voltage – Mass.

– Measure of the resistance of primary and secondary coils in the position of tap it was placed.

– Measure of the reason of transformation in the position of tap it was placed.
