Power Transformer Pressure Relay Test - Videos and Related Books
Summary
Problems in power transformers cannot always be prevented, but they can be controlled. Protective devices can be used to prevent problems from becoming more serious and causing extensive damage. One type of protective device that is commonly used on a power transformer is a pressure relay. This 46-minute video covers the operation and testing of two basic types of pressure relays: sudden pressure and fault pressure.
