  2. TBEA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TBEA

    TBEA Co., Ltd., previously known as Tebian Electric Apparatus, is a Chinese manufacturer of power transformers and other electrical equipment, and a developer of transmission projects. Along with competitors Tianwei Baobian Electric (TWBB) and the XD Group , it is one of the major Chinese manufacturers of transformers.

  3. Tap changer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_changer

    However, a transformer may include a tap changer on each winding if there are advantages to do so. For example, in power distribution networks, a large step-down transformer may have an off-load tap changer on the primary winding and an on load automatic tap changer on the secondary winding or windings. The high voltage tap is set to match long ...

  4. Distribution transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_transformer

    Transformers designed for below-grade installation can be designed for periodic submersion in water. [14] Distribution transformers may include an off-load tap changer, which slightly adjusts the ratio between primary and secondary voltage to bring the customer's voltage within the desired range on long or heavily loaded lines. [citation needed]

    Briefly, these templates are not included in articles because 1) they are not well designed for mobile, and 2) they significantly increase page sizes—bad for mobile downloads—in a way that is not useful for the mobile use case. You can review/watch phab:T124168 for further discussion.

  6. Autotransformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autotransformer

    In electrical engineering, an autotransformer is an electrical transformer with only one winding. The "auto" (Greek for "self") prefix refers to the single coil acting alone. In an autotransformer, portions of the same winding act as both the primary winding and secondary winding sides of the transformer. In contrast, an ordinary transformer ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-contained_breathing...

    SCBA is intended to be personal protective equipment, but its use is not without cost. The weight of the unit and work of breathing affect the work capacity and agility of the wearer, and the full-face mask, while protecting the face and eyes from heat, smoke, and toxic gases, also reduces peripheral vision and awareness of the surroundings.

  8. Arcing horns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcing_horns

    Arcing horns protecting bushings on a distribution transformer. Arcing horns form a spark gap across the insulator with a lower breakdown voltage than the air path along the insulator surface, so an overvoltage will cause the air to break down and the arc to form between the arcing horns, diverting it away from the surface of the insulator. [3]

  9. Transformer types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_types

    Toroidal transformers have a lower external magnetic field compared to rectangular transformers, and can be smaller for a given power rating. However, they cost more to make, as winding requires more complex and slower equipment. They can be mounted by a bolt through the center, using washers and rubber pads or by potting in resin.
