Fault current leads to large axial and radial forces on windings, which have to be managed by proper structural design. Test experience, showing a failure rate of 20-25 % of well-prepared transformers, suggests that the highest degree of reliability with respect to short-circuit withstand verification is ensured through full-scale testing in accordance with the international standards. The prime failure mode is winding deformation, but many other deficiencies, which would not be discovered in a design review, have also been observed.</p> <h6>Keywords</h6> <p> <a href="https://hrcak.srce.hr/pretraga?type=napredna&field[]=article_keywords&term[]=%22transformer%22">transformer</a>; <a href="https://hrcak.srce.hr/pretraga?type=napredna&field[]=article_keywords&term[]=%22+short+circuit%22"> short circuit</a>; <a href="https://hrcak.srce.hr/pretraga?type=napredna&field[]=article_keywords&term[]=%22+testing%22"> testing</a>; <a href="https://hrcak.srce.hr/pretraga?type=napredna&field[]=article_keywords&term[]=%22+certification%22"> certification</a>; <a href="https://hrcak.srce.hr/pretraga?type=napredna&field[]=article_keywords&term[]=%22+reliability%22"> reliability</a> </p> <h6>Hrčak ID: </h6> <p>202460</p> <h6>URI</h6> <p><a href="https://hrcak.srce.hr/202460">https://hrcak.srce.hr/202460</a> </p> <h6>Publication date:</h6> <p>8.7.2017.</p> <p> </p> <p class="text-center mt-5">Visits: 1.267 <a href="https://hrcak.srce.hr/posjecenost-objasnjenje">*</a> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <!-- JATS --> </div> </div> </div> </div> <script src = "https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script> <script> $('#cite_link').click(function(){ $('#cite').slideToggle('fast'); return false; }); $('#verzije_link').click(function(){ $('#verzije').slideToggle('fast'); return false; }); </script> </div> <footer class="footer"> <div class="container-fluid"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12"> <div class="footerLinks"> <span> 2021 © Portal of Croatian scientific and professional journals - HRČAK </span> <div> <a href="https://wiki.srce.hr/x/xIB3Aw" target="_blank">Accessibility statement</a> | <a href="https://www.srce.unizg.hr/en/privacy-policy" target="_blank">Privacy policy</a> | <a href="/kontakt">Contact</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </footer> </div> <script src="/javno/assets/js/vendor.min.js"></script> <script src="/javno/assets/libs/moment/moment.min.js"></script> <script src="/javno/assets/js/app.min.js"></script> <script src="/javno/assets/js/pristupacnost.js"></script> <script> var options = { icon: { circular: true, img: 'accessibility', } } window.addEventListener('load', function () { new Pristupacnost(options); }, false); </script> <script> (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){ (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga'); ga('create', 'UA-3867323-1', 'auto'); ga('send', 'pageview'); </script> </body> </html>
