Transformers are all around us in different segmentsYou will find ABB transformers…
… in buildings and in the airports we use when traveling,
… crossing oceans and on the sea bed,
… in substations that power our industrial areas,
… on the trains we ride and in the facilities that process our water,
… in wind turbines, solar fields, urban areas and house-holds.

Product highlights LMPT (Large Medium Power Transformer)UHVDC 600/660/800 kV DC
A completely new technology level enables bulk power transmission over long distances with low losses in one transmission line
Power transmission >7000 MW
Transmission length >2000 km
Losses 30% less compared to conventional technology
Less land and material needed for the overhead line
Gives access to remote hydro power
© ABB GroupNovember 10, 2014 | Slide 11
Product highlights LMPTNew world record – highest DC voltage level ever
The first delivered unit 1.6 MVA,11/1.04 kV
from 1998, in operation since 2000
Product highlights SPT (Small Power Transformer)Offshore technology – Subsea transformer
© ABB Group November 10, 2014 | Slide 12
Makes continuous production of oil and gas possible at depth of several kilometers
Development work started already at 80's. The first unit has been in operation since 2000
Subsea transformer applications: Step down transformers for feeding subsea
pumps and compressors Transformers for subsea pipeline heating Transformers for SEPDIS (Subsea distribution
system) Transformers for subsea frequency converters Transformers for Wave Hubs = connection points
of wave power stations to grids Transformers for Tidal turbines Transformers for offshore windmill parks

The new ABB solution for high voltage and large power Up to 72.5 kV insulation level and 63 MVA power rated
Secondary voltages up to 36 kV With or without on-load tap changer
Applications: Inner-city substations
Indoor and underground substations
Chemical, oil and gas industry
Environmentally sensitive areas
Renewable generation
Fire-risk areas
Technical advantages: For retrofit or new installations Safe and environmental friendly Cost-efficient
Product highlights dry-type transformers PoleDry
The new ABB proposal for pole-mount transformer applications From 50 kVA up to 250 kVA
Primary voltages up to 36 kV No enclosure
Benefits between existing model and new dry proposal: No risks of oil leakage or related soil contamination Not attractive for copper theft (need for separation of casted insulation
materials from copper) Safety for people and environment (reduced fire and explosion risks) Suitable for water, environment protection areas and for installations
close to buildings or transformers mounted on buildings Cost reduction of metallic enclosure

Product highlights dry-type transformers Submersible
Submersible Installations The absence of oil eliminate the threat to
the surrounding environment during an failure
Utility Network installation The unit is inside of completely sealed
tank and have been tested to IEEE C57.12.40 standard for network transformer
Range : up to 1000 kVA 15 kV

Shatter test / fault simulation of high voltage breakersPorcelain insulators vs composite insulators
Shatter test by rifle shoot to simulate: internal fault/ inner over pressure in the equipment external influence during e.g. transportation, installation, maintenance environmental influence e.g. earth quake, land slide, tornados vandalism e.g. throwing of rocks, shooting

Silicone is water and dirt repellent,external leakage currents are low
Elastic and stable over a wide temperature range
UV-resistant Tracking resistant Flame retardant Non-brittle Negligible ageing
Properties of silicone rubber
© ABB Group November 10, 2014 | Slide 50
HydrophobicityExcellent insulation
Water on a hydrophobic surface stays as water droplets and does not form a continuous film
Leakage currents are suppressed
Result is excellent insulation performance
© ABB Group November 10, 2014 | Slide 51
Silicone is naturally hydrophobic due to constant diffusion of low molecular weight (LMW) oils
Hydrophobic even though covered with pollution
No ageing effect on hydrophobicity or the material itself
