The range of Huapeng 220kV～500kV oil-immersed power transformers is from 20 up to
1200MVA. The production is based on world-wide
advanced technology and also incorporates our
long-term outstanding experiences. Low partial discharge and high short circuit withstand capability are
achieved in our 220kV～500kV transformer series. Huapeng 220kV～500kV transformers comply entirely with latest national standard GB1094.1～5 and
international standard IEC-60076. The outstanding
features are:

1. Low loss, low noise
The core laminations are composed of imported high quality grain-oriented cold-rolled silicon steel sheets with miter joints and the joints are lapped with 5 steps, thus ensuring low loss and low noise. The inside of the tank is lined with shields. Measures have also been taken for metallic structural parts located in high magnetic field, to reduce stray loss, thereby the total load loss, and to relieve local overheating.

2. Safe and reliable service
Reliability is the everlasting objective of Huapeng Co. Partial discharge of finished products are constantly kept below 100pC, ensuring that the transformers can be operated under long service voltage and also under short time overvoltage. Appropriate cooling arrangement and relatively low current density ensure that the winding temperature rise is much lower, at least 5K, than specified in the national standard. The mechanical stress in winding conductors during short circuit is also kept well below safe limit. Together with technological procedures during manufacture and other means to elevate mechanical strength, Huapeng 220kV～500kV transformers can withstand severe short circuit in all cases during service.

3. Easy erection and maintenance
To minimize erection work at site, Huapeng transformers are so fabricated that lifting the active part out of the tank for inspection after arrival at site is not mandatory. Besides, all components to be mounted on the transformer at site have been pre-assembled before dispatch, and all secondary wirings have been laid down into conduits on the transformer and connected to the terminals in the control cabinet or terminal box. Natural oil circulation and forced air cooling (ONAF) are generally adapted in our transformers below 480MVA, and 70% nameplate rating can be achieved in case the fans are out of service. Natural oil circulation is adapted in transformers below 240MVA.Little maintenance work is required for the cooling devices.

4. Careful fabrication
Vertical winding machines with tension device are used for winding, so that the windings can be wound tightly and therefore mechanically strong as a whole. All insulation parts subjected to mechanical stress during short circuit, such as spacers in windings are made with T4 densified pressboard to reduce shrinkage. Individual windings are dried first, followed by a second drying of the assembled phase block. After core and coil assembly, Vapor Phase Drying (VPD) is once again carried out to ensure that all insulation parts are thoroughly dried and no further shrinkage is possible to occur during service. All the high voltage terminals and nearby metallic structural parts are rounded up to prevent partial discharge. High voltage bushing terminals are contained within turrets, and kept concentric with the turret. All the leads are properly crimped and metallized to be rounded up. VPD process insures that the moisture content within the transformer is kept at a very low level, and the core and coil assembly is once more cleaned by condensed vapor flowing down the surfaces. The fabricated tanks are relieved from welding stress and shot-blasted integrally, so as to be free from oil leakage trouble and to give the tank a clean, pleasant looking appearance.
