sound level and voltage connections shall be in accordance with NEMA Standards. The core shall be constructed of high-grade gain oriented silicone steel laminations to reduce size, sound and losses. The coils shall be of rectangular construction utilizing extra strong, electrical grade, adhesive coated paper between turns. The core and coil assembly shall be installed in a sealed tank, immersed in insulated liquid to prevent dirt, moisture and corrosive elements from deteriorating the electrical and mechanical integrity of the transformer. Transformer shall have four approximately 2.5 percent rated kVA taps, two above and two below rated primary voltage. These taps shall be available by means of an externally operated manual tap changer for operation only when transformer is de-energized, provisions for padlocking the tap changer. - Windings : HV Copper / LV Aluminum - Provisions for lifting and jacking - Cover vent plug - Drain and sampling device - No Load tap changer with handle on - Pressure test valve front wall of transformer - Two tank grounding pads - Tank hand hole on transformer cover - Pressure vacuum gauge - Top filter-press connection - Anodized Aluminum - Liquid level gauge - Dial type - Pressure relief device (Silicone units) - 12 PSI tank ( __ ) Windings : All Copper ( __ ) Pressure relief device * ( __ ) Fault pressure relay* ( __ ) Winding temperature indicator* ( __ ) Pressure relief device (Oil Units) ( __ ) Liquid level gauge * ( __ ) Dial type thermometer* *Device with electrical contacts
