n) Efficiency, minimum of: 99%

Standards
The transformers shall be designed, manufactured, and tested in accordance with the
applicable IEC standard.

Impedance
The transformer impedance shall be coordinated with the short circuit current of the
downstream systems and shall have proper short circuit power for motor starting. In any case
minimal impedance values shall be as per IEC 60076-5 Table 1.

Temperature Rise
The observable temperature rise of the transformer or parts thereof as determined by
resistance of the windings, shall be Class B (80°C) in accordance with IEC 60076-11 at rated
kVA on the tap connections that give the highest winding temperature rise, and the winding
