Thus:
Switching devices are located in their own switching
compartment to separate the contaminated oil from the
oil in the main tank.

On-load tap-changer features
Tap changers possess two fundamental features:
They give the least electrical stress between the tap changer
and earth; along with subjecting the tappings to less physical
and electrical stress from fault currents entering the line
terminals
On-load tap-changer
Tap changers can be connected to the primary or secondary
side windings of the transformer depending on:
•Current rating of the transformer
•Insulation levels present
•Type of winding within the transformer (e.g. Star, delta or
autotransformer)
• Position of tap changer in the winding
•Losses associated with different tap changer configurations
e.g. Coarse tap or reverse winding
•Step voltage and circulating currents
•Cost
•Physical size
How a tap-changer work
•The diverter switch then transfers the current from the in service
tap to the pre-selected tap.
•This also limits circulating current between the two taps of the
regulating winding being switched.
tap-changer operating mechanism
•The tap changer is driven from the motor drive box by
interconnecting shafts, bevel gears and the upper gear unit.
• The upper gear unit reduces the rotary motion to half a revolution
per tap change operation and drives the insulating shafts of the
diverter switch contact not yet under load.
