The values for prices and efficiency are estimated from plot
diagrams. (Losses from the total efficiency are a ratio of 1/7
between no-load losses and load losses for traditional type of
distribution transformer, and a ratio of 1/18 for amorphous
type.) The transformers have 50-kVA nominal ratings and are
liquid-filled single-phase type. The evaluation from Table 5
shows that the most expensive transformer (amorphous core
type and Cu- winding) is the most economical choice in the
view of losses and price. In this case, the amorphous core type
transformer will give the lowest total ownership cost
independently of the load profile. Both no-load and load
losses have the lowest values for the amorphous core type
transformer. The ratio between the two types of losses can be
optimised by the manufacturer, designed to fit the actual load
profile. For instance, the no-load losses can be lowered and
load losses increased for amorphous transformer at a fixed
price, which means better conditions at low load.
In CICED2008 [9] the price, load losses and no-load losses
are compared for distribution transformers 100 kVA to 2,500
kVA, classified as SBH15 and S11 type transformers. SHB15
is an amorphous core type and S11 is a typical low loss
traditional liquid filled distribution transformer. Table 6 is
compiled from this information, for a couple of representative
ratings. Loss evaluations are calculated in the same way as the
previous method. The evaluation also shows the most
expensive transformer (amorphous core type) to be the most
economic choice considering losses and price. If a higher loss
valuation will be used, the advantages for amorphous core
material will be even greater.
From these two studies, the amorphous core material has
economic advantages and shows, in this way, to be the best

A Eliasson received his M.Sc. degree in electrical
engineering (power systems, 2009) from Chalmers
University of technology, Sweden. In 2009 he joined
Vattenfall Power Consultant AB. He is now project
manager for different R&D projects as well as MV and
HV substation projects.
