The history of transformers

Transformers have been in use since 1886

Built by William Stanley (working for Westinghouse)
Used in Great Barrington, Massachusetts
The design concept remains the same
Copper and iron remain the core materials
Steel composition has changed over the years
Cooling methods have changed
How a transformer is designed has changed
Transformers all around us

Transformers are an every day essential component in the efficient

distribution of electricity
Without a transformer you dont get LV!

Principle operation of a transformer
A transformer works on the principle of electromagnetic induction.
If an alternating flux produced by an alternating current in one coil links
with a secondary coil, then an electro-motive force (e.m.f.) is induced in
the second coil, the magnitude of which is given by Faradays Law of

Summary
EcoDesign regulation imposes in EU the maximum level of losses for
transformers Placed On The Market or Put Into Service after 1.7.2015.

Rational : European Union commitments
EU is implementing
p g its 20-20-20 p
program
g by
y 2020 :
Reduction of 20 % of greenhouse gases emission
Reduction of 20% of energy consumption
Reach 20% from renewable energy in total production

Power Transformer losses represents approx. 2.5% of total EU energy consumption

By 2020, savings of approximately 16TWh/year are achievable with new regulation

EcoDesign aims two major objectives on the Transformer product:

Reduce electrical losses (1st step in 2015/ 2nd step in 2021)
Clarify and make more visible indication of performance
Harmonisation of maximum losses levels in European Union
Efficiency request on MPT for the 1st time
 EcoDesign impact on Transformers

Oil Distribution & Cast Resin Transformers :

New Defined Maximum level of losses for Oil Distribution and Cast Resin Dry Type
Transformers up to and including 3150kVA
Reduced Losses compared to transformers currently supplied

Medium Power and Large Power Transformers:

Defined Level of Peak Efficiency (Mix of load losses and no load losses) for
transformers >3150kVA

Special transformers are not impacted by this regulation

Significant increase of Equipment cost and weights

Reduction of operation cost (Total cost of ownership optimized)

 NMO Postion Paper 18/12/2014
Position Paper Issued to Clarify Definitions of the Eco Regulation,
specifically regarding Placed
Placed on the Market
Market and Putting into Service.

Excerpts from the Position Paper (grey text) :-

The Regulation establishes ecodesign requirements for placing on the market or putting into
service power Power Transformers with a minimum power rating of 1 kVA used in 50 Hz
electricity transmission and distribution networks or for industrial applications. The Regulation is
only applicable to Power Transformers purchased after the entry into force of the Regulation.

Placing on the Market is defined as making a product available for the first time on the
Community market with a view to its distribution or use within the Community, whether for
reward or free of charge and irrespective of the selling technique.

Putting into Service means the first use of a product for its intended purpose by an end-user in
the Community;

Entry into force of the Regulations is 10 June 2014

 NMO Postion Paper 18/12/2014 (continued)
Excerpts from the Position Paper (grey text) :-

Ready for use Power Transformers placed on the market before 1 July 2015 or purchased (as
described in recital four of the regulation) prior to 10 June 2014, can remain in the distribution
chain (e
(e.g.
g in the stocks of DNOs) regardless of the scheduled changes in the legislative
requirements. Power Transformers placed on the market before 1 July 2015 can be sold to the
end-user and can be energised after 1 July 2015 without regard to this regulation, provided they
are readyy for use.

Products are ready for use if they can be used as intended without the insertion of additional
parts; if all parts from which they are to be assembled are placed on the market by one person
only; if they only need to be mounted or plugged in; or they are placed on the market without the
parts that are usually procured separately and inserted for the intended use (e.g. a cable for
electric supply).

In Summary :-
Transformers manufactured prior to the 1st July 2015 - i.e. Placed on The Market do not have
to meet the ECO Regulation loss levels
These non ECO Regulation loss level transformers can be sold/supplied to customers after the
1st July 2015 provided they are Placed On The Market prior to 1st July 2015
These transformers can be installed, energised, commissioned etc after the 1st July 2015 without
regard to the Eco regulation
 Transformer Losses

Transformer Losses fall into two major categories:-

1) No Load Loss, also known as Iron Loss

2) Load Loss also known as Copper Loss

Schneider Electric - B.U. Energy LoB Transformer EcoDesign Regulation A new Standard for Transformer 06/2014 15
 Transformer Losses
1) No Load Loss or Iron Loss
Iron Loss arises within the magnetic core of a transformer and is due
to the energy consumed in hysteresis and eddy currents within the
material as it is taken through its alternating cycles of magnetisation
((UK 50 times per
p second i.e. 50Hz))
The magnetic core of a transformer is made up of thin laminations of
core steel which have a coating of insulation to reduce the eddy current
build up within the complete core.

Schneider Electric - B.U. Energy LoB Transformer EcoDesign Regulation A new Standard for Transformer 06/2014 16
 Transformer Losses
No Load Loss or Iron Loss (continued)
The characteristics of heat output (loss) from core material varies based on the
grade of material used and the working flux density

There are two ways of reducing Iron Loss in a Transformer :-

1) Reduce flux density by increasing the cross sectional area of the magnetic core.
2) By using higher grades of core steel to reduce the watts/kg for a particular
flux density.

The No Load Loss of a Transformer is a Constant Loss ( does not vary with load)

Either way or a combination of both means additional cost in the core

Schneider Electric - B.U. Energy LoB Transformer EcoDesign Regulation A new Standard for Transformer 06/2014 17
 Transformer Losses
Load Loss or Copper Loss
Load loss arises mainly as a result of the resistance of the transformer
windings, that is the I2R loss produced by the flow of load current within the
windings.
Increasing the copper cross sectional area within a transformer winding has
the effect of reducing the current density of the winding - this has the effect of
reducing the I2R losses.
The load loss of a transformer varies to the square of the load. i.e. at 50% load
the actual load losses are 0.5 x 0.5 = 25% of the full load loss.

 Loss Options of a Transformer
Within the UK there has been no usable standards that stipulate the loss levels that
g of transformers.
should be achieved for various ratings
The level of losses are created by the manufacturers and can be very different for
the same transformer rating.
e.g. For Schneider Electric Leeds, we used to offer various levels of losses
1) Industrial Loss
High Losses = Low First Cost = Increased Running Costs
2) Low Loss
Low to Medium Losses = Medium First Cost = Reduced Running Costs
3) Extra Low Loss
Low Losses = Increased First Cost = Further Reduced Running Costs

practice in Europe but not often used in UK taken from EN50464
