Advantages of Hermetically Sealed
Transformers:
• Hermetically Sealed Transformers are used in high
humid environments, where there is limitation of
maintenance services and limited space for installation
such as pole mounted transformers, package or
compact substations.
• The oil will not come in contact with air, thus ensuring
preservation of its dielectric integrity.
• Virtually no maintenance required, e.g. no checking
required of silica gel breather, and no need to monitor
water ingress.
• Transformers occupy smaller space leaving more room
for connections in compact installations.
• High reliability of the tanks which is proven by stringent
fatigue and over pressure tests carried out on
transformers of this type.
Package/Compact Substations
The Package Substation is a compact arrangement, which
simplifies conventional substation designs. Substation
housing is divided into three compartments i.e. the HV
compartment, the transformer compartment and the LV
compartment.

significant FEATURES
• Design conforms to IEC 62271-202 and customer
specified other standards
• Fully compartmentalized design
• Removable roof with single lift complete unit
• IP 23 standard degree of protection available for
enclosure as per IEC (higher IP class can be provided if
required)
• Designed to withstand electrical impulses, thermal
and dynamic stresses
• Compact, and occupies less floor space
• Easy to install, operate and maintain, with a theft
proof design
• Special durability in extreme weather conditions
• Tailored configuration to meet customer requirements
• Enclosure with guaranteed corrosion protection

MAIN ADVANTAGES
• Reduced Electrical losses as Package Substations
can be provided near load centres
• Cost effective
• A high degree of safety and operational reliability is
achieved by HT and LT Switchgears and protective
relays, to avoid overloading
• Reduction in logistic costs as Package Substations are
delivered as single units
• Low civil/ foundation cost

• Minimum stress loads on the dielectric
