  • the middle Winding sectiqn y be 1,057,077 3/1913 Moody....
  • a tap arrangement widely used in power transformers uses two high voltage windings sections with two intermediate tap terminals connected to each winding section.
  • the tap terminals are locatedvnear the end of the winding section which is adjacent to the tapped end of the other winding section.
  • the voltage rating of the high voltage winding may be increased or decreased by 5 in 2%percent steps. This is usually accomplished by connecting jumper connectors between the appropriate taps before the transformer is energized. For example, a transformer having a nominal high voltage, rating of 7,200 volts may be jumped to change its high voltage winding rating to 6,840, 7,020, 7,380 or 7,560 volts.
  • the tapping arrangement functions satisfactorily, it has certain inherent disadvantages.
  • the number of tap terminals which must be jumped equals six; the four intermediate tap terminals and two end terminals.
  • the probability of making a defective jumper connection increases with the number of tap terminals involved.
  • the four intermediate tap terminals are made between the ends of the winding sections. This requires a splice or braze to be made within the winding section and increases the probability of defective joints and stray brazing material in the apparatus, and increases the labor required to form the taps.
  • Short circuit strength is an important factor in determining the usefulness of a power transformer.
  • the physical size of the low voltage winding is related to the physical size of the high voltage winding. Since the low voltage winding tends to collapse under short circuit conditions, the sizes of the windings are important in determining their resistance to short circuit stresses. In other words, the smaller and more compact the winding is, the easier it is to secure and brace against short circuit stresses. Therefore, it is also an object of this invention to provide a high voltage tapped winding which requires less physical space than the prior art winding arrangement.
  • the winding is divided into three axially adjacent winding sections.
  • the middle winding section includes a center-tap terminal and has a voltage rating equal to one-half of the desired voltage rating range of the entire winding.
  • An end terminal for each of the two outside winding sections, the two end terminals of the middle winding section, and the center-tap terminal may be interconnected in various arrangements to provide different ratings for the overall winding voltage.
  • FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a single phase transformer having a high voltage winding structure constructed according to the teachings of this invention
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a transformer constructed according to the teachings of this invention.
  • FIG. 3 is a table illustrating some of the possible terminal interconnections which may be used to change the voltage rating of the transformer.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown a sectional view of a single phase power transformer.
  • a laminated magnetic core of the cruciform type is secure by the top end frame 12 and the bottom end frame 14.
  • the locking plates 16 and also help to hold the laminations of the core 10 together with the use of the bolts 18 which project through the core 10.
  • the low voltage or secondary winding 20 is positioned concentrically around a leg of the magnetic core 10. Spacing rods 22 center the secondary winding 20 and help prevent collapse of the winding structure under short circuit stresses.
  • the high voltage or primary winding structure 24 is concentrically disposed around the secondary winding 20 and comprises: a plurality of radially disposed conductor turns which form an array of coil disks stacked in an axial direction. The primary winding 24 is secured and compressed by the pressure blocks 26 and the pressure rings 28.
  • the winding structures 20 and 24 which are shown disposed on the magnetic core 10 have similar counterparts in the windings 30 and 32, which are disposed on the other core leg.
  • An insulated barrier 34 separates the winding structures.
  • coil disk interconnections, radial spacers, and tap terminals are not illustrated relative to the winding 24, it is to be understood that they may be present as illustrated in relation to the winding 32 and as will be described hereinafter in more detail.
  • the main leads of the windings are not shown for clarity of the figure, however, the main lead arrangement may be such that the separate leg windings may be connected in series or in parallel circuit relationship. It is also within the contemplation of this invention that the primary winding 32 may be disposed on a core leg of a multiple phase transformer core.
  • the high voltage or primary winding 32 comprises three winding sections.
  • the tap terminals 36, 38, 40, 42 are connected to The tap terminals 36, 38, 40, 42.
  • winding sections and 44 provide means for interconnecting the winding sections. Jumper connections are usually used for this purpose and may be attached to the proper terminal by nut and bolt means.
  • the three winding sections are all concentrically disposed around the secondary winding 30, .with each winding section located in a different axial position from that of the other winding sections.
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating the position of the tap terminals.
  • the high voltage or primary winding 32 comprises the winding sections 46, 48 and 50.
  • winding sections 46 and 50 will have the same number of turns, thus the same voltage rating.
  • the winding section 48 will have a lower voltage rating than either of the other two winding sections.
  • the winding section 48 has a voltage rating which is equal to 5 percent of the sum of the voltage ratings of the windings sections 46 and 50.
  • the reference letters A, B, C, D and E correspond to the tap terminals 36, 38, 40, 42 and 44 respectively.
  • the tap terminal 36 is located at the end of the winding section 46 and the tap terminal 44 is located at the end of the winding section 50.
  • the tap terminals 38 and 42 are located at the ends of the winding section 48 and the tap terminal 40 is located at the center of the winding section 48.
  • the total voltage rating of the winding 32 which exists between the terminals 52 and 54 is dependent upon the connection arrangement of the jumper connectors.
  • connection arrangement may be such to add or subtract part or all of the voltage of the winding section 48 to the other winding sections, or it may be such to bypass the voltage of the winding section 48 completely.
  • FIG. 3 is a table representing some possible connection arrangements. The table of FIG. 3 is based on a middle winding section, such as the winding section 48, having a voltage rating equal to 5 percent of the sum of the voltage ratings of the other winding sections. Other voltage ratings are within the contemplation of this invention.
  • the voltage rating of the winding 32 is 5 percent below a predetermined nominal value.
  • the voltage rating is 2%percent below the nominal value.
  • the nominal voltage rating is obtained when A is connected to E.
  • Connection to the tap terminal C may be desirable to reduce the floating effects of the winding section 48.

When they are connected in phase, an increase in the nominal voltage rating occurs. The increase is 2 /percent when A is connected to B and C is connected to E. The increase is a 5 percent when A is connected to B and D is connected to E.
