Power transformers – Part 5: Ability to withstand short circuit (original) (raw)

AI-generated Abstract

This document outlines the requirements for power transformers to endure the thermal and dynamic effects of external short circuits, as specified in IEC 60076. It details the calculation methods for assessing transformers' thermal resilience against overcurrents and describes the specific tests required to validate this capability. The standard ensures a consistent approach to transformer design and evaluation, facilitating international alignment in electrotechnical practices.
