Federal Pacific Medium Voltage Transformer Catalog Federal Pacific Medium Voltage Transformer Catalog Federal Pacific History In 1987, Electro-Mechanical Corporation acquired the dry-type transformer division of Federal Pacific Electric in Des Plaines, Illinois. It was moved to Bristol, Virginia and the name was changed to Federal Pacific (FP). A new 100,000 square foot facility was constructed where time- proven designs and modern technology were combined and deployed under new management. Expansion in early 1993 provided an additional 36,000 square feet of manufacturing space. Federal Pacific Today Federal Pacific is a major manufacturer of dry- type transformers which serve the industrial, construction, commercial, mining, OEM and utility markets. The product scope is 50 VA through 10,000 kVA and 120 volts through 25,000 volts. The 600 volt class offering includes industrial control transformers, encapsulated/ compound-filled general purpose and buck- boost transformers, ventilated designs for general purpose applications, electrostatically shielded transformers and a complete line of motor drive isolation transformers. The medium voltage offering includes core and coil transformers, general purpose designs, pad mount transformers, unit substation transformers, vacuum pressure impregnated transformers (VPI), and VPI/epoxy shielded transformers. K-Factor rated transformers are offered for the entire product scope.

This is basically one-half of an AC/DC power supply circuit, consisting of a line power plug, on/off switch, fuse, indicator lamp, and a step-down transformer. The reason this project idea is strongly recommended is that it may serve as the basis for the recommended power supply project in the next course (ELTR120 – Semiconductors 1). If you build the AC section now, you will not have to re-build an enclosure or any of the line-power circuitry later! Note that the first lab (step-down transformer circuit) may serve as a prototype for this project with just a few additional components.

  • Distribution Transformers
    Shoemaker_CH15.qxd 13/07/06 11:43AM Page 15.1 CHAPTER 15 DISTRIBUTION TRANSFORMERS The purpose of a distribution transformer is to reduce the primary voltage of the electric distribution system to the utilization voltage serving the customer. A distribution trans- former is a static device constructed with two or more windings used to transfer alternating- current electric power by electromagnetic induction from one circuit to another at the same frequency but with different values of voltage and current. Figure 15.1 shows distribution transformers in stock at an electric utility company ser- vice building. The distribution transformers available for use for various applications, as shown, include pole-type (Figs. 15.2 and 15.3), pad-mounted (Fig. 15.4), vault or network type (Fig. 15.5), and submersible (Fig. 15.6). The distribution transformer in Fig. 15.2 is self-protected. It is equipped with a lightning arrester, a weak-link or protective-link expulsion-type fuse (installed under oil in the trans- former tank), a secondary circuit breaker, and a warning light. The transformer primary bushing conductor is connected to one phase of the three-phase primary circuit through a partial-range current-limiting fuse. The transformer tank is grounded and connected to the FIGURE 15.1 Electric utility distribution storage yard. Forklift trucks are used to load transformers on line trucks.

Costa, Antonio Carlos M. de Queiroz, Bamidele Adebisi, Vinicius L. R. da Costa, and Moises V. Ribeiro Abstract—The advent of power line communication (PLC) electric power cables. These power cables could be alternating for smart grids, vehicular communications, internet of things current (AC) or direct current (DC) power lines and the signals and data network access has recently gained ample interest in of PLC transceivers are subsequently coupled to them via a industry and academia. Due to the characteristics of electric power grids and regulatory constraints, the effectiveness of coupling circuit. In the case of power lines used to transmit coupling between the power line and PLC transceivers has AC power, the coupling circuit has also to filter out the AC become a very important issue. Coupling devices used to inject or mains signal. On the other hand, the coupling circuit simply extract data communication signals into or from power lines are has to block the DC mains voltage of the DC electric power very important components of a PLC system. There is, however, grids. an obvious gap in the literature for a detailed review of existing PLC couplers. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review During the late 1970s and early 1980s, new investigations of couplers, which are required for narrowband and broadband to characterize electric power grids as a medium for data PLC transceivers. Prevailing issues that protract the design of communication showed a higher potential in the range of couplers and consequently subtended the inventions of different frequencies between 5 kHz and 500 kHz [2].
