Upgrade of EBG transformer for Rarik
November 4, 2020
Upgrade of EBG 130396, 10 MVA transformer for Rarik completed
We received a transformer from Rarik Ólafsvík on the 16th of July 2020. The transformer had come to its years and begun to rustle and show up.
A new height converter was designed for the transformer and built in our workshop. The transformer was hoisted and a paper sample taken. Offload switchers inspected and looked good. Staged picked up and tested.
Finally, the transformer was fully painted and all protective devices replaced. The transformer dates back to 1981 and has been operating for 39 years. Now he should be able to serve Rarik for the next 40 years.
