    • Pipe connection Q includes a sealed cover; it is interchangeable with connection R for tap-change supervisory device cables.
    • Pipe connection S features a vent screw and facilitates draining oil when connected to a transformer drain valve.
    • Pipe connection E2 connects to the oil tank beneath the tap-changer head and can link to a collective pipe for the Buchholz relay.
    • Caution is required to prevent explosions from explosive gases in the oil compartment and surrounding areas.

    Commissioning the Transformer

    • Unsuitable insulating fluids can damage the on-load tap-changer; only approved fluids should be used.
    • Check if the on-load tap-changer head cover accommodates a pressure relief device; it must be installed to prevent damage.

    Fault Elimination Procedures

    • Tripping of protective relays and pressure devices indicates potential equipment issues requiring immediate inspection.
    • Monitor conditions, load status, and any operational changes at the time of tripping to diagnose causes.
    • Re-commissioning involves checking the protective relay and ensuring the transformer is ready for operation.
    • If pressure monitoring devices trip, assess the system for damage and contact service for thorough checks before reuse.

    Safety Warnings

    • Underestimating tests on the on-load tap-changer can cause severe injury or death; professional advice is critical after tripping events.
    • Ensure no physical or operational damage to the transformer and on-load tap-changer before restarting operations.

    Safety Markings

    • Protective conductor connection, warning of dangerous electrical voltage, and the importance of reading the documentation for safety compliance.

    Pressure Monitoring Device DW

    • The DW 2000 device safeguards the on-load tap-changer against impermissible pressure increases.
    • Located externally on the on-load tap-changer, it activates upon detecting static and dynamic pressures in the oil compartment.
    • Utilizes a corrugated tube and spring mechanism linked to a snap-action switch sensor.
    • A pressure increase triggers the sensor to switch to the OFF position, de-energizing the transformer.

    Tripping Mechanism

    • The pressure monitoring device is factory-set, preventing accidental changes to the tripping pressure.
    • Responds to rapid pressure increases more quickly than the standard protective relay of the MR protection system.

    Protective Relay (RS 2004) Inspection

    • Verify functionality before transformer commissioning by checking the flap valve position and ensuring the transformer is grounded.
    • Test procedure includes pressing the OFF button and checking that the circuit breaker remains open for active protection validation.

    Pressure Monitoring Device Testing

    • Proper grounding and de-energization are essential before sensor activation to confirm the OFF position.
    • Follow a step-by-step testing process to ensure the sensor functions correctly before commissioning the transformer.

    Transformer Commissioning

    • Ensure the oil compartment is fully filled and all stop-cocks are open.
    • Signaling contact for low insulating fluid level must be integrated into the circuit breaker's tripping circuit.
    • Caution against inrush current exceeding rated current during tap-change operations.

    Operating the Motor-Drive Unit

    • Unauthorized use of the hand crank poses severe explosion risks; it requires disconnecting the transformer first.
    • Hand crank operation is primarily for installation and maintenance, not normal operation.

    Tap-Change Operation with Hand Crank

    • Precise steps include switching off the motor protective switch and fully turning the hand crank.
    • Ensure pointer returns to the mid-position on the tap-change indicator before concluding the operation.

    Fault Elimination Precautions

    • Potential explosive hazards exist under the on-load tap-changer cover; ensure absence of ignition sources.
    • Auxiliary circuits must be de-energized before cover removal to prevent sparks or deflagration.
    • Inspect the on-load tap-changer and transformer if protective devices trip to avoid further damage.
