TAPCHANGER
AT Tapchanger
The ‘AT’ range of single-phase compartment units with
high-speed resistor transition is designed for three-phase
systems with voltages of 44kV and 66kV line end or 132kV
neutral end and nominal rated current of 300A.
A maximum of 17 tapping steps (18 positions) is possible
for linear regulation and 32 steps (33 positions) for
reversing or coarse/fine regulation.
The ‘AT’ tapchanger is designed such that power flow can
be handled in either direction at full-rated current.
The ‘AT’ is an “out-of-tank” flange-mounted tapchanger
where the oil in the switch compartment is kept separate
at all times from the oil in the main transformer.

AE Tapchanger
The ‘AE’ series on-load tapchanger’s are the results of the
successful type ‘AT’ range of designs. The ‘AE’ uses many
common parts from the ‘AT’ including the complete drive
mechanism. This range has a maximum of 17 tapping
steps (18 positions) is possible for linear regulation and 32
steps (33 positions) for reverse or course/fine regulation.
The equipment may be used to regulate three-phase
transformers designed for system voltages of 33kV and
66kV at any position in the winding. The ’AE’ may also
operate on transformers designed for 132kV earthed
neutral three-phase systems regulating at the neutral end
of the winding. The maximum current rating is 500A, with
overload capability in accordance with IEC 60354 and IEC
60076-7.
