The 250kVA oil immersed transformer is a three-phase, oil immersed, self-cooling power distribution transformer. The oil filled transformer, rated capacity of 250kVA, is widely used in urban and rural power grids, industrial and mining enterprises, residential communities, commercial complexes and new energy projects, to safely and efficiently step down high voltage power for end-use consumption, with a high voltage side of 10kV, a low voltage side of 0.4kV.
The product has the structure of fully sealed corrugated oil tank, uses high quality cold rolled silicon steel sheet core and high strength insulated windings. These features are low losses, low noise, maintenance-free operation and high reliability. Its overall performance conforms to the requirements of GB 1094 and GB / T 6451 series standards, and it can also be manufactured for export according to the IEC 60076 standards.

It is located in the center of the active part and is made of stacked or wound cold-rolled grain-oriented silicon steel sheets to form a closed magnetic circuit. Joints are mitered at 45° with clamps and a single point ground to minimize no-load losses and noise, and for safety reasons.
The winding, inner or outer, closest to the core limbs. Due to the high current on the 0.4 kV side, the windings are usually of the foil type (copper or aluminium). The axial distribution of ampere turns is uniform. The short circuit withstand capability is high.
The outer winding which is placed concentrically with the LV winding. The 10 kV side is a multilayer cylinder construction with insulation and oil ducts in between the layers. It is separated from the LV winding by composite oil-paper main insulation.
Fills the tank and immerses the active part. It has three functions: insulation (increasing the dielectric strength between windings and to ground), heat dissipation (removing heat to the tank walls by natural convection), and protection against moisture (isolating air to slow down aging of the insulation).
It is the transformer enclosure and the radiator also. The tank walls are corrugated. The corrugated panels are completely sealed so that they can elastically compensate the volume changes of the oil due to temperature variations. The oil does not touch the outside air and is therefore maintenance-free.
This is mounted on the tank cover and provides safe termination of the leads of the HV winding out of the tank. It provides 10 kV insulation to ground and mechanical support for cable or busbar connections.
It is mounted on the other side of the tank cover and brings out the three phase and neutral leads for the 0.4 kV side. It does the same insulation and lead out functions as the HV bushing but is smaller in size.
Off-circuit type, mounted on the tank cover operating mechanism and connected to the HV winding taps. It has a normal ±2×2.5% tap range and is manually set to the local voltage levels while de-energized.
Every transformer is tested before shipment according to applicable standards and customer requirements — from the first batch of raw material to the final routine test on the factory floor.
Transformer quality begins with the materials we bring in. Every batch of incoming material is inspected against approved specifications before production, with supplier qualification and traceability records maintained for each shipment.
Progress tests are conducted at key stages of the manufacturing process to verify that every 250kVA three-phase oil-immersed transformer meets design and quality requirements before final assembly.
Before leaving the factory, each transformer undergoes routine testing — conducted in accordance with GB 1094 / IEC 60076 standards — covering key parameters such as insulation resistance, winding DC resistance, voltage ratio and vector group, no-load loss and current, load loss and short-circuit impedance, and applied voltage withstand.
Upon successful completion of all tests, the unit is shipped with a factory test report and a certificate of conformity, ensuring that every delivered product meets its rated performance and safety specifications.
250kVA Oil Immersed Transformers are available with a range of configurable options to meet different electrical and environmental requirements. Customers can select the appropriate insulating medium, voltage configuration, protection devices and accessories according to their specific project conditions.
For projects with higher environmental and fire-safety requirements, ester-based insulating fluids such as FR3 can be selected as an alternative to conventional mineral oil. These fluids offer a higher fire point and good biodegradability, making them suitable for applications where environmental protection and installation safety are important considerations.
The transformer can also be equipped with suitable voltage regulation and protection solutions, including load switching devices, surge protection, fuses and temperature monitoring components. These options allow the transformer to be configured for different grid conditions, load characteristics and protection requirements.
From utility distribution and commercial facilities to industrial and renewable energy projects, flexible transformer configurations help customers achieve the required balance of electrical performance, operational safety and environmental compliance.

The essential parameters for a quote or order:
A distribution transformer is the final voltage-conversion device between the utility distribution network and the end user. It steps down medium distribution voltage to the low voltage used by homes, businesses and industrial equipment (e.g. 120/240 V, 480 V, 600 V).
