Transformer Operational Principles , Selection & Troubleshooting

This Gulf Rowad Electrical Engineering training will ensure that participants will receive thorough training on the subjects covered by the seminar outline, each seminar participant will receive a copy of the comprehensive seminar notes. The presenter will outline and discuss the topics using computer displays, videos, and PowerPoint presentations.

The seminar is designed to have an interactive format to maximize delegate participation. Questions and answers are encouraged throughout and at the daily sessions. Needs-Based case-studies and examples will be discussed in problem-solving workshop sessions. This allows participants to discuss with other delegates and the presenter their specific problems and appropriate solutions.

By the end of this Gulf Rowad training course, participants will learn to:

• Describe the various classifications and types of transformer
• Appreciate the importance of transformer maintenance
• Reduction of carbon footprint by installing new generation power transformers
• Classify the transformer cooling methods
• Recognise the merits of transformer designs

The technicians and maintenance staff will be able to comprehend the types, construction, operations, the function of transformers. This will enable them to carry out effective maintenance activities.

This Gulf Rowad training course is suitable for a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

• Electrical Engineers
• Maintenance Technicians
• Electrical Supervisors
• Engineering Professionals
• Managers of the electrical engineering department

Organisational Impact

Upon completion of the Gulf Rowad course, the organizational impact would be:

• Technical training and up-skilling to improve and realise the full potential of a competent workforce
• Productivity increase through minimisation of project time acceptance / design and testing
• Identification of opportunities for improvements due to a deep understanding of the presented state-of-the-art maintenance technologies
• Networking of personnel with technology leaders and other engineers
• Attitude change of workforce, as continuous follow up of new technologies, and they're up to taking could otherwise create a workforce with high resistance to change due to lack of understanding
• Ensure safety practices adhere when carrying out electrical installation activities

Personal Impact

On successful completion of this Gulf Rowad training seminar, delegate will be able to understand:

• Understand the principles of operation and construction of the various types of transformer
• Identify the different components in the transformers
• Appreciate the testing and maintenance procedures for transformers
• Be familiar with the construction of the transformer, transformer winding connections, and cooling systems
• Recognize the effects of transformer off-load and on-load tap changers
• Comprehend site acceptance tests for newly installed transformers
