Introduction
It was established in 1956 in technical collaboration with M/s AEG of Germany. In October 1978, the company was taken over by Saigol Group of Companies. At that juncture, the company was only manufacturing transformers and switchgears. With the Saigols in management, PEL started expanding its product range by entering into Air Conditioner manufacturing. PEL has two divisions of its business. 1. Appliances Division 2. Power Division

Appliances Division
PEL s Appliances Division is the flag carrier of the Saigol Group. Appliances Division includes the products; Air Conditioner, Refrigerator, Washing Machine, Water Dispenser and Microwave Oven. Today, PEL has become a household name. Its products are not only in great demand in the local market but the Company has also started exporting its appliances to foreign markets.

Power Division
PEL Power Division is one of the major electrical equipment suppliers to WAPDA & KESC. Since 1956 the company manufactures transformers, energy meters, switchgears, kiosks, compact stations and shunt capacitor banks. PEL also has had the privilege of getting its equipment approved and certified from well-reputed international consultants.

ISO 9001 CERTIFICATION:


PEL was 16th Company in Pakistan that got ISO 9001 Certification in 1997, since then PEL Management is applying this International Standard Practices for Effectively Managing Quality of Products and Services that Company Offers.

Transformer
A transformer makes use of Faraday's law and the ferromagnetic properties of an iron core to efficiently raise or lower AC voltages. It of course cannot increase power so that if the voltage is raised, the current is proportionally lowered and vice versa.

Transformer figures are shown below in which its parts are labeled.

PEL made distribution transformer s range includes oil immersed core type transformers, Dry type (VP impregnated) transformers and autotransformers. These transformers are tailor made for various ratings. IEC or national standards are followed. PEL offer distribution transformers voltage up to 33 kV and ratings up to 30 MVA. PEL offers transformer tanks with corrugated walls, detachable radiators and tubular arrangement. The corrugated tanks have a better cooling efficiency, since the fins are expandable. Tanks are hermetically sealed where possible. In order to meet sophisticated requirements of customers PEL has also started manufacturing transformers with foil winding. Foil winding efficiently uses space which results in size reduction. It has better heat dissipation and also increases potential to withstand short circuit current. PEL transformers are available for various applications:

31 July to 6 August
Internship Report has been written in such an order that first I will explain my experience and learning in Design Section, Production Department, I&QC department and finally in the maintenance department.

Design Department
The Design department is the most important department of the Transformer division. Because the basis of any transformer is laid here. It is the starting step in the production of any type of transformer. This department can be subdivided into two main categories:  Electrical Design  Mechanical Design When we first came to this department, we were first briefed about the working of the department by Mr. Amir Sharif (representing the electrical section) and Mr. (representing the Mechanical section).

Working Procedure of the Design Department


Whenever any client wants to purchase any transformer, it sends its required specifications to the Marketing department of PEL. This is called Enquiry. The marketing department then sends this enquiry to the design department. The design department performs three main tasks:  Estimation of the Cost  Dimensional Sketch  Datasheet

Department of Electrical Engineering, PU, LHR

These three things are then sent to the marketing department, which is the feedback to the client s enquiry. If the client feels satisfied with these things, then it gives the order to the marketing department. The marketing department then sends the Sales Advice to the design section, which mainly defines the number of transformers to be produced and the duration of the supply. Once the ordered is confirmed, then the design department starts its working in full swing. The work is then divided into two subsections; electrical team performs the electrical design, whereas the mechanical team is mainly concerned with mechanical design. The electrical design team is mainly involved in the designing of the Core, LT and HT windings. The mechanical design team works on the layout, body of the transformer. The design is made on Pro-E and AutoCad software. The electrical design generally works with a faster pace, because it has to inform the Material Planning Control section that this much material is required for the production. Same is the case with the mechanical team, but since core and winding are to produce first, so there production starts a bit earlier. Most of us were doing electrical engineering and but there was a mechanical engineering student as a internee with us , so we were told about the electrical part and little about mechanical as well. The design and its calculations are mainly done via software. Once a design is finalized and is according to the requirements of the client, a TR document is prepared that defines each and everything regarding the design.

TR File:
TR file describes the production department that what is actually being required by the customer and how it us to be achieved. The production is then done keeping in view the TR file. Following are the few important things: TR no, Fb no, KVA rating, connection type(vector group), cooling mechanism, design no, taps, losses quoted and calculated, temperature rise, the cross sections of HV and LV windings, the dimensions (cross section area, height, width, steps etc) of core, type of HV and LV winding, total no. of layers in HV and LV, turns in each winding, the inner and outer diameter of HV and LV, the nature of conductor used in winding, the level and layers of insulation, the number of thermo ducts, the clearance distances, the end collar dimension, the total weight of HV and LV

Manufacturing Department
It is the responsibility of the manufacturing department to manufacture different components of transformer and then assemble them to make a transformer. Production department has following sections:     Winding Section Core Section Tank Section Assembly Section

How manufacturing department starts manufacturing? First, customer gives order to the marketing and sales department. Marketing and sales department makes annual sales plan for WAPDA. Marketing and sales department sends this order to Production planning and control department which makes a master production plan (Month wise). This plan is sent to Material planning section which makes Material requirement plan or Bill of material according to the master production plan. This plan is sent to the purchase department which buys material according to this plan. Material is received in store where quality inspectors from I&QC department check its quality than this material is sent to manufacturing department where manufacturing of transformer starts.

Production planning and control department receives order from marketing and sales department. For WAPDA orders there is an annual sales report which is sent to the production planning and control while for private orders are received from time to time and there is no annual sales report for these orders. Production planning and control makes the master production plan accordingly to the orders sent by marketing and sales department. Master production plan is month wise and it can be changed. After making the master production plan PPC makes a weekly production plan which is sent to sectional in charges.PPC also makes the daily production plan. PPC apart from making the master production plan and weekly production plan it monitors the production to ensure that the production is running accordingly to the plan.

Material Planning Section:


Material planning section is responsible for the procurement of material and it ensures that material arrives timely for the production. Material can be purchased from foreign companies and also from the local companies. In local procurement material can be purchased in less than a month so it is done once a month. In foreign procurement more time is required because it takes more time for the arrival of material from foreign countries by ships so foreign procurement is done after every three months. In foreign procurement bank opens the letter of credit or LC, it pays the foreign company for the material and the stock is pledged with the bank and when company needs the material for production it pays the bank and material is given to the company for the production. After the procurement of the material, material planning section follows the material to ensure that it arrives on time for production.

 Tests on Different Materials to Check there Quality y Bird Protection Test This test is used to check the thickness of paint so that cover plate will not short. In this test 8kv voltage is applied to the cover plate for 1 minute if cover plate does not stand it for I minute than it is rejected. Micron Meter Micron meter is also used to check the thickness of paint on cover plate. The reading should be greater than .25mm according to IEC recommendations. Mandrill Test This test is used to check the quality of enamel on enamel copper wire. For mandrill test all sizes of enamel copper wire will be wound over its own diameter for at least 8 to 10 turns and will be checked for zero cracks. Heat Shock Test This test is used to check the quality of enamel on enamel copper wire. The sample prepared for the mandrill test is placed in electric oven at temperature 155 Co to 166 Co for hour and again mandrill test will be performed for test compliance. y Break Down Test The specimen of wire approximately 600mm is doubled and twisted for a distance of 125mm.The tension of wire pair while being twisted and a number of twists will be as per specification (IEC-60317 and BS-4516).Enamel is removed from the wire at one pair of ends and test voltage is applied between the conductors through high port test set as per specification (IEC-60317). Note the reading where break down has occurred.

y Peel Off Test


This test is applicable to sizes over 1.0mm. A sample of the wire of about 500mm length is placed in tester consisting of two fixing devices 500mm apart on the same axis. One of these is able to rotate. Specific weight is attached on the fix side of device as mentioned in specification by IEC-60317. By means of a scraper on opposite sides of wire.

b) Viscosity Viscosity meter is used for this test. Reading is taken at two different temperatures. AT 20 Co reading should be less than 40mm2/sec and at 40 Co reading should be less than 12mm2/sec as per IEC-296 and IEC-60296 specifications. c) Specific Gravity Specific gravity meter is used for this test. Reading is taken at -30 Co. Before use specific gravity of oil should be less than .895 g/mil. After use reading should be less than .895 g/mil as per IEC-269 and IEC-60296 recommendations. d) Flash Point The point at which the oil catches fire is known as flash point. Flash point of transformer oil should be greater than 140 Co as per new recommendation of IEC in IEC-60296. e) Dielectric Strength Test Dielectric strength tester is used for this test. Oil is filled in a box which has electrodes which are 2.5mm apart. Voltage is applied to the box which increases at the rate of 2kv per sec. Reading is taken at point where breakdown has occurred. Seven readings are taken and their arithmetic mean is the breakdown voltage. Oil which is purchased should have dielectric strength greater than 30kv. When oil is stored and all the moisture and impurities are removed than its strength should be greater than 70kv. For the oil which is used reading should not be less than 55kv. All these values are according to the recommendations of IEC mentioned in IEC-60296. f) Acidity Value Acidity value meter is used for this test. For unused oil reading of meter should be less than .03 mg KOH/g and for used oil it should not be less than .01 mg KOH/g. Readings are according to recommendations of IEC given in IEC-60296. g) Pour Point The point at which oil freezes is known as pour point. Oil should not freeze before -30 Co to pass this test.

3. Testing
It is the responsibility of the testing section that the transformer does not fail in real conditions. To check that it will not fail in real environment a number of tests are done on the transformer before it is ready to dispatch. There are three types of tests which are done on a transformer. i. Routine Tests ii. Type Tests iii. Special Test a) Routine Tests Tests which are performed on each and every transformer are called routine tests. Every transformer must pass these tests before dispatch. b) Type Tests Tests which are done on samples taken from a whole lot are called type tests. c) Special Tests Tests which are done occasionally on the requirement of customer are called special tests. d) Routine Tests: There are eight routine tests done in testing section. I. II. III. IV. V. VI. VII. VIII. Transformer Turns Ratio Test (TTR Test) Winding Resistance Test Insulation Resistance Test (Meager Test) Induced Voltage Test High Voltage Test (Separate source voltage) No Load Losses (Open circuit test) On Load Losses (Short circuit test) Dielectric Tests

1. Transformer Turn Ratio: (TTR Test) Transformer turn ratio test is done twice on a transformer. Once before the connection and once after the connection. Transformer turn ratio meter is used for this test. Turn ratio should be as defined in Tr. Design to pass the test. 2. Winding Resistance This test is used to check the phase to phase and phase to neutral resistance of transformer. Phase to Phase resistance should be in ohms ( ) and phase to neutral resistance should be in milliohms ( ). 3. Insulation Resistance Test: (Meager test) This test is used to check insulation between H.V L.V H.V Ground Ground L.V

4. Induced Over Voltage Test This test is used to check the winding insulation. In this test voltage is applied on the L.V side because it is easy to provide. On the L.V side twice the rated voltage at four times the normal frequency is applied. Test time should be greater than 15 seconds and can be found using the formula Time = Rated frequency * 120 Test frequency 5. High Voltage Test: (Separate source voltage) This test is used to check whether winding is insulated from other parts of transformer or not. First, all the L.V terminals and body of transformer are earthed. Than 33kv voltage is applied on the H.V side. IT is checked whether the transformer will stand this voltage for 1 minute or not.

6. No Load Losses: (Open circuit test) In this test H.V side is kept open and voltage is applied on the L.V side. Than V, I, PF and other quantities are measured. 7. Load Losses: (Short circuit test) In this test L.V side is short and current is passed through the L.V side. Than V, I, PF and other quantities are measured. 8. Dielectric Test This test is done in the oil testing laboratory and break down voltage should be less than mentioned in the IEC-60296.

Maintenance Department
Maintenance Department is the mother of all departments as it look to every department, and is being called by every department in case of need. Maintenance department has to maintain every thing of the factory with and without the call of the department. Department in which the problem arises send a request for their problem to maintenance department. Maintenance department generates a work order towards for the solution of their problem. After the matter is solved (repair) maintenance department send a feedback report to the concerned department to inquire their satisfactory. If the department is satisfied then the work order is closed. This all communication is done electronically by software developed by PEL known as MMS. Maintenance Monitoring System(MMS)  Receives the maintenance request.  Generates the work order.  Updates the status.  Feedback. There are two types of Maintenances: Preventive Maintenance is a precautionary maintenance to avoid certain breakdowns. This may include service, tuning, oil checking etc of the machines frequently. Breakdown Maintenance is special maintenance or repair in case any machine certainly stops working and is on request.
