Fastening off-circuit tap-changer to active part

When fastening the off-circuit tap-changer to the active part, ensure that the
off-circuit tap-changer has the correct installation dimension if it is to be driven
via an insulating drive shaft of the standard length. The installation dimension
varies depending on the off-circuit tap-changer model and is either the distance between the top edge of the mounting flange and center of the top supporting link or the distance between the center of the bottom supporting link
and bottom edge of the step-by-step gear (see table below).

NOTE
Damage to property!
Danger of damage to the off-circuit tap-changer and transformer due to
incorrectly measured attachment points!
Fasten off-circuit tap-changer in transformer in isolating manner.
Measure attachment points according to the loads caused by the mass of
the off-circuit tap-changer and torques when undertaking switch operation.
The mass of the off-circuit tap-changer should be taken from the dimensional drawings in the appendix. The switching torques required should be
taken from the table below.

Connecting off-circuit tap-changer to transformer

winding
NOTE
Mechanical load will damage the off-circuit tap-changer!
Connection leads which place the off-circuit tap-changer under mechanical load will damage the off-circuit tap-changer!
Establish and secure connections with care.
Install the connection leads so that the application of force on the off-circuit
tap-changer is minimal during all operational, testing and malfunction conditions (e. g. short circuit).
Connect connecting leads without warping or deforming.

The cable diameter is 20 mm at current levels of up to 1000 A and 32 mm at

current levels above 1000 A.

NOTE
Damage to off-circuit tap-changer and transformer!
Damage to off-circuit tap-changer and transformer resulting from short
circuit/flashover!
Connect connecting leads to transformer winding such that they do not
protrude by an impermissible distance into the ground insulation clearance.

2.

Connect off-circuit tap-changer's flexible connecting leads with ferrules to

transformer winding following the detailed connection diagram supplied
with the delivery. The ferrules are not included in the scope of supply.

Cables must not be laid inside a circumference of 100 mm around the offcircuit tap-changer's drive shaft because otherwise the insulating drive shaft
cannot connect with the off-circuit tap-changer.
