Power Transformer Design concepts with key concepts related to the Designing of a Power Transformer

This course touches the key concepts related to the Design process of a Power Transformer :


  • Basics, Terminologies & Formulae used during Design

  • Core & Coils & Tap Changers concepts

  • Safe Electrical Gaps

  • Percentage Impedance Calculations with Electrical Losses

  • Cooling

  • Impulse Voltages & Short Circuit Forces

This course is very useful  for Design Engineers, Trainee Engineers who are working in Transformer Industries & Utilities. Also, this course is very beneficial for those who are working as Production, Test Engineers & Inspecting Authorities to help them perform their routine job satisfactorily.

Designing, Selection of Core - Grade Type, Winding, Tap Changers, Cooling, Tank is a lengthy & tricky process & needs deep understanding and experience.

In order to cover this lengthy course, it has been subdivided into Nine sections.

Course once finished successfully will empower you to answers many transformer design related questions in addition to many others. A sample list of such questions are as below:


  • What is the status of Power, Voltage, Current & Frequency during Transformer operations ?

  • How To define Asymmetrical - Short Circuit Current?

  • Why there is a need of Five Limbed Core Constructions?

  • Why Ducts are not provided in Spiral winding ?

  • What is Electrical Discharge ?

  • Why Tap Changer is required in a Power Transformer?

  • What is Basic Formula for calculation of Percentage Voltage Impedance ?

  • What is effect of Core Diameter on No load Losses?

  • What is the use of a Bell Type Tank in a Power Transformer?

  • Define Temperature Gradient?

  • What is difference between Overvoltage at Rated Frequency & Impulse Voltages, appear on a Power Transformer ?

Many More

The optimum pace of these lectures along with practice quiz will help you understand and use these concepts in your day to day job. Additionally feel free to reach the Course Instructor in case of any query or clarifications encountered during the course.

All the Best & Happy Learning
