Investigation of factors influencing the operational characteristics of traction transformers

Abstract

This article presents the results of visual inspections and a brief statistical analysis of the data obtained in order to identify the observed defects in traction transformers of ODTsE 5000 / 25 B and OTsR 5600/25 types in operation in the railway system. The analysis revealed that the main parameters that determine the operational characteristics of traction transformers are windings and insulation. Recommendations for the prevention of faults in traction transformers and increase their service life have been developed.
