First Edition Standard Published of IEC/IEEE 60076-57-129 for Power Transformers for use in HVDC Applications

Power Line TransformerThe International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in cooperation with the Transformers Committee of the IEEE Power & Energy Society has released IEC/IEEE 60076-57-129:2017 This first edition standard applies to power transformers for HVDC applications; it cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 61378-2. 

Description:

IEC/IEEE 60076-57-129:2017(E) specifies requirements of liquid-immersed three-phase and single-phase converter transformers for use in high voltage direct current (HVDC) power transmission systems including back-to-back applications. It applies to transformers having two, three or multiple windings.

A Dash of Maxwell’s: A Maxwell’s Equations Primer – Part Two

Maxwell’s Equations are eloquently simple yet excruciatingly complex. Their first statement by James Clerk Maxwell in 1864 heralded the beginning of the age of radio and, one could argue, the age of modern electronics.

This document does not apply to:
– converter transformers for industrial applications (see IEC 61378-1 or IEEE C57.18.10);
– converter transformers for traction applications (see IEC 60310).

This publication cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 61378-2 published in 2001 and IEEE Std C57.129™ published in 2007.”
