Abstract

This paper describes the symptoms with the fault causes of pole transformers analyzed by Korea Electric Power Corporation(KEPCO) branch offices' request in 2001, and ultimately aims to devise proper countermeasures against the faults. The fault causes are generally divided into problems in manufacturing, mounting and operating. The pole transformers encounter the fault with unique aging mechanisms. To verify the mechanisms with the faults and to devise proper countermeasures, a flowchart for analyzing the fault causes is proposed, by which the fault causes of the pole transformers can be analyzed more exactly.
