CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
The single phase high voltage tap changer is used to notch the
control winding on the high voltage side of the transformer up
and down through 32 steps.
The tap changer is directly built on the transformer, the
selectors and circuit breakers together form a constructional
unit.
The circuit breaker is provided with magnetic blowout,
and supported on two insulated columns . It is mounted on the
oil filled selector casing.
Transformer and selector are separated by oil tight seals
so that during overhauls only the oil from the selector casing
need to be drained.
Tap changer is designed for higher service voltage (25 to
30 kV) and for high switching frequencies. This is equipped
with a circulating pump and a filter for the selector oil. This
device is intended to keep the selector oil clean over long
periods of operations by extracting metallic particles, which may
break off from the control gear.
Since two shaft extensions are available at the selector,
the drive can be built on at the right-hand or left-hand end,
depending on the space available.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE OF GR
The moving contact rollers K1 and K2 in the
selector actuate with the current cut off. Before a roller
leaves the fixed contact, the relevant circuit is interrupted
by the associated circuit breaker. The connections of the
tap changer in the high voltage circuit of the transformer
are shown in figure 1.4 and sequence of movements of
the selector and of the circuit breaker contacts is shown
in fig. 1.5.

When changing over, the resistor R1 carries the
current for a short time together with a circulating
current produced by the tapping winding about to be
switched in or out.
The high-value resistor R2 serves as the
connection between equal potentials, which ensures that
the branches of the circuit being interrupted at the given
potential. The making angles of the contact, as the angle
of rotation of the selector drive shaft, must remain within
a tolerance of ± 3°.
While the rollers remain at the segments 1 and 0,
the breaker I close and take over the service current. A
circulating current then flows through the resistor R1
produced by the tapping winding 0-1 until the breaker II
opens. Finally the disconnected contact roller runs off
segment 0. The tap changer is now at step 1.
The critical angles (referred to the drive shaft)
between the switching sequences at the circuit breakers
and in the selector are designated with the letters x and y.
Deviations in accordance with tolerances indicated must
be taken into account. The maximum permissible
rotational speed at the drive shaft can be determined
from the values of these angles (quoted for new contacts)
and form the time taken for the arc to quench during and
interruption. As the arcing tips of the breaker contacts
piece wear the critical angles and thus also the safety
margins increase. The mechanical method for achieving
the intermittent switching movement is shown in fig.1.6.

AIR MOTOR MG-2 WITH CONTROL UNIT
The motor is of the four cylinder-reciprocating
type is used to drive tap changer. A pressure reducing
valve, a three- way cock and a pressure gauge to read
between 0 and 10 kg/cm2 are connected in series with the
motor. It is advisable to couple a two pole auxiliary
switch with this three-way cock so that when the latter is
closed, the control leads are switched off at the same
time. The electrically operated pneumatic control unit is
connected to the air motor by two connections and one
return line. Depending on the pulses received this unit
allows the motor to run in steps or continuously in either
direction.
Facilities are provided for incorporating one or
several drums for control, indicating and interlock
contacts. The air motor and its control unit is virtually
unaffected by temperature changes, moist air, shock and
vibration. The motor is provided with an enclosure to
protect it against dust etc. The air motor and control unit
is shown in figure 1.7 and figure 1.8 respectively.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE OF SMGR
The SMGR is controlled by pneumatically damped
movements, which thus saves wear on the mechanical
components of this equipment. The motor operates at a
service pressure between 2.5 and 3.5 kg/cm2. Function of Air
Motor is shown in figure 1.9. The crankshaft is held in the
tapping positions by two pistons under pressure via two
connecting rods (e.g. I and III). Each switching process takes
place as a result of the venting of one cylinder and the
simultaneous pressurizing of another one. When the tap
changer
“notches up” the cylinder I is vented and II
pressurized. When the tap changer “notches down” the same
process is repeated in cylinders III and IV.

Cyclic distribution (determined by control pulses) over the
four cylinders enables any sequences of switching steps in
either direction. The notching holds the motor at the
tapings when no air pressure is available; this also ensures
that the crankshaft stops in the correct position. Function of
control unit is shown in figure 1.10.
The control unit is designed so that each step of the
driven unit corresponds to two switching steps of 90° each
at the crankshaft. The control pulses to the cylinders are
initiated by the three way valves, which in turn are operated
by camshaft. The camshaft is coupled to the crankshaft
through gearing
(ratio
1:1). The intermediate planetary
gearing can reset the position of the camshaft with respect
to the crankshaft so that the valve positions are changed
over for running in notching up or down. The motor rotates
in the clockwise or counter clockwise direction. External
control commands act upon the solenoid valves and are
transmitted to the control cylinder as pressure pulses. This
causes the lever arm with the toothed segment to rotate
about the pivot either towards the right (notching up) or to
the left
(notching down). The toothed segment engages
with the pinion, which carries the axis of the planet wheel.
When the annulus is stationary, movement of the planet
wheel causes the camshaft to rotate in one or the other
direction by 75° (lead angle). This involves a displacement
relative to the crankshaft, which is maintained as long as
the control command persists. Short control commands are
continued mechanically so that the motor can complete one
entire tap change. The guide pin on the swung out control
lever then runs over a cam on the gearwheel. A mechanical
interlock prevents overrunning the limit position when the
operating mechanism is actuated by hand.

REPAIRING/ OVERHAULING OF "GR"
2.2.1
Removal of Contact Arm
Lift contact rollers, place hexagonal key and turn
through 90°.
Remove bolts at bushing and circlip, lift out carrier
plate contact rings.
Remove circlip and distance tube. Lift out contact
arm with stepping wheel.
2.2.2
Removal of Roller Contacts
Turn roller-lifting gear at bolt to position "On"
with key. Undo lacing and push out insulated tube.
Withdraw outer contact-roller casing (hold roller with
thumb), whereupon contact roller with bearings, roller
guide and pressure springs are now free to drop out.
Remove bolts and push out insulated tube to withdraw
inner contact rollers with contact housing. The fixed and
moving insulation in the selector can now be cleaned.
25
2.2.2.1 Check for wear
If the tracks on the segments and rails are deeper
than 0.5mm, these parts have to be renewed. The contact
rollers are allowed to wear to a minimum diameter of 17
mm; contact rollers with smaller diameters have to be
changed. When the rollers run correctly, the contact
surface on the segments, rings and contact rollers should
be polished bright.
Check roller guide and bearing for wear renew as
necessary. The roller guide must move freely in the
housing.
2.2.2.2 Refitting contact arm
Before fitting the complete roller housing on the
table plate, ensure that rollers turn easily under pressure
of spring during backward and forward movements. For
the lacing, use good quality hemp string (1 to 2 mm
thick). Before fitting the complete contact arm with
stepping wheel, lift rollers when fitted set "0" position
with checking pin.
2.2.3
Removal and dismantling of gearing
Remove 3 bolts and withdraw gearing plate with
bearing journal. Do not remove 6 bolts since will this
release oil from transformer.
Remove threaded pin, circlip and pull out distance
tube.
Make a note of the number at shims position during
removal of drive wheel so that the original settings
can be retained during reassembly.
26
The actuating pins are hardened (HRc 58 ± 4).
Renew lantern gear pinion when rollers are
considerably worn. Minimum permissible diameter
15.5 mm. When refitting the reassembled gearing the
wheels should be set to a tapping position with the
aid of the checking pin.
2.2.4 Work on the Selector, which involves draining of
Transformer
Remove contact pins and renew gaskets.
Open up side possibly also base covers.
Loosen connecting terminal.
Remove special nut in the contact plate (front) and
withdraw pin in direction of terminal.
Hold connecting terminal with spanner during
loosening or tightening of clamping nuts.
2.2.4.1 Removal of Bearing Flange
Remove the horizontal shaft first. Remove driving
mechanism.
Expose shaft extension; i.e. remove gear wheel and
setting device.
Remove circlips on both sides.
Unhold journal bearing and withdraw.
Pull out shaft the right. Remove bolts at bearing
flange and withdraw this flange together with bevel
wheel and coupling tube.
27
2.2.4.2 Dismantling of Bearing Flange
Knock out securing pin, pull out coupling pins and
coupling tube. Release tab washers and withdraw
bevel gear with shaft and ball bearings.
Note number of shims. These shims must be
positioned before refitting of ball bearings.
During removal and refitting of coupling shaft ensure
that the feather edge of the sealing ring is not
damaged.

2.2.6
Mounting Tap Changer on the intermediate reservoir
This is sealed from the transformer with an
insulated plate, the bushings having to be oil tight as
well. The reservoir is filled through a connecting pipe to
the transformer, in which a stopcock has to be fitted,
which can be closed when draining the intermediate
reservoir. A vent valve is provided at the highest point of
the reservoir, which remains open during filling until the
oil overflows. The reservoir can be emptied through a
drain cock.
The electrical leads are equipped with plugs,
which can easily be connected with the terminal pins on
the selector.
2.2.6.1 Procedure
Remove base and side covers also cover plate on
selector frame.
Lightly and uniformly coat gasket between selector
and transformer with a paste prepared from talcum
powder and a little vaseline to prevent the gasket
sticking to the metallic parts.
34
Tighten nuts in the selector frame uniformly.
At least two, preferably four spring washers should
be placed under the nuts to avoid leakage.
The plugs of the connecting leads are now fitted in a
straight line to the contact pins of the selector. Push
home connects terminals as far as body of plug. Hold
with open-ended spanner and tighten clamping nuts.
First make connections for the inner circle and check
them. Fit all covers.
After filling transformer and intermediate reservoir,
check for leaks.
2.2.6.2 Removal of Drive
A 4-cylinder MG 2-air motor provides the drive
power. If for some reason the drive has to be removed,
the following points should be borne in mind.
Removal and refitting of the drive should only be
attempted, when both tap changer and drive are in
the “0” position.
If the front part of this cowling is removed the motor
can be suspended from the eyebolts.
The drive can be withdrawn complete with the
support.
Remove bolts. When secure with two securing pins
(diameter 8 and 5 mm, length 28 mm), ensure red
marking at bevel wheels is lined up.
Separate drive from support (latter remains attached
to rear side of cowling on tap changer).
35
Disconnect air pipe remove nuts and lift off motor.
When refitting, motor is placed on the two guide
wedges on support.
Before the nuts are tightened the motor can then be
moved in a horizontal direction so that the
engagement of the teeth of the bevel wheel can be
accurately set.
The control connections can be brought to the drive
with the aid of plugs or through the stuffing glands.
In the former case the plug is withdrawn as the drive
is removed and the airline unscrewed at the outer
union threads.
If the lines enter through stuffing glands, they have
to be disconnected at the inner terminals (cam-type
switches and coils). The airline should be
disconnected and the connecting plate removed from
the cowling. These operations are also to be carried
out if the entire tap changer is removed complete
with drive.
Manual operating mechanisms as emergency devices
can be coupled to the free shaft extension or at
various points of the compressed air operating
mechanism.
36
2.2.7
Taking into Service
Remove locking device or slide along shaft.
Fill selector housing with clean transformer oil
(about 75 litres at 20°C)
Oil level gauge is provided with a scale, which allows
for changes in temperature. The electrical breakdown
strength of oil should attain at least 50 kV/cm for one
minute between 13mm dia. spheres, distance 2.5 mm.
Check selector housing and fittings for leaks
If necessary retighten nuts and bolts. Repeat this
check after commissioning.
Check operation of control system and drive.
Before voltage is applied to the tap changer, the
following checks should be carried out:
The arc chambers must be in position on the
circuit breakers and the locking mechanism
engages.
The connections between the circuit breakers and
the diverted resistor must be correctly made and
proof against failure. If necessary retighten
terminal bolts.
Check the resistor R1 (diverted resistor) for faults
which may be the result of damage during
transport. During the first runs check should also
be undertaken to ensure that the resistor is not
being subjected to excessive vibration.
37
After filling with oil the tap changer should be
operated over the entire range of steps from 0 to
32 and back before carrying out the voltage
check; this ensures that air bubbles which may be
adhering to parts of the unit rise to the surfaces.
A check under voltage is not to be attempting
earlier than ½ hour after filling of the selector
with oil.

IA/IB/IC/ schedules.
5.
Air leakage test of SMGR should be performed
in every schedule. The leakage should not be
more than 10% in 10 minutes.
6.
Free movement of valve plunger should be
ensured in every AOH. The valve plunger should
be replaced in every POH.
7.
Gap between adjustable valve screw and bolt
head should be maintained between
0.4 to
0.7mm. This gap should be checked during every
IA/IB/IC schedule.
8.
Plunger should move free in the bearing pin with
strap part no. 5301. The play between spacer and
shim should not be more than 0.2mm.
9.
The setting of control block should be ensured.
57
10.
Setting of control cylinder should be done as per
instructions of SWT 5013.
11.
Only Bahrain MP-2 or servogem-2 grease should
by used for lubrication of cylinder. Greasing
should be done in every IC schedule.
12.
After changing of 'U' section ring. The plunger
gap should be checked and it should be
maintained within 0.4 to 0.7 mm.
13.
Setting of pressure reducing valve in the control
panel should be checked during every IA/IB/IC
schedules.
14.
