At the beginning of selecting transformer overcurrent protection and conductors are fundamental parameters that you need to gather and calculate. This portion of curriculum will walk the student through these details.
Selecting the transformer primary overcurrent protective device
This portion of the curriculum will leverage all that the student has learned thus far and determine the maximum size primary OCPD and provide guidance on typical OCPD size selection.
Selecting the transformer secondary overcurrent protective device
The transformer secondary overcurrent protective device is selected in this portion of the curriculum with the guidance from the code and practical application practices.
Selecting transformer conductors (Primary and Secondary)
This is the final step in transformer applications. Once the primary and secondary conductors are selected, the student will learn to determine the proper conductors for both primary and secondary of the case study transformers.
Icing on the cake is this session which helps the student understand how to calculate the maximum available fault current that could be expected on the secondary of a transformer.
You have reached the end of the program. Here we will summarize what we’ve learned and capture all that the student will need to remember as you navigate the application of transformers and their protection.
