Tap-changers -- Part 1: Performance requirements and test methods

Applies to on-load tap-changers of both resistor and reactor types, off-circuit tap-changers, and their motor drive mechanisms. Applies mainly to tap-changers immersed in transformer oil according to EN 60296 but may also be used for tap-changers with gas insulation or immersed in other insulating liquids.

Changeurs de prises -- Partie 1: Prescriptions de performances et méthodes d'essai

S'applique aux changeurs de prises en charge aussi bien de type à résistance qu'à bobine d'inductance, aux changeurs de prises hors circuit et à leurs mécanismes d'entraînement à moteur. S'applique essentiellement aux changeurs de prises immergés dans de l'huile pour transformateur selon la EN 60296, mais peut également être utilisée pour des changeurs de prises à isolation gazeuse ou immergés dans d'autres liquides isolants.

INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION
___________
TAP-CHANGERS –
Part 1: Performance requirements
and test methods
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the
two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60214-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 14: Power
transformers
This first edition of IEC 60214-1 cancels and replaces IEC 60214 published in 1989. This first
edition constitutes a technical revision.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
14/457/FDIS 14/462/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
IEC 60214 consists of the following parts, under the general title Tap-changers:
Part 1: Performance requirements and test methods
Part 2: Application guide (under consideration)

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------

60214-1 © IEC:2003 – 13 –
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged
until 2007. At this date, the publication will be
 reconfirmed;
 withdrawn;
 replaced by a revised edition, or
 amended.

Part 1: Performance requirements
and test methods
1 Scope
This part of IEC 60214 applies to on-load tap-changers of both resistor and reactor types, off-
circuit tap-changers, and their motor drive mechanisms. It applies mainly to tap-changers
immersed in transformer oil according to IEC 60296 but may also be used for tap-changers with
gas insulation or immersed in other insulating liquids insofar as conditions are applicable.
It applies to power and distribution transformers of all types and also to reactors.
It does not apply to transformers and reactors mounted on railway rolling stock.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
on-load tap-changer
device for changing the tap of a winding, suitable for operation whilst the transformer is
energized or on load
3.2
tap selector
device designed to carry, but not to make or break, current, used in conjunction with a
diverter switch to select tap connections
3.3
diverter switch
switching device used in conjunction with a tap selector to carry, make or break currents in
circuits which have already been selected
NOTE Diverter switches are sometimes called arcing switches.
3.4
selector switch
switching device capable of making, carrying and breaking current, combining the duties of
a tap selector and a diverter switch
NOTE Selector switches are sometimes called arcing tap switches.
3.5
off-circuit tap-changer
device for changing the tap of a winding, suitable for operation only when the transformer is
de-energized
3.6
change-over selector
device designed to carry, but not to make or break, current, used in conjunction with the tap
selector or selector switch to enable its contacts and the connection taps to be used more
than once when moving from one extreme position to the other
3.7
coarse change-over selector
change-over selector connecting the tapped winding to either the coarse winding or the main
winding or parts thereof
3.8
reversing change-over selector
change-over selector connecting either end of the tapped winding to the main winding
3.9
transition impedance
resistor or reactor consisting of one or more units bridging the tap in use and the tap next to
be used, for the purpose of transferring load from one tap to the other without interruption or
appreciable change in the load current, at the same time limiting the circulating current for the
period that both taps are used
NOTE For reactor type tap-changers, the transition impedance (reactor) is commonly called a preventive auto
transformer. Reactor type tap-changers normally use the bridging position as a service position (mid-point or
centre tapped reactor tap-changers) and, therefore the reactor is designed for continuous operati
