3. Introduction
Distribution transformer is a static device which is
constructed with two or more windings.
Distribution transformer require minimum maintenance to
provide many years of reliable trouble free service.
Distribution transformer can energized for 24 hours a day
even when they don't carry any load.
Distribution transformer not only help to distribute the
correct levels of energy but also they combat energy waste
and core losses too.

7. Distribution Transformer (315 KVA)
A transformers consist of a magnetic core made from laminations of
sheet silicon steel (transformer steel) stacked.
A Transformer in which the core and windings are immersed in an
insulating liquid.
A transformer bring down (step down) the voltage and incidental level
of a power transmission line to a predetermined scale like 240/120 V.
A Transformer mainly work at efficiency at 60-70%, small size and
light, easy in installation, having low magnetic losses.

10. Conclusion
The selection of core diameter, flux density, core length, type of
winding and tap charger are relatively important to do the design of
distribution transformer.
The transformer oil is the most important of all insulating materials
used in transformers.
Four step cores are used for transformer design and this step core is
flexible for chosen rating.
Temperature rise is limited to avoid damage to insulation and inner
fault.
Both sides of primary and secondary windings are wound based on
the calculation of number of turns to be convenient for the users. 10
